Make School was a non-profit organization that provided education and career support to underrepresented students in computer science, offering a project-based Bachelor's degree program that resulted in high-earning tech career placements. As of August 2021, the organization transitioned its academic program to Dominican University of California and now focuses on scholarship funding for former students.
