The instructors are very friendly, knowledgeable, and hope for their students success. The whole attitude is at the College is so upbeat and friendly. Its a really great school dedicated to helping people help themselves!!
*The COO of the company is a partner and will preach “Student Success!” While he takes your money with a gleam in his eye.
*The school is struggling and has had many lay-offs to cover the “Lack of numbers” They have closed down a number of programs and are constantly cutting back in order to survive.
*As a student, YOU ARE A NUMBER. The school is “for profit”. It’s all about the money.
*Admission reps are held accountable to their numbers and are fired if they do not meet the “quota”. They call, text or email. Their state of employment depends on it.
*I have seen many unethical tactics taken by the Sr. Team. Cutting costs with RIFS, adjusting PTO of employees (without notification to the employees), cutting benefits, and with all of these cuts they manage to give generous raises to the senior team members of the organization. (Change a couple job titles, and swap around some responsibilities to make it look legit on paper, No Problem!)
The main advise I can give anyone is to DO YOUR HOMEWORK about this school before enrolling!! The costs can affect you for a life time.
What does Eagle Gate College have that’s SO special to charge triple/quadtriple for a non-transferable degree? If you qualify for PELL, SLCC Associate Degree wouldn’t really cost anything out of pocket. With Eagle Gate College’s Associate Degree, you’re at paying TREMENDOUS amounts out of pocket even after PELL (Free Grant) pays to the school. Why? Why? They have nothing better than another ‘state’ school of MUCH MUCH lower tuition – or free with PELL at SLCC and other state colleges. But, Eagle Gate College DOSEN’T have anything better than a ‘state’ school where your credits transfer and employers accept ‘state’ schools diplomas such as: – U of U – BYU – Weber State – SLCC etc………
Eagle Gate Offers False Advitertisements/Dreams/Motivations. Their admissions team is a trained car salesman organization. Not an educational instituion.
Have you noticed that NO state school (U of U – BYU – Weber State SLCC ETC) has a call center team such as Eagle Gate College. These schools are confident to have students walk-in and register. Eagle Gate College ‘CALLS’ – ‘HARRASSES’ to twist your arm to come in. Why is this? Why does Eagle Gate College need to make calls? Because they are a low-level quality school – for profit – need numbers – the part owner is in the management. Eagle Gate College makes the calls to make the profits. Out of every dollar a student spends at Eagle Gate .23 cents goes towards education, the residual goes to the POCKETS of the owner and employees.
PLEASE STAY AWAY. MAKE SMART CHOICES IN YOUR EDUCATION. GOING TO EAGLE GATE COLLEGE SAYS 2 THINGS ABOUT YOUR ENDEVORS:
1. You didn’t go to a state college and found out financial information and costs.
2. You were ‘used-car’ salesman’ed into going to Eagle Gate College.
CAUTION – BEWARE. Eagle Gate College is STRUGGLING. They will shuttler their doors one day. How would you like to have a diploma from a shuttered for profit school where business and organizations scoff at. I atteneded Eagle Gate College and have had NUMEROUS opportunities to speak with Admissions/Management that have worked or presently worked there.
This letter isn’t meant to be on a negative basis – it’s a POSITIVE and FACTUAL letter.

It’s sad to know that the target market of these Business Schools is the stay at home mom. I’d be happy to lead a riot aimed at tearing these schools down.
I don’t even like that THIS site REQUIRES me to leave a rating of at least one star.
The problem with this is, is I had great grades and a wonderful attendance record. I wanted my greivances resolve by:
1. Eagle Gate College creating a policy the betters the communication with-in the Eaglegate College Administration. This was a huge problem throughout my education at Eagle Gate.
2. Put me on the board the creates and implements the programs for the Network Administration Class at EagleGate College.
3. To allow me to recieve my diploma and a percentage of my tuition back.
Since out of the 11 core classes I had, we did not complete half of the class objectives for 7 of the classes.
I payed a lot of money to attend this school, and to be expelled on my last day is very discouraging.
I should have taken pre-law at SLCC and not wasted my time with such a horribly constructed educational system. The pre-law would definately help me in my future endeavors
When I decided to continue my Bachelors I briefly considered going back to Eagle Gate because they just started BA programs. The “head hunters” were insanely aggressive in trying to get me back and they continued to lie about how good their accredidation was (5 yrs later and nothing changed!) When I finally found a college that would work with my degree I found our that 95% of credits are meaningless to a Regional accred. campus. The academic advisors had to petition the main campus to allow even the very few credits that they ended up taking. The 2 yrs it should take for my BA will now take me 3 yrs because my classes at Eagle Gate are basically all considered electives and serve no purpose in an academic setting. Now that I am in a regionally accred. school I see how vast the difference is between the academic expectations. Sadly my 3.98 GPA was not worth the 2 yrs I endured to earn it. My current college is the real deal and I’m sad that I wasted time and money on Eagle Gate when I could be pursuing a Masters Degree instead of trying to scrape by with a Bachelors. Eagle Gate should be investigated for fraudulent practices-they are criminals and I wouldnt doubt for one minute if they were embezzling some of the money they are charging for their OUTRAGEOUS tuition that is completely worthless.
I could go on forever about a lot of things in here but most of them have already been said. So don’t waste your time or money cause it is not worth it to you to go here. Go to a real college where they care and will educate you.
One more thing to consider. If you are thinking about Eagle Gate for a medical career, be aware that they are ONLY accredited with ACICS, and NOT CAAHEP or ABHES. This will make a huge difference if you want to eventually become certified in your field. The only realistic (and affordable) option this leaves open is NCCT. 6 months after successfully completing NCCT requirements for phlebotomy certification, I’m still not certified as a phlebotomist because they changed their policies to require a diploma or degree. Since I don’t have that (yet) I’m still not technically a certified phlebotomist. With that in mind, I lood at certifying with AMT or AAME, but Eagle Gate’s lack of accreditation required for these organizations means that I will have to go with NCCT whether I want to or not, if I want to be certified.
Based on other reviews I see here, it looks like I will need to take all my classes over again if I want to go any further in my career.
If I’d known these things before I started at Eagle Gate, I would’ve chosen a college such as Evergreen, which IS accredited with the necessary agencies. I am disappointed, to say the least, and I will be copying this review to as many other college review sites as I can find.
