Upfront Plan
Under our Upfront Plan, you will pay the full tuition amount prior to starting your chosen program. This option provides the largest discounts to attend App Academy.
More Info
Climb Credit Financing
Climb Credit allows you to finance your App Academy tuition as monthly installments. Because there is an interest rate charged, it will be more expensive than Upfront pricing, but less expensive than our options for paying once you have a job. You can get a personal quote at Climb Credit without impacting your credit score.
More Info
Income Share Agreement (ISA)
Under our ISA, once you've graduated and have a job earning at least $50,000, you’ll begin to pay back tuition in monthly installments equal to 15% of your gross monthly income. You’ll continue making these payments for 36 months or until you’ve reached the ISA maximum for your program - whichever comes first. This plan is not available to California residents.
More Info
Deferred Plan
Under our Deferred Plan, once you've graduated and found a job, you will be required to make a flat monthly payment for your tuition.
