    Galvanize Services review

    The Galvanize’s admission counseling has been super helpful to me. I was trying to apply for MS Perfume Sciences in France , since it’s a niche course I was finding it a little difficult. But I trusted Galvanize with their process and they helped me at every step, from preparing my application documents till visa process , when and where required. I would like to thank Galvanize for their services, particularly Manasa Kavuluri for being available all the time.

    GRE flash course

    It is a good course, on par with GRE level. And some practice tests are harder than actual GRE, which makes it little bit easy to tackle GRE questions. I would surely recommend this course for GRE prep.

    I went to the Galvanize Data Science Immersive and all i got was a huge pay raise and job security

    Background:
    I attended the Data science immersive in Austin from December of 2019 to March 2020. I have a psychology degree from a foreign university, which i graduated from relatively recently, and had a large amount of trouble finding work after university. I interviewed for several data analyst positions, but had hit a wall in terms of knowledge base. I found Galvanize after getting a good recommendation from a hack reactor alumnus and friend. 

    Experience:
     I really enjoy...

    The Positive Change You've Been Looking For

    The Data Analyst Training Accelerator has been the most impactful education I've received in my adult life. Transitioning from a career in finance, it was difficult to land a role in data without working experience. What this program will give you is so much more than a slide deck.

    From Day One, you are a Data Analyst. Per the curriculum, you can expect intensive, hands-on coding learned in an open forum format. There is no such thing as a silly question. After all, you have to be...

    Data Science Immersive

    Having just learned python, specifically to get into this program, I was excited yet apprehensive about starting this course.  Now looking back, taking this course was an incredibly worthwhile and valuable experience.  Sure you can find similar content online and learn by yourself.  However, the real value I found in Galvanize was the structure, live-setting, accountability, instructors, classmates, career services, and networking opportunities.  I found my current position through the g...

    Data Science Immersive

    Taking this immersive was one of the bet choices I’ve made during my academic career! I’ve learned so much about Data Science and not just theory like most University courses would be, but application too. I would 100% recommend this course to anyone trying to get into the Data Science field or people just interested in how to apply Data Science to what they already do. 

    The instructional staff is extremely helpful and educated on the topics. They will assist you in any area that ...

    I'm a recent SF graduate w a background in consulting. I'm really impressed and in love with everything about the DSI! 
    Organization and Structure: the organization of this program is insane. Every minute of every hour is designed with purpose. It's very structured and right from the beginning, you'll get a Google calendar detailing the agenda for every day of the program, and rarely do we ever deviate from the plan or even our punctuality.

    Data Science Immersive

    The course was a challenging but a rewarding experience. I barely knew python the year prior to starting the course, however using their prep material I was able to get to a level that prepared me for the course. The course does not waste time teaching python, it is taught in python so the better prepared you are the more material you will be able to follow. However the amount of coding you will be doing will definitely improve your python and problem solving skills. The course is very h...

    Data Science Bootcamp

    First of all, I was impressed by preparatory step prior the course. For the long time I was looking for such a constructive and structured python tutorial with lot's of practice. It helped to become toned and prepared for the bootcamp. The week 0 and 13 following weeks have been very intense in knowledge and experience. Curriculum was well constructed, team followed the plan  minute-by-minute. Emotional aspect was treated well. We had time for retrospective thoughts and could share them....

    Highly Recommend!

    I had an incredible experience taking the Galvanize Data Science Immersive program (remote campus).  For reference, I came to the program with a strong technical background, but with very little programming experience.  
    What sets Galvanize apart is the rigorous instruction and career support.  
    My two instructors had a wealth of industry experience, so they were able to make real-world connections for each topic.  The daily assignments (...
