We understand your education is an important investment, and we strive to make tuition as easy and accessible as possible.
Payment options are also covered on our Tuition Page. You don't have to choose your tuition payment plan before you apply—you'll have a chance to choose your tuition approach when enrolling, and, if applicable, you will receive an invoice shortly after with additional instructions.

Do I have to use Ascent Funding or Climb Credit?
No, you may use any lender of your choice, so you should feel free to obtain quotes from any lender you choose. There are a number of affordable programs out there, so be sure to do some research.
Installment Plans for Full-Time and Part-Time Students
Installment plans are available for both full and part-time programs. Here's how that works:
- 50% of the total tuition is due (10) business days before the start of class. The remaining balance is to be paid across (4) equal payments throughout the program at specific intervals (and before graduation).
- Making those payments on time is a requirement in order to stay in class, and you must pay your tuition in full in order to graduate.
Community and Government Funding
UPDATE Nov 14, 2022: Currently, we are unable to accept WIOA at this time.
Student Aid & 529 Plans
Most coding bootcamps like DigitalCrafts are considered certificate-granting post-secondary programs, so 529 plans or federal student aid are not applicable.
You Don't Have to Decide Your Payment Plan Before Enrolling
If you're unsure which payment option is right for you, that's ok! You can decide after you apply, and you can change your mind until the class begins.
How to Make Payments
Deposits
Enrollment deposits ($99) may be paid via credit card with no additional fee. If you decide not to enroll before your start date, your deposit is refundable in full.
