FAQs

How does the admissions process work?

1. Fill out our easy non-committal Application Form. 

2. Receive a call from Admissions, to find out if your motivations, long term goals, availability, and determination are a good fit for the bootcamp. It's also a chance for you to get your burning questions answered! 

3. Take a technical test in English to test your basic logic skills. No need to prepare—just make sure you have enough time to take the test uninterrupted. Once you have passed this test, our Admissions team will be in touch with you. 

4. Choose how to fund your bootcamp from our selection of financing options and payment plans. Consult your Admissions advisor if you're not sure which one is right for you. 

5. Pay your deposit before the bootcamp starts to confirm your place.

Do I need my own laptop?

Every Ironhacker needs their own computer, but you don't need the latest iMac to get the job done! 


For Cybersecurity you'll need:

- Mac or Windows (Linux not ideal, but possible with a graphical user interface and a normal browser)

- 8GB of RAM minimum

- Not older than 5 years

- Stable internet connection


Note: If you're using a device that doesn't belong to you (eg, a company computer), you'll need to be granted full admin rights.

What's the difference between the Full-Time and Part-Time format?

Full-time and part-time Ironhackers receive the same quality education and career support, but each format comes with its own benefits to better fit your goals, lifestyle, financial situation, and state of being. Consider carefully which one makes the most sense for you. Keep in mind that both require the same amount of dedication from you, and will also include some independent work outside of class time.


Part-time is a great choice if you're looking for more flexibility and want to work while studying, need to balance your bootcamp with other commitments or just want more time for info to sink in. Full-time can help you change careers more quickly, and is great for a more immersive experience, which allows you to get help more frequently from teaching staff and your fellow Ironhackers.


Our Admissions team will be able to advise you during the application process, and figure out which option is the best for you.

Will I get an official certificate after completion of the program?

Ironhack provides a private certificate that proves that the program was completed. The bootcamps are not recognized by the traditional standards of the Education administration. Due to its intensive and hands-on format, it wouldn't be possible to adapt the content and schedules to the official requirements. However, for some campuses you can get public financing to study with us.

What are the requisites to access the bootcamp?

There are no knowledge requirements for our bootcamps. As long as you have sufficient proficiency in the language of instruction, basic logical skills, enough time, and most importantly motivation, you're fit for a bootcamp. Each bootcamp has students from different backgrounds so if you're starting from scratch with your tech knowledge, you're not alone. The Prework ensures that everyone has the same solid foundation to succeed in the bootcamp.
