We were working on our project (Our Green Hope) today where we used 3000 reusable bags to make the largest mosaic. The worker at the campus were friendly and supportive. After finishing the project, all the 3K bags were given for FREE at Kroger to encourage people to start using reusable bags instead of plastic grocery bags. Thanks for all the love and support from UC.Sam Alyami

This is a great school. It’s in a fairly big city, but the school is not that big. The business school has already provided so many opportunities for my freshman.Cassie Jones

Veteran Review: I attended COTC and graduated with an Associates in Nursing. I can say that it was very cumbersome to attend COTC as a veteran. I utilized my Tuition assistance and needed to "push them along" the entire way. Every semester I had to contact veterans affairs and tell them what I needed them to do to approve TA. My understanding is that they needed prompted in every way and every time I needed something completed to allow me access to my tuition assistance. This includes having to pay for a semester out of pocket do to their delay in assistance and lack of ability to complete my necessary needs on their own. From my understanding, they should understand this. I am currently attempting to apply for my bachelors 2 semesters later and I am unable to receive tuition assistance, because COTC has not submitted my graduated status to TA and I am unable to attend classes as a consequence to said incident. All said and done: If you are a veteran, be prepared to coax COTC along to get what you need.SSG Ben Moran RN

I had a very close immediate relative die during summer semester. When my immediate relative had a stroke, I did not notify my professors on the matter. Sorry, my thoughts are not on telling my online professors about my relative bleeding in the brain. My time was spent in the hospital, hospice, and at work. I missed a few assignments but notified my professors at my earliest convenience. The work was completed. Professor Sample for PSY-210-NA failed me on multiple assignments, accused me of plagiarizing from a blog, and is the reason I will not be graduating this semester from COTC. The plagiarizing accusation is because I had "similar sentences of a blog post." What a joke. Never take a class as Professor Sample as your professor. Do yourself a favor and just go to a different school. I will NOT be going back there. President Coe and other faculty members at COTC I contacted did not help in any matter. Of course, they took the side of Professor Sample.Adam A

I… HATE… COTC! Its the nightmare that will never end. My husband leaves for the military in one week… His recruiter needs his college transcript, so that he can get a higher ranking, more pay and one of the jobs he wants. All he needs is the transcript. We went in on the 22nd and paid extra to have the transcript sent. They told us they would send it out that day or the next. Well today we saw his recruiter and he STILL hasn't received the transcript. We went into COTC and had to talk to them AGAIN about this. Oh did I forget to mention that when my husband first started seeing his recruiter, he paid extra to have his transcript and then they handed it to my husband, therefore making it unacceptable to the Air Force. This is not even close to the first problem either of us has had with them. Oh, maybe you all should check out there 'graduation rate.' Less than 20 percent of people even graduate! That is horrible.Samantha B

Taking part in the cyber security program, I can say that I had a great experience. My advisor (Esther Salem) was experienced and knew exactly what she was doing. From all of my teachers I only have had two which I would not recommend (of which I will not name names). Only thing that I did not enjoy was the lack of clubs that existed for student recreation. During my first year there was an anime club, but it fell apart when the leader graduated. For my last year and a half a few friends and I started the unofficial DnD club which eventually became a official club my last semesterJoseph

They place is very clean lots of parking lots of areas of study for your degree you can also do high school studied there and when you graduate for high school you would also graduate with your two year degree to move on to a four college or be able to start a job in your area of studyIIYeet “Tammy” Lord

Some of the teachers are there for you, and actually teach you, and others are not. I'd say 50% which is not a good college reputation. As well as making you take classes you don't need for your credits towards your career of choice. Overall a bad rating.Rebecca Blind

