They definitely are and attendance is down across the board. Several programs have shutdown or consolidated, and the top programs are seeing lower enrollment from the peaks.

That doesn’t make much sense because the amount of CS majors have risen 4.09% since last year. Which programs have shut down that you know of?

Sorry BOOTCAMPS have shutdown, not CS majors. I think more people are shifting to degree too

HackReactor also slowed down hard after the government money stopped flowing in

Can you provide any kind of primary or secondary evidence of layoffs or cohort consolidation? I haven't heard anything, but I did suspect the 19 week program was promoted to expand the audience and get more people signed up.
