    • Gender
    • LGBTQ+
  • Non-Traditional Candidates

    • Career Changers
    • Non-Tech Work History
    • Non-CS Degrees
  • Focused on Product

    • Dedicated to In the Lab
    • Self-Starters
    • Curious and Scrappy

Applications for Cohort 5 are now open!

The application for Cohort 5, starting in January, is now open! Applications will close after 500 applicants or October 1, whichever comes first.

The application takes about 5 minutes to complete. Please add as much details as you can to increase your admissions chances.

At this time, we are only working with people in the US and in US-adjacent timezones. We expect to expand to other geographic regions in the future. You can still apply if you're outside our geographic area and we'll email you when we open up our expansion program.

In the Lab costs $0 for cohort participants at this time (yes, you read that right, it is free).

 

There will be 3 cohorts in 2024:

  • Cohort 5 (Winter 2024 - January through March)
  • Cohort 6 (Summer 2024 - April through July) 
  • Cohort 7 (Fall 2024 - August through November)
