I guess another question I have is what is a coder camp doing that it costs more (http://www.bootcamps.in/san-francisco/coder-camps/ http://www.bootcamps.in/san-francisco/coder-camps/) $9,900 for a 9 week (just over 2 months) course, when in state tuition for a year at University of Washington (https://admit.washington.edu/costs-and-financial-aid/total-cost-of-attendance#freshmen-transfer https://admit.washington.edu/costs-and-financial-aid/total-c...) is $10k for around 7 months and out of state is $34,791 for the same time. Eg are they really equivalent to a #12 ranked computer science school (https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/university-of-washington-3798/overall-rankings https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/university-of-washingto...)?

- arjie 10y agoNo one at the university is going to get a job after one year. Something like App Academy has access to companies and provides you with access to recruiters. Secondly it's the rapidity that's an advantage. The fact that they're nine weeks is an advantage. You have to value your time.
