Read the admissions page. It's a well-connected trade school for gifted students entering the tech industry as defined by SV, not a scalable alternative and repeatable model for general-purpose higher ed.

edit: This isn't judgemental. Nothing wrong with trade school But that's what this is.

Yes, now it's a very specific, tough to get in trade school.

You might recall it was quite a luxury to have a mobile phone not too long ago.

Demand for this kind of education might persuade others to implement a similar model, and I don't see any major roadblocks for other areas.

Employers will finally get graduates with work experience, as well as access to cheap intern labor.

Looks worth exploring if nothing else.
