Second I am in a Medical Assitant program, and I am in class with people who work in geriatrics and disabled people. If you are sick with an exscuse. You will llose the points for the day and if there are quizzes, you lose those points, and absolutley can not make them up or take them. Even on an open book quiz that you take online in class they will NOT let you take it out of class
Third the dates due on the syllabus are not always clear, one thing that is due may be posted in march in stead of feb, it may not even appear due on the portal on things due. Cant argue you just lose the points.
Fourth they make you buy a Ipad air that is useless for most assignments, but the books are online no text books, so you have to have Inet acess at home, and another computer to complete asignments. the Ipad air cost 600.00 but you can access the books on any pad laptop or computer. You have to buy it. I never use it it is uslesss to me. You need to us Microsoft word programs for classes and the Ipad is just something else to carry with your laptop. they have plenty of PCs availiable, but I just prefer to save things to my drive and not be bothered with thumb drives. It makes it easier to highlight and save notes to a word progam.
I am almost done but wish I never started. I lost points in all my classes because I am home sick today with a fever and my heart rate is through the roof, but hey no exscuses and no make up work. Even if you have Doctors note and over a 3.0 average. I just watch my B drop to a D in one class. I have to have a B in the class or Ihave to take it over.
Worst mistake of my life.
This school has been sued mutiple times by employees, students, and even the Attorney General! This statement alone should tell you about these schools and what they are.
The Chief Operating Officer got rid of all the program experts and kept all the marketing, admissions, and business people so all the programs are out of date, no current direction, no program growth, and no education standards. NO EDUCATION STANDARDS…..at a “school”????
They hire anyone as an instructor. Many times a former graduate from the previous year. No instructor is given any help or education in how to teach. They try but are not supported by the idiots running these schools.
WE CARE…….about profits, at the expense of students and eemployees. This should be their complete slogan.
If you do not want to be in debt the rest of your life for a worthless degree, DO NOT GO HERE!
Don’t listen to the psychological sales pitches! TELL YOUR FRIENDS-SAVE THEM!
My first mistake was to take an I.T course from this school with its outdated material. My second mistake was to think going for a bachelors in the I.T. field as a part time student would be smart. MSB should not even think of allowing a student in I.T to enroll into outdated materials with six years remaining of education. If they were honorable they would have recommended a different strategy plan from day one.
Never the less, I maintained a 3.94 GPA and completed approximately 70 credits in 3 years without guidance before the school contacted me by recommending I start taking 3 – 4 courses at a time to complete my degree in time and that I would need to start finding alternative ways to pay for school since my government funding was insufficient to complete my degree. This news was all brought to me when our economy was suffering the most. I had taken a $10,000.00 a year pay cut for some time and I had to sell my home as a short-sale. I knew I could not afford to keep things up so I re-routed to an associates degree so I would not leave school without a degree.
However, because of the way this school works they would not apply my courses to the lower level of the associates. I was 3 classes from my associate’s degree and I asked about equivalents that I know for fact were used with other students to obtain their degrees. They refused to substitute however for me. These last courses were then needed to be paid out of pocket which was not possible and my credit was hurting from the short-sale to get a loan at an acceptable rate so I dropped the classes intending to go back.
When I went back to the school again, the 3 courses turned into 5. I have completed 120 credits with this school and still do not have my bachelors or even my associate’s degree.
As much of a waste of money (and TIME spent away from my daughter) this is; I realized it is a bigger waste to continue going for my associate degree needing $8,000.00 or more with training on outdated materials to make $40,000 a year with almost $75,000.00 in debt. If I wanted to ever get my bachelors with this school, I would have to pay for 20 extra credits at the end of that term as well. To me; it makes more sense going back to a community college for a $16,000 degree start to finish with current materials and then maybe transferring to the school of my choice to complete the degree. I say this because transferring MSB credits is also a joke to many of the schools I talk to with the exception of Phoenix which I would worry would end up the same situation again.
This school is a joke and they know how to rip people off by taking more money then they owe. I just got expelled form Globe because my teacher lost my paper for my final and that is bullshit when I have people that seen me turn in the PAPER. They think that they are going to get away with ripping more people off well I am informing people that i ATTEND school with to leave as soon as they can before it is to late.
I hope that they know how to lie their way through court when I have the proof that I turned all of my work in on time..
One last thing i do not care if you find this offensive towards your school but you can f**k yourself… I am pissed off and I am not going to stop until I get the money back that I wasted on a school that expelled me.
tares this all you want because I do not care if you come after me because you will be the ones going down not me.
I recommend working at Burger king instead of going here…
