Those terms end up collecting far more than coding bootcamps normally charge, so one of two things is going on. The first possibility is that the academy either believes that many of its graduates will not find high paying jobs and that they therefore need to recoup lost costs from those graduates that do find work. The second is that they're looking to exploit their potential recruits' present poverty by charging them far more in future dollars than anyone would pay in present dollars. Neither option reflects well on the people who run this bootcamp.
