    Wow! Darthmouth is a great school... I'll think about enrolling into the program. but $6,500 for certificate seems to be still expensive.
    You can get an IT diploma from UK university for only 2,600 GBP.

    The $51 per month is possible when they accept your loan application.

    They offer installment plan for those who don't want to use their loan.

    The following payment installment options are available:
    Pay in 6 installments

    • The first installment of $1,365 would be due immediately.
    • The second installment of $1,092 will be charged on August 29, 2020.
    • The third installment of $1,092 will be charged on September 28, 2020.
    • The fourth installment of $1,092 will be charged on October 28, 2020.
    • The fifth installment of $1,092 will be charged on November 27, 2020.
    • The sixth installment of $1,092 will be charged on December 27, 2020.

    So it costs $1k a month.

    For what it's worth (I can't say what certs are more valuable in this field), the Advanced Data Science Professional Certificate from IBM and the Data Science Specialization Certificate from Johns Hopkins are both $49/month* on Coursera.

    *This is a monthly enrollment fee, not an installment. The price depends on how fast you complete it.

    Either of those options are much less expensive.
