"Waste of time and money"

I ran through the full stack software development in Java, having to take longer than 33 weeks due to lack of or incorrect learning materials. I also had major issues finding support either from the instructor or any mentors (at the time there may have... Read More

Is this course worth the full tuition? Hell no.

I'd be feeling a lot better if I only paid $300 for this since that's pretty much all it may be worth to me. I'm nowhere closer to a software development career than I was before. There are very few mentors at any point to assist, the instructors act like you're supposed to already know this stuff, and the material is so convoluted and packed you need to have had 2-3 years padt experience to seemingly understand it.

Don't even get started on career services. They basically outright lied stating they had connections in the industry and that employers are lining up to hire Woz U grads. Nope. Never happened to me. Applied to all the positions I could regarding entry level software development. Not a single call back or email requesting an interview. My assigned career counselor shoved a bunch of youtube and clickbait articles my way about interviewing. He also gave me several search results off of indeed.com that I had already done myself. Never did a resume review.

At this point, I am staring at a larger pool of student loan debt with no forseeable way of paying it down quickly thanks to Woz U's poor attempt at a bootcamp.
