I don't know anything about coding, but I suggest you look for a school that won't charge you tuition unless you find a job as a coder.

This is an example:

Since 2011, C4Q has provided free (or nearly free) 10-month-long courses for low-income and diverse students, supported by grants from organizations such as the Robin Hood Foundation, Google for Entrepreneurs, and Blackstone. This year, it introduced a new funding option aimed at making the program more sustainable: Students attend the school for free, but they agree to give 12% of their salaries back to the school for two years after they graduate.

It’s not a loan: If students don’t get jobs, they don’t pay anything. C4Q works with a network of companies to help place students and offers job search skills training.


This coding school is set up to fail if its students don’t get jobs
