If you're interested in gSchool, you should take a look at the following:

http://catalystclass.com/

http://devbootcamp.com/ (mentioned elsewhere in this thread)

http://appacademy.io/

http://hackbrightacademy.com/

http://flatironschool.com/

All are based in SF, except Flatiron, which is in NYC.

(I'm a cofounder at Catalyst. Ask me anything!)



I fully buy into the value of apprenticing and have been trying to get into a program since moving to SF this summer. You'll be seeing my application shortly. Any suggestions on the video that would maximize my chances of acceptance?


Don't read from a script. Be yourself. Talk about something you think is really interesting. Looking forward to reading your application!


It's sent!


be original! While I don't run the program, I know Jim Deters well, and if you email me: bart@fullcontact.com, I can put in a good word.


Don't forget about The Starter League (http://starterleague.com) formerly known as Code Academy in Chicago.
