.@LambdaSchool is absolutely bananas. I used to work in sociology and I made what I thought was decent money for a full-time professional.

The only way to make more was to take out student loans and spend two years in grad school for a $15,000/year raise.

I will have the opportunity to be an mentor to a student @LambdaSchool. This feels unreal from when I started this journey, unsure of if I could do it. Now I know I can, and I am privileged to help someone else achieve their goals.

The last day of Lambda Launch was so inspirational. I’m so ready for this journey ... 12 months can’t go by fast enough @LambdaSchool

Less then 6 weeks my time at @LambdaSchool will come to an end, this old dog learnt many new tricks and I owe it all to Lambda for taking a chance on me. Who thought an Appliance Repair Tech could become a Full Stack Developer?

Let the fun times begin!

Remote learning done right

Get real work experience

Master the technical skills employers need most by completing monthly group projects and by building real, ready-to-ship products with a team of other students.

Join our rapidly growing network

Build lifelong connections and friendships with other learners who can introduce you to new opportunities and offer support.

No tuition until you're hired

You’ll only pay tuition after you start making an annual income of $50,000 or more. Monthly payments are based on what you earn.

We help you find a job

Work with our team of experts who can help you source, interview, and land a job that fits your needs.

Lambda School grads are hired by thousands of companies of all sizes, from the fortune 100 to new start ups

Our ISA is an investment in you.

Most schools make money regardless of whether or not their students succeed. Lambda School takes a different approach. We'll cover the cost of your upfront tuition and you'll pay us back 17% of your income for two years once you're earning an annual income of $50,000 or more.‍The Lambda School Income Share Agreement at a glance:

Lambda School covers your tuition until you're making at least $50,000 a year. There's no down payment.

Once you’re hired, you’ll start making monthly payments based on your income. If your annual income dips below $50,000 for any reason, payments are automatically paused.

Payments end once you’ve reached the $30,000 cap or your payment schedule ends – whichever comes first.

The depth of a 4-year degree, the practicality of a bootcamp

Short 12-week bootcamps can only skim the surface of what you need to know to be successful as a web developer or data scientist, and the skyrocketing costs of college places it out of reach for many. For those seeking the depth of a 4-year degree at a fraction of the cost, Lambda School offers a new path to a rewarding career. We asked hundreds of top tech companies what skills they look for in candidates and then designed our live, remote programs to include learning activities that help you master each key skill. Lambda School covers not only the fundamentals of computer science, but also gives you the opportunity to apply your theoretical knowledge. Learn by building real products and graduate with over 900 hours of coding experience.
