Finance
Your New
Career Path.
At LEARN, we offer multiple ways to fund your coding education. With available scholarships, discounts, and industry leading lenders, we want to make it as easy as possible to get you in our coding classroom.
Meritize
Loans
For students who aren’t able to afford the LEARN tuition upfront, we provide loans through our financing partner, Meritize. Once your loan is approved, LEARN will reach out with the next steps in the admissions process.
Meritize looks beyond your FICO score and uses your previous academic, military, or work achievements to potentially improve your loan options.
Meritize allows you to defer payments for up to 3 months after graduation.
Meritize lets students who may lack a co-borrower improve their loan options by sharing their past merits.
Pay As You Go
LEARN academy and Climb Credit have partnered together for our ‘Pay as you go’ plan. Allowing learners to make payments toward the tuition throughout the four months of the full-stack coding bootcamp. This new payment option will also help students avoid interest and loan fees and allow them to pay over time rather than pay everything upfront.
VET TEC
LEARN academy is proud to announce we have been accepted into the VET TEC program. VET TEC (Veteran Through Technology Education Courses) is a benefit for Veterans who are off duty or near off duty. Veterans can use their GI benefits towards the VET TEC program to help launch their new careers in high-technology industries.
Scholarships
& Discounts
As part of our commitment to building an authentically representative, welcoming industry, LEARN Academy offers several scholarships and discounts and works with foundations and scholarship funds with the singular goal of widening the entryway to tech.
Our small business, ThoughtSTEM, is a partner of LEARN. As partners, we provide 1-month internship experiences for LEARN students after they learn Ruby/Javascript for 3 months. It's been a fantastic partnership - LEARN students have been excellently proficient after only 3 months of coding education and they always contribute positively to the projects they work on with us. We've had two groups of LEARN interns so far who worked on: (1) designing back-end software that we use manage our after-school coding programs for kids all around San Diego; (2) developing features of a virtual reality video game that will be…read more →
Through a concrete curriculum, extremely strong network, public speaking opportunities, and intensive job prep LEARN helped me land my first job as a developer within a week after my internship. Even after graduation, LEARN continues to provide me with tools to get out of my head and get into the world and make an impact through extended education opportunities at meetups and various networking events.
What mattered to me the most were the people. I found out about LEARN from attending an SD Ruby Meetup. One of the people, Rob Kaufman (co-founder of LEARN) was giving a talk that broke things down in a way that made it easy for me understand how parts of Rails functioned. That was huge because at that time, I did not have a clear idea of what Rails was. I think it also says a lot about how LEARN is so heavily involved in the San Diego Tech scene. The lead instructor of my cohort was influential with his…read more →