Horrible school. I attended the school for about 2 years and have a better experience at the DMV. I was told in high school by a Cincinnati State that my credits would transfer from Cincinnati State to University of Cincinnati seamlessly – they did not. In fact when I went to UC, they stated they could accept me as a transfer student but none, zero, NADA – of my credits would transfer. I applied to Miami University (Ohio) and was able to have 3 classes transferred. Miami was also cheaper at the time than Cincinnati State. I had to start all over from scratch after 2 useless years at Cincinnati State. The staff at Cincinnati State, including the teachers, were low quality. Staff seemed to brush off any concerns you have. Asking for help? Only the minimum is provided to guide you in the direction you need. Teachers mostly seemed to be low quality and bottom of the barrel – I only had 2 teachers that were okay out of 2 years. A few teachers I was able to show issues with tests or exams – although they agreed that I was correct at the time, one refused to fix the exam grades for everyone because "That is what the test key answer is and she would have to go back and regrade all the tests"… Sorry? That is literately your job… The next teacher could not understand the wording of their own test question that they provided (online) and would not correct the answer for the students. I communicated this error via email and was pushed away. I pushed back stating the teacher was incorrect and provided the work as to why the answer was wrong, in a professional tone. The teacher responded unprofessionally by changing the color of the text in the email to red, downplaying my proof, not using punctuation, and using unprofessional language. I dropped the class as this is not a teacher in my eye; but someone who is there for a paycheck. Cincinnati State had a graduation rate of just over 12% when I attended. 12% of students graduate from this school…. For the 2019 year it is now 17.9%. The odds of you attending this school for 2-3 years and graduating are very low. You are better off attending a real college if you are serious about your future. The overall poor quality as well. I have never experienced so many arguments between teachers and students in a classroom before. After class is over, everyone leaves campus immediately unless they have another class within the next hour or so. The current ad campaign that is on TV does not portray the school correctly. The average age of students is middle age. There is very few labs due to limited budget. Little to no student engagement events. Printers were not free. Book store was a COMPLETE ripoff, some classes did not require the book due to costs. Teachers would not communicate to students about schedule changes in tests and exams effectively for online classes (I missed my final Physics exam due to this). Save 2 years of your life and go somewhere else. I am not the only one with a really bad experience. If you know someone that attended or attends Cincinnati State, talk to them. You will typically find they did not graduate or they think it is okay but plan to transfer to another school before they finish. Take my advice and stay away from Nati State. -Brad, MSHIBrad Mueller

My experience at Cincinnati State was something of a mixed bag. I had previously attended a 4-year university but was seeking a career change. Given the low cost of attendance that community colleges provide, I figured that Cincinnati State would be a great option. My first year of studies were great. I had some very kind professors who genuinely cared about the students and the material that they taught. Some faculty members could be a bit rude at times, but that is to be expected in higher education. After my first year, I truly felt like I was on the way to great success. My second year on the other hand turned out to be quite the opposite. During my first semester back from co-op, I received notification that I had been dropped from two classes without explanation. Upon reaching out to the registrar, I was told to contact my program chair/advisor. Upon reaching out to my advisor, I was not given any guidance. I felt like I was really left to my own devices to try to figure out how to schedule my classes. In addition, I found the teaching quality to be quite disappointing. In the one class that I was able to take that semester, my professor did not once hand out a syllabus or explain the grading rubric. I persistently asked him when grades would be given back, and he would give me a specific date. Only once did he ever give back grades on said date. The rest were given at the end of the semester, thus leaving all students in a state of anxiety over what our final grade would be. He stressed the importance of attendance and punctuality but was hardly ever on time for class. On some occasions, he even made me late to work because class would run over. For these reasons as well as the problems mentioned earlier about the administration, I decided not to return to Cincinnati State. In short, Cincinnati State is a good option for those seeking a low-cost education, and there are some great programs and professors here. However, the unorganized and highly bureaucratic administration combined with some exceptionally unprofessional professors keep the school from being as great as it could be. Please tread lightly if considering Cincinnati State now or in the future.Nick Workman

My review was removed probably by google because I mentioned that I don’t appreciate how their curriculum is trying to indoctrinate you. It’s other wise a good school. I got my degree in two years and had no problems. The instructors for my program were great. But it’s absurd in my opinion that a college feels the need to assert their opinions in to every core class. My English class was consistently wanting us to watch TED talks that talked about political standpoints. My sociology professor was the absolute worst. Even if you did an assignment and followed the rubric, but disagreed with her opinion, she would give you a lower score. Then try to justify it by using her own opinion as sources. She also said that anyone who believes in God is likely uneducated. Overall, my experience was good and I’m glad I got my degree here. But it’s just too liberal for my taste.Britt Jones

My son attended school here and it was a waste of time, experience and money. His teachers and principal does not communicate with the parents. They never gave us access to portal so we could know how he was doing. They claimed there was a incident but could not tell us what it was and suspended my spn for a week. Then told us they will not give him his credits earned and we neede to sign him back into his home school because they no longer wanted him at their shool. Now trying to charge me for tools he was not allowed to bring home because they cant find them. Dont send your child here.Denise Amick

Most of the teachers are rude and dont care about the attending student. All the staff thinks it's always the kids fault. I had an iep and was treated as if it was my fault for it. I would not reccomend this place unless if you're doing a creative program like photography or graphic design. If you're interested in Natural Resource Management especially with Mr Berringer, do NOT attend. He is extremely rude and doesnt help you to learn. I would give this school a 0 out of 5 if I could.Wildflower01

I hate this school. And my lab teacher. We receive too much homework and not enough time to do it. They don't respect us or our complaints. When I first came in October I was bullied and no one took care of it. They watched but never did anything. Mr. Sink is so rude too! He said talking to us is like talking to a wall. And Mrs Norvelle is horrible. So is Mr winner. Don't send your kids here! You'll regret it!!Glory bowers

