Turing cohorts kick off every seven weeks and the typical student graduates about seven months later. To be eligible for admission, prospective students must be at least 18 years of age and physically located within three timezones of Mountain Time (UTC-9 to UTC-5, covering most of North, Central, and some of South America).
Incoming students are not expected to have any particular background in Computer Science or Math. Approximately 60% of students have a college degree, but none is required. If you have the will to work hard, can be a great teammate, and enjoy solving tough challenges, then Turing is probably a good fit for you.
Most applicants will be invited to a live interview, typically conduced with our admissions team. They'll talk to you about your interest in Turing and answer any questions you may have!
Check out these Interview Tips to help you get ready.
Candidates are typically notified of their interview results within 72 hours.
If you pass the interview, then it's time to get enrolled! You'll be invited to register in Populi, our Student Information System. In that process you'll pick a start date for your Mod 0 and Mod 1. The system will generate an Enrollment Agreement for you to sign, then invite you to pay your $1200 deposit to hold your spot.
Once you're enrolled you'll want to meet with our Financial Services team. They'll help you understand tuition, loans, and any grants or scholarships you might be eligible for. Our goal is to not let finances stand in the way of a great student.
Before you think "I could never afford that," set up some time to talk with our team!
Once we have your deposit and financial plan set up, then we'll confirm your Mod 0 enrollment and ship your laptop.
The last step of the admissions process is to participate in and pass Mod 0. It's generally offered a few weeks before your chosen Mod 1 start date and will consist of four online sessions with your fellow students and an instructor. Complete the Mod 0 assignments, earn a passing grade, and you're ready for Mod 1!
