I enrolled in the University of Minnesota's Full ********************* Program (Coding Bootcamp) full-time for 12 weeks, with a total tuition of $12,245, Monday through Friday, 10 AM to 2:30 PM. The University of Minnesota partners with edX, part of 2U ***** for the coding Bootcamp, so there are multiple businesses at play here. My first class started Monday, December 12th, 2022, and I decided to drop the course on Thursday, December 15th, 2022, because this class is NOT designed to be entry-level or for beginners. Before enrolling in the program, I spoke with my admissions counselor, *************************, both over the phone and by email. I told ****** on multiple accounts that I had absolutely NO experience with computer coding. ****** clearly stated that no experience is required and that this is an entry-level course. Also, this course does not require any prerequisites, such as a bachelor's degree (which I have) or an introductory coding course of some sort; it requires nothing. So, I decided to trust the admissions department and enroll in the Coding Bootcamp to obtain a certificate in full-stack web development. Over the course of the few days while I was in the Bootcamp, I sat in our virtual class, not understanding 98% of what the instructor was teaching. The instructor was not teaching the basics and lecturing me as if I had been coding for years. I had NO coding experience, NO experience with the software, and EVERYTHING was new to me. Not only was the information way too complex, but the pace at which the information was being taught was way too fast for a beginner. For example, we spent one day learning HTML, which is a primary computer programming language. For reference, university computer science courses can take months or even a semester to learn HTML. I was not taught how to code, and I certainly do not know how to code in HTML. I am getting a full-tuition refund, but I feel entirely deceived and lied to because this is NOT a class for beginners.
