I practiced writing code a lot during UROPs (research opportunities available to MIT undergrads). While UROPs are not required, most course VI (cs majors) that I know did at least one during their 4 years there.

I think the alternative being proposed though (no brand name but lots of drive) assumes lots of coding experience outside of the classroom.
