This was a great choice for me as i feel 100% more confident to continue down this path. I feel now i have a basic foundation and want to continue to build off that. I recommend anyone who is curious and just wants to see if it is for them to take the short 4 week fundumentals class. It was inexpensive and you will have support from all angles to help you through it. I can't wait to continue and see what oppertunities await me.- AnonymousStudent • Web Development Fundamentals • DallasFeb 11, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Very rewarding
What led me to NuCamp was the idea of a career change. I've always been interested in anything IT and NuCamp was a great way to get my feet wet at a very affordable price. After I finish with NuCamp I hope to apply what I've learned to be able to further my goals in getting a job that will work for me and my success in the future. - AnonymousGraduate • Full Stack Web and Mobile Application Development • OnlineFeb 06, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Nucamp Review
I choose to enroll in Nucamp because I wanted to get into web development with no prior experience. It was a great decision because I now have the tools I need to build what I want, even if it includes material that wasn't taught in this class. I hope to build new, innovative websites with what I have learned. - AnonymousStudent • St. LouisJan 29, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Nucamp is for everyone!!!
I came from a hands-on background. Choosing Nucamp was not only a great price, but it was a great transition into the world of IT. The classes are quick and you will have to apply yourself. The end result IS worth it. I will take what I have learned and apply it all to the pursuit of a cyber security degree. - AnonymousStudent • Hybrid (Online & In-person)Jan 28, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Nucamp: Pleasant surprise
Initially the price was the main deciding factor to start this bootcamp but at the end, the instructor and structure are what kept me in this course. I'm hoping to get my foot into the door in the tech/dev industry. This has proven to be the right choice for me so far and can't wait to reap the rewards. - AnonymousData Analyst • Student • Hybrid (Online & In-person)Jan 28, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Nucamp Going Strong
Going Well, learning a lot. need to improve my portfolio so i can stand out as a potential candidate for work. The key to succeeding in this bootcamp is to always do the work and put in the hours required. especially if you are new a lot of things will seem confusing but as long as you are consistent you will succeeds - AnonymousStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • Los AngelesJan 24, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Amazing full-circle course
Amazing course content for the SQL with Python course. Learning the basics of SQL and then utilizing what we learned about databases to create fully interactive programs from client to server was fantastic. I specifically enjoyed learning more about Flask and how to use it to accomplish this. - AnonymousMusic Instructor • Student • San JoseJan 11, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

I have attended both 2U & Bloc bootcamps for softwate dev & ux design previously. I have also done self guided youtube learning, bought udemy courses and have a subscription to code academy. My hope waa that Nucamp would be a middle ground.
I was planning on attending nucamps fundamentals & backend course as a way to sharpen up my skills after working a less technical, but related role in software development for three years. After the first day of looking at materials decided to cancel.
When cancelling they kept over $100 from both registrations as a registration fee even though I had not attended any classes. Customer servicr is handled by a third party service based in India.
The course material is primarily self guided with one day a week used to review lesson material. The material is simple checks and reviews with some larger projects.
In my opinion, you're better off watching Traversy & others on YouTube, buying courses from Udemy & joining codeacademy.
Also, it currently seems impossible to stop emails from coming Ive unsubscribed, and marked as spam but I keep getting emails.
Save your money for a real bootcamp or just do self guided learning.Stephanie of Nucamp

Hello anonymous student,
It feels a bit unfair to be reviewed based on a few minutes of looking over our curriculum and actually not participating at all in our bootcamp. Unfortunately, you missed most of what makes Nucamp unique:
- engaging with your dedicated instructor and classmates in your classroom,
- participating in your weekly live workshops,
- working on challenging assignments with your classmates, receiving feedback and a grade from your instructor, and learning from it,
- working on your portfolio project,
- leveraging our career services including 1:1 career coaching sessions,
- graduating.
We also do not have a "third party" team in India. Our support is handled in the US and is our own.
We hope to see you back in our bootcamp and have you go through the whole learning experience. - AnonymousGraduate • TulsaDec 31, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Excellent
I have read in an article that there will be more IT jobs in job market and less people qualified for it. I am new to coding, no prior experience. I needed a good Bootcamp that works with my schedule. That's why I selected Nucamp. I learned a lot with this Bootcamp. Hoping to get a job in IT field. - AnonymousStudent • MiamiDec 24, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A

horrible, I had a rude instructor [name redacted]. The website is confusing at first. They don't have a code to compare your code to see where you made the mistake. I am very disappointed. I have been through bootcamps before and never had this problem. I finished shecodes boot camp and it was amazing.Stephanie of Nucamp

Hello, and first let me say I'm sorry you feel that way about your experience. We have looked into the situation that led to your feedback and would like to clarify a few things that we hope will help with the remaining of your bootcamp if you choose to continue.
First, we understand that you wrote your review after the first couple of weeks of your bootcamp. We hope that the next weeks and following workshops will improve and that our response will help with that.
Regarding providing the finished code at the workshop, this is indeed something that we do not want to do as it would hurt the learning experience and the acquisition of coding skills. We offer finished code during the week as students practice, but the purpose of the end-of-week workshop is to force students to think critically about the code that needs to be written. Providing the finished code would go against that, and would be a disservice to the student learning journey.
You mentioned in another review that you could only attend 2 hours of the 4-hour workshop, and wanted to be given the finished code during these 2 hours. This made the situation more difficult to handle for the instructor. We looked at the feedback your instructor received while teaching your class and could not find an issue with it (4.8 out of 5 is considered excellent). We hope that you will be able to dedicate the full 4 hours for future workshops, we also advise you to study regularly each day.
Best of luck for the future. We hope you will reconsider continuing your bootcamp with us.
Stephanie. - AnonymousStudent • Back End, SQL, and DevOps with Python • DallasDec 21, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Excellent experience!
I enrolled when I found the opportunity to pursue the passion I had when I first went to college. Computer programming has always been the field I was interested in and Nucamp offers a way that I can finally reach that goal that is afforadable and fits my schedule. I'm excited to finally be working toward a career and not working in dead job after dead end job.
