i have recently just enrolled and start school june, 20th. from what i do know i am very excited to be a board and better my life. I knew that me going back to school and starting a career was the best choice for me to take care of my unborn son who is due 08/15/2019. I just hope to get help and grow, and to be the best father i can be.

Jason - 07/10/2018

This place is a joke, a scam and a waste of time. They have 2 programs that do essentially the same things, yet they are separated from each other simply because of money. The course descriptions aren't even correct and informational to the students about what really goes on in the classroom. The instructors act passive and hardly wants to help outside of class hours. I wouldn't ever recommend anyone go here, even if you were out of options.

Steven - 12/30/2016

If you have a specific program in mind it is a great start, but I would not attend just for basic classes. I do not believe it is accredited. Also, it can be hard to contact a lot of the offices such as financial aid or advisers without actually going in and talking to them. The nursing program and the nursing instructors are awesome though!
