Study First, Pay Later: Income Share Agreement (ISA)


At Coyotiv, our promise goes beyond a new life where our students can do their dream job; we also want them to take part in a mission of making the world a better place and build an inclusive culture to set a new standard for our industry. That’s why, we don’t only offer a first-class software engineering training, who’ll make them the future industry leaders, but we always look for new ways to make it more accessible.

We are thrilled to announce you that we are beginning a new chapter of our journey to bridge the financial gap. Through our partnership with CHANCEN eG, we can now support more people who are considering changing their careers, regardless of their financial situation. CHANCEN eG is a social enterprise that will take care of your tuition fees with its Income Share Agreements. Only after you start working in a company or establish your own startup, you begin making income-based repayments.

Now, nothing will keep you from achieving your dreams!

What’s CHANCEN eG and Income Share Agreement (ISA)?

Here’s a brief overview of how ISA works:

Study first

While you focus on Coyotiv’s full-stack development course, CHANCEN eG will cover 100% of your tuition fees with its income-sharing agreement (ISA).

Start repaying after finding a job

Contrary to regular loans, your repayments are made to the Chancen eG community, and they are based on your income. You do not have a fixed amount of debt, but rather a repayment plan that is tailored to suit your individual financial capacity.

Repay based on your income

Repayments only start when you earn above the minimum threshold of 27,000 Euros gross. This ensures that the repayment plan is only activated when you can really afford it.

The repayment stops

The repayment value is capped and reaches a maximum amount. A high income does not mean that the repayments are excessively high.

Application Steps

Let’s take a look at how this option can work for you. This financial aid solution is applicable to Coyotiv’s full-time software engineering course.
