For individuals looking for an alternative route to a computer programming education or career switchers interested in breaking into the tech industry, coding bootcamps can be a great option.

Compared to traditional four-year degrees, bootcamps tend to be significantly less expensive. However, funding a bootcamp education can still be a weighty investment.

Since bootcamp students don’t qualify for federal financial aid, many bootcamps offer scholarships to help alleviate students’ financial burden and to make a tech education more accessible to people from all backgrounds.

Our coding bootcamp scholarship directory features more than 40 unique scholarships. It is organized according to the scholarship’s target recipients, with scholarships presented by reward amount in descending order.
