How can I cover the cost of my bootcamp?
Here are the most common bootcamp payment options:
*Not an available option through Ascent.
Loan Financing – A loan involves borrowing money upfront to cover your program costs, then paying it back over time plus accrued interest. It typically covers the program’s tuition and sometimes your cost of living as well.
Deferred Tuition – Deferred Tuition plans typically allow you to defer making payments until you’ve reached some milestone, such as graduating or separating from your program, obtaining a qualified offer of employment, etc. Ascent products that support Deferred Tuition programs are also loans that are required to be repaid, so keep in mind that interest does typically continue to accrue during deferment and any other periods of non-payment.
Payment Upfront – This option entails paying your full tuition amount upfront. Some schools may give a tuition discount for this payment option.*
Payment Plans* – This option allows you to break up your tuition amount into smaller monthly payments, typically over 12 months. There may be a service fee to choose this option.*
Income Share Agreements* – Also known as ISAs, this option allows you to postpone tuition payments until you have started a job paying over the minimum salary amount set by your school, often $40,000-$60,000. Once in repayment, you will pay a certain percentage of your salary until you hit the repayment cap, typically 1-2 times the initial tuition amount. The benefit of an ISA is that if your salary drops below the income threshold or if you are unemployed, your payments pause.*
Scholarships – Many bootcamps and organizations award scholarships to students that do not need to be paid back. Ascent’s scholarship giveaways may help cover the cost of your school-related expenses – including tuition, books, rent, groceries, parking and transportation, and more, as well as other monthly bills and purchases.

Real reviews from real customers
“I was really shocked how quick and simple the process was. The interface of the website was also easy to navigate and laid out what was needed from me in a clear way. The biggest factor in me choosing Ascent was that they offered a living expense with my tuition loan! It is like they understood that financing education, or a new growth chapter, comes with more than securing payment for school. Affording school is one thing, but affording to live while in school is another. I really appreciated the options.”
- Cara D.
“Working with Ascent was an overall great process. I first loved the fact that they were already connected to Flatiron School, the online Coding Bootcamp I wanted to enroll in. Ascent made the application process of getting a student loan for Flatiron a breeze. The online application was easy to fill out. And their customer service was easy to contact and work with.”
- Alan C.
“After years of working a job I was not happy doing, I was glad to receive financial assistance from Ascent. This allowed me to pursue the education I needed to learn a new skill that I enjoy doing. The application process was very easy and straightforward. The multiple payment plans was a nice bonus. Working with Ascent is simple and easy. I would recommend Ascent to anyone looking to further their education or learn a new skill and needing financial assistance.”
- Cody K.
“Everything was so quick and easy! I’ve never taken out a loan before so I was nervous about taking one but Ascent made everything so organized and convenient for me that I will be forever grateful. Thank you, Ascent! I just have to worry about classes now and pay Ascent back later.”
- Jenny K.
“My experience with [Ascent] has been great! They communicated quickly, thoroughly and transparently. This made it easy to make the decision to secure a loan and start my learning experience with confidence.”
- Zachry Y.
“I just can’t say enough good things about my experience. The application was fast and efficient. You get to know almost immediately if you are approved. It was so easy to navigate through their site. Thank you Ascent for making my education possible.”
- Pietrovitch E.
“Making a decision to attend a trade school can be a huge jump. [Ascent] took the pressure of financing off my shoulders by creating a virtually seamless process that was more or less always in the background and not consuming brainpower while I setup my courses with Career Foundry for UI design.”
- David C.
