about Edlyft

Why Edlyft?

Learning CS for the first time is overwhelming and often fast paced. Edlyft helps students stay on track in their CS course with confidence.

How does it work?

Edlyft students have access to weekly live help sessions that are specific to their course and led by a student mentor from their school. Students can watch all past sessions on their own time the portal, along with personalized notes, study resources and practice exercises. They also can submit questions to their mentor and cohort 24/7.

How much does Edlyft cost?

Edlyft has a sliding scale subscription based on Expected Family Contribution (EFC) that starts at $15/wk for our 6 hours of support per week. Our model works so that students paying more for Edlyft subsidize the cost for students with need.
