Past Scholarship Winners
A small risk is all it took and as a result, I was rewarded with an amazing community and a fulfilling career that is helping me go further than I could ever imagine. I used to apply to jobs, but now jobs apply to me!Sherwin Garcia-Obregon - Web Development Part-Time
I couldn't have made a better choice. Ironhack staff treated us like family, were truly invested in our success, and provided a life-changing experience. I am so happy with the decision to attend and am so proud to be an Ironhacker.Brenda Matos - UX/UI Design Full-Time
It is one of the best decisions that I have made to date. I enrolled with the intent to further my skills as a developer and put myself in a better position to enter the market as a professional but I walked away with so much more. Everyone is extremely hands on and will go above and beyond to ensure that your experience is one that promotes your success.Daniel Soraluz - Web Development Full-Time
