Scholarships and Financial Support

Money should not stop you from learning tech

At Codam, your education is completely free. You don’t pay for classes, books, or computers. We do understand that a full-time study can still be financially challenging. You still need to pay rent, food, travel, or a health insurance.

If you’re concerned about finances, Codam can help. We offer monthly financial assistance and housing support for students who can show us they need it.

Your talent matters, not your bank account

We believe that everyone deserves a chance to learn, no matter how much money they have. That’s why Codam has an Assistance Program — for students who need financial help during their studies.

What kind of help can Codam give you?

Our assistance program can help you during the Selection Piscine and after the start of your studies in our Curriculum.

During the Piscine

Joining our 4-week Piscine can mean you will miss out on income. That's why we can offer Piscine scholarships and travel assistance.

Piscine financial assistance

  • Up to €1000 scholarships. Limited availability.

  • Travel assistance. We offer monthly reimbursements for off-peak public transport subscriptions.
  • During your studies

    If you get accepted into Codam, you can receive up to €700 per month to help with your living costs like rent, food, and transportation. We can also offer housing options.

    Housing support from Codam

  • Sponsored studios by Student Experience

  • Sponsored student rooms at Social Hub

  • Rental housing with Student Experience
  • Interest free loan options

    If you need more help, you can apply for an interest-free loan through our partner TechMeUp:

    • You can get a loan between €2,500 and €7,500
    • You’ll only pay back the loan after you find a job
    • You don’t have to pay interest and extra fees

    You can apply for financial assistance if you:

    • Are between 18 to 30 years old