The registered nursing program is a joke. Very disappointed I wasted my time and money going there. It’s pretty bad when the students know more than the “professors”. The people running the program were unprofessional and lazy to say the least. Paid for a certain amount of credit hours and they only had class half of the times we were scheduled. Lessons were taught per self by reading hundreds of pages per night because the professors were unsure what they were teaching. During class time professors had crying babies and barking dogs along with many more distractions. Spoke higher up and the dean was absolutely useless, wouldn’t take any responsibility for the low class education. The program does not equip students to become skilled nurses. If you have standards for your education I recommend going elsewhere.Abby Hileman

I would never go back to this school. I was very disappointed in the teachers in medical program but also try to reach out to the dean and she was not very understanding and rude. So many of the students in our class try to reach out to the teachers about not understanding the material they were teaching so we had to self teach ourselves .It seems like all the school wanted was money and not care at all about the students education. It's pretty bad when you have more than 12 plus students complaining and them not wanting to do anything. This place is mostly money hungry ,and it's very disappointing . They should be caring for all the students futures and do there best to guide them not break them down.S G

Worst College Ever. Tried taking summer classes here and it was unbelievable the amount of trouble I went through. No organization what so ever. My advisor scheduled me the wrong classes for the summer so I tried setting up an interview with her twice to have her change what classes I need to take and she was a no show both times. Then I finally got the right classes registered a week before the semester starts. Then they tell me that I was suppose to pay for the classes the week before that even though they didn’t have the right classes. For online classes they cost more than in person lecture classes at AU. Would not recommend this “place” to anyoneTyler Croskey

This college has frequent issues with their website when turning in or doing assignments. Return books to bookstore that you rent, and they "misplace" some, and charge YOU for it. No one fixes it…. Hard to get in touch with everyone. No way to work on a time frame with this college with issues with websites, and no way to get in contact with ANYONE you need to regarding logging in, assignments, registering, financial aid etc. etc. Last time i signed up everything took so long classes had already started for a whole week while i was still trying to get set up for each class. The FIRST day i was on the class page to try to catch up the teacher gave me a 0 on my first several assignments… EVEN THOUGH… I stayed up late the day I registered and got my books and tried to work toward catching up… I want to go back to college, but I don't think this is the one to be in…Amanda Arnett

The bookstore is horrible. The employees, not the student employees, were terribly rude. They did not give me all the textbooks I ordered online and it took 3 people and yelling for them to finally understand that they did not give me the access code. I even brought back the receipt and my actual order confirmation. They lied and argued with me about my order being fulfilled and held for me. I do not recommend getting textbooks from their bookstore.Allie Rosell

This collage will rip you off unless you are studying in the medical field then it might be ok…but almost ever single person i know who has gone here has gotten ripped off….do yourself a favor and just don't bother with this school..Aaron Lewis

#1 Rule And BIGGEST mistake as a black person was going to a school where BLACKS ain't graduated in 3+ years from the rn bridge program. That right there was a major RED flag for me. Second they let this girl re- test but wouldn't let me in extenuating circumstances from me going to jail from my home over a seat belt violation and insurance hours before a test. Out of 30 extra credit points they gave every students on the tests I was only good for 4 smh but everyone got the questions wrong. I won't be coming back there I don't like that type of stuff they work with everybody else but won't work with me. They alter tests for certain people to pass. I need a more diverse and fair school to go to because That school ain't it it's fixed for certain people to pass and graduate. Black African Americans Please steer Clear Away from this school!!. You can do better else where.ericaNAtUraL'CoCo Rivers

Tri-Rivers CC is a great school for any student to learn a trade, start a potential career and be competitive in the workforce. The knowledge, drive and experience I received help lay a solid foundation for my life and career. I highly recommend Tri-Rivers CC to anyone that is serious about becoming a true professional.Steven Blankley

I graduated from the high school 2 years ago and then college recently and I can honestly say Tri-Rivers helped me prepair for the challenges of college. TR has given me the skills, experience, and the contacts to help me pursue my career choice. Thanks you!!Jeffrey Young

As I approach the end of my studies I wanted to take the time to say that I absolutely loved Beckfield College. The flexibility of having fully remote courses made it very easy for me tobcomplete study with 2 babies. Instead of having to worry about sitters and sitting in class for hours at a time multiple times a week. When problems did arise I recieved prompt assistance and the staff was simply amazing. I absolutely loved the computer the school supplied and was so thrilled when i was informed it was covered under warrenty after my daughter broke it. With no questions asked Beckfield's staff made it very easy to ensure all necessary materials for sucessful studying were aquired. Not to mention the huge benefit of the 6 week courses and the quicker progression than other facilities. If your looking to go back to school I highly recommend Beckfield College and thier tuitions aren't through the rough. Financial aid is also amaxing in assisting you every step of the way through the fasfa and grant opportunities. Thanks for reading have a great day and choose beckfield!Nakeya Sowders

