Hacker School is 4 days a week (at least this batch and last batch). You can definitely work part time during HS. I worked during the last batch of hacker school, and as a commenter above says, it's possible to live (he's doing it!) in NYC paying $650/mo in rent.

That doesn't look like an arbitrary social barrier designed to exclude the many to me. MOOCs are still there, and still awesome.

It does seem like there are probably lots of formal and informal ways of getting someone there if they've got the potential and desire. That's really good to know!
