What is Codam?
Codam is a local member of the 42 Network in Amsterdam. It uses the network’s project-based, peer-learning foundation, but the campus controls its application calendar, on-site rules, language, facilities, support, credentials, and local partnerships.
Shared foundation
Codam is local. The learning model belongs to the network.
Codam sits inside the 42 Network’s common foundation: project work, peer learning, peer evaluation, self-direction, and an immersive Piscine before the longer curriculum.
That shared model does not make Amsterdam interchangeable with another campus. Dates, eligibility checks, facilities, staff support, language, credentials, and partner relationships remain local.
Local record
What the official profile says about Codam.
The Network lists the campus at Kattenburgerstraat 7, Building 039, 1018 JA Amsterdam, The Netherlands and identifies Amsterdam, Netherlands as its location. The current linked campus record is Codam website ↗.
The official Network profile lists these local details: Located in the Marineterrein, an international innovation area, in the heart of Amsterdam; Our students enjoy a good meal with special discount at kanteen25, a culinary playground next to Codam. They are campus-profile claims checked on 9 August 2026, not permanent conditions or promises about candidate access.
Admissions
Use the campus website as the live application source.
42 Network confirms the school’s membership and published location. Current registration stages, check-ins, Piscine dates, waiting lists, identity requirements, age rules, accessibility arrangements, and language expectations belong to Codam.
Do not make a housing, visa, travel, or employment decision from an old search result. Recheck the official instructions when you register and again before any on-site stage.
Practical decision
Test the real plan for studying in Amsterdam.
Start with the published address: Kattenburgerstraat 7, Building 039, 1018 JA Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Test the journey from realistic accommodation at the hours you may arrive and leave, then price housing, meals, local transport, connectivity, and time away from paid work.
If you are applying from another country, ask Codam what it can and cannot provide for visas, residence, invitation documents, insurance, banking, and employment rights. Network membership does not remove local immigration or administrative rules.
Evidence boundary
This is a sourced directory profile, not a first-hand Codam review.
I studied at 42 Paris, later worked with the Network development team, and helped launch 42 Lisboa. I have not studied or worked at Codam.
This page therefore reports the official public record and the practical questions a candidate should verify. It does not rank the campus, predict selection, or treat local outcomes as universal.

Common questions
Codam: the campus, local context, and what to verify.
Is Codam tuition-free?
The 42 model is presented as tuition-free. Housing, food, travel, equipment, insurance, visas, and lost work time are separate costs.
Do I need a diploma to apply to Codam?
The network model does not use the conventional academic gate. Confirm current age, identity, residency, and administrative requirements directly with the campus.
Do I need to know how to code before the Codam Piscine?
Previous coding is not the standard network prerequisite. The Piscine is still intensive and requires research, practice, peer interaction, and repeated attempts.
When is the next Codam Piscine?
Use the official Codam application flow for current dates. Network profiles and search snippets can remain online after a session has passed.
What language does Codam use?
Language can differ across the application, administration, peer community, and project material. Ask the campus what level is needed at each stage.
Does Codam award a recognised qualification?
Credentials vary by campus, country, and pathway. Ask for the current credential name, level, eligibility conditions, and awarding body in writing.
Can this guide help me get selected by Codam?
No. It can help you understand the public record and prepare a realistic plan. Selection belongs entirely to the campus.
