  • What is the admissions process like? And who can apply to the

    Data Science and Machine Learning Bootcamp?

    We’re able to accept applicants for the Data Science and Machine Learning Bootcamp from the following U.S. states. If you currently reside in a state where we don’t yet have approval, you can still submit your application and our Admissions team will follow up with you once they have updates regarding your eligibility. 

    To complete the application process, each applicant must complete the following steps: 1) submit an online application, 2) complete a non-technical interview with the Admissions team, and 3) complete the technical assessment.

    At each of these three stages, our admissions committee reviews your application and determines your preparedness to succeed. We assess applicants on (1) programming experience, (2) math experience, (3) communication skills, (4) personality traits of curiosity, grit, and passion, (5) motivation to join the bootcamp and (6) potential overall fit within Metis. If the committee agrees that the applicant has the potential for success, the applicant is informed in writing of their acceptance within 2 business days of completing the technical assessment.
