My Opinion on UTI is good from what I have seen so far.I like the atmosphere around the school and I nhope I could make friends with new people.Also,that I hope I learn of more that I ever though that I knew about cars and explore other aspects of how it works in the automotive industry.This is my opinion on UTI from what I have seen so far.

Elisabeth - 12/04/2019

Great, would like to attend as a Freshman.

javier - 07/13/2019

It is the perfect school to enter if your passion is to work on cars to learn about them and make a career out of your passion. Coming out of high school I already knew this was the college I wanted to attend, for many reasons like example the graduation rate is very high meaning students that enter will come out a trained certified technician. Within six months of learning, you are able to work for the company of your choosing like BMW, Chevrolet, Ford and many more.

Anthony - 10/30/2018

I think it is a good school and I intend on entering the school and becoming a student there.

  2. What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

    In thinking back about high school I wish I would of tried harder than I did and I wish I did not feel stupid and out of place than my friends because I was in the special education classes. I feel that I just skipped through school becasue I wanted to graduate but didn't really know what I wanted to do. I tried to take an on line college class but it was difficult for me because of all the reading. I thought about the military becasue I didn't think I could attend college and be able to succeed. When I turned on the television and saw an ad for UTI I thought that this might just be the school for me and I went on line and found out all I could about the school and had my mom and step dad go to the school with me to tour it. Once I got into the school and saw what they offered I knew right then that I would be able to succeed. Thanks to my family helping me financially I am able to acheive my goals and dreams and know I will succeed in this school.
