Programs & Format
What does a typical session look like? expand_more
Sessions are a mix of structured teaching, 1-on-1 mentorship, and applied work. You always leave a session with a concrete next step — code to write, a paper section to draft, or a profile change to make.
Duration
How long does a program take? expand_more
Most programs run 8–16 weeks, depending on the goal. Job-support sprints are usually shorter (4–6 weeks); research paper support often runs longer because it follows the paper's timeline.
Online vs In-person
Are sessions online or in-person? expand_more
All sessions are online by default, so students from anywhere can join. We occasionally host in-person workshops — these are announced via email to enrolled students.
Pricing
How much do programs cost? expand_more
Pricing depends on the program and intensity. We share a transparent quote on the intro call, and we offer payment plans and student discounts.
Do you offer scholarships? expand_more
Yes — we set aside a portion of every cohort for need-based scholarships. Mention it in your intake form and we'll share the application.
