Q&A

Is it required?
No, participation in the programming bootcamp is entirely optional. As the program has matured we have learned that students can always benefit from additional preparatory instruction in programming.

Is financial aid available?
The Bootcamp is a non-credit bearing course and as a result, financial aid is not available.

Will housing be provided?
Housing will not be provided to students during the bootcamp. We encourage students to explore the many housing options available to them here in Winston-Salem. For your convenience, we have developed a housing guide as a reference.
