At Lambda you charge 17% of the first two years of salary (down from 3 years previously). At a salary of $80,000 that's 27 thousand of tuition. That seems extremely expensive for a non-accredited education.

The pricing was never three years. And built into that is expensive instructors (hailing from Stanford, Berkeley, NASA), small class sizes, potential default, and the ability to attend all other LambdaSchool classes in perpetuity. So for about the price of 1 semester of private tuition (or about 50% more than the top bootcamps), it's not unreasonable, especially when attached to a guarantee you'll be paid $90k/yr while you're paying for it. It's capped at $30k so that's the maximum payback. Not sure what the pricing will be long-term.