I transferred to Beckfield from another college in January of this year and it has been nothing but great! Every class is very focused and driven to the success of every student, the class sizes are much better for my learning style, and all the people from students to staff are just so caring in general. There are so many services offered for students, and they do anything they can to help you with your financial situation, academically, job search, and life school balance.Lindsay Steenken

I’ve been at Beckfield since January 2021 and I absolutely love this college. Since it’s a smaller college, I’m able to get one on one time with my instructors. The teachers also take time to come in and help me with topics I’m struggling in. All the staff are very sweet and helpful!Adelle N

My girlfriend took a class there right as the pandemic started and the people there was just so nice to her and even tho there was delays and such they treated her nicely and helped her get through. So she's happy and therefore I'm happy.Oscar Vaughn

Staff is always so helpful with whatever you need. I just registered for their RN program and have taken the LPN program 6 years ago. I would recommend to most people depending on what you're going for.Ashley Christner

Went for my STNA in January of 2014 the class was amazing! The teacher was very informative and made this easy to accomplish I'm definitely happy with my decision to go to ETI Technical College ❤️Lassie Welker

I went to OVCT for the MA program. My experience at OVCT was very positive. My number one concern when going to school is knowing that if anything happens they will have my back and during all the situations I went through when attending school they were there to help me out and accommodate my classes so it would be easier for me to finish them without having to drop out school. The staff and instructors are very nice and they help everyone in any way they can. They are kind and friendly and your success is there number one priority. I would drive 1 hr to school and 1 hr back home but it was worth it because I wouldn't find a school with such amazing people near my town. With a person like me with social anxiety and having English as a second language completing a program like Medical Assisting is really a success but I also know that I wouldn't be able to finish the program without the help I received from OVCT.Dejanira Cosme

The nursing program admission process is very easy and Donna will help you to understand the process and all of the requirements to get into the program. Becca will help you to get all of the financial aid requirements completed to get your education funded. All of the nursing instructors are great! They spend alot of time helping the students and assuring that we fully understand the many different topics covered throughout the program. The evening and weekends class/clinical schedule is prefect for people like me who work!Richard Bailey

Ohio Valley College of Technology is a great place to learn. Everyone of the Instructors are always willing to help. I have encountered a few instructors that have gone over an above to help myself as well as other fellow students to succeed. I appreciate all that they do and am very greatful for them. I have learned a great deal in my field of study. I would recommend coming to OVCT to anyone who is wanting a great education and wanting to be part of a wonderful family.Heather Mooney

Hello everyone, I have recently been excepted into the 175th class that begins April 2019. I wanted to give a little insight on my experience so far. I surfed the internet for reviews and comments about CSPN, to my surprise I didn't find many if any useful reviews, which I would say is a good thing. Most people only review there bad experiences, so I would like to give my honest review on my experience thus far. First I searched around for different LPN programs, there's only a handful out there. Then I reviewed CSPN website and gathered all the information that was provided and came up with a couple of questions to call and ask the school about. I spoke with Amy who is the admissions coordinator. She was so polite and helpful, and she remembered my name and addressed me as such the whole time I interacted with her. After making sure I met the requirements for enrollment which was outlined on there website in great detail, I located all the information that I would need to process my application. Then I reviewed the information on the entrance exam, I set aside roughly a month to study because I was a little hesitant on what would truly be on the exam. i did call and spoke with Amy again to ask a couple of questions about the entrance exam and she was very helpful with my questions and made sure I understood everything. I can say CSPN did provide a great deal of information to prepare for the exam. I scheduled my entrance exam from there website and paid online as well. This process was very easy. I received a text message reminding me of my exam as well. On exam day I was very excited and eager to take the exam. The exam was provided in paper format which I was so happy about. I'm not a computer exam type of person. To my shock and surprise the exam was exactly what CSPN said it would be, don't over think the information provided, don't distrust what was stated that would be on the exam. The exam is exactly the information stated by CSPN to study. After everyone was done completing the exam your scores was provided to you the same day, so no waiting at all. The next step is to attend an information session, which will go over all your financial aid information and give you time to ask any questions. After submitting my application and providing all the information requested, within a week or so I received my acceptance letter. I was over the moon. So far I have had a wonderful experience with CSPN admissions process and I look forward to every aspect and encounter being exactly the same. I will post another review after my new student orientation. I hope this review was helpful to anyone thinking of attending CSPN.FS Connell

One of the worst schools I ever went too. They were very downgrading. They would alway remind us to look around the class room because l lot of us weren't going to make it to the end of the program, every chance that they could get! Im talking about second week in to the program ! The Executive Director Michelle Altshuler was very prejudice towards us the African-American students. She would say things like " Were not on the streets anymore, we’re in a class room ". Let me remind you this is a private school and they hand pick each student individually. Again I’m talking about the second or third week into the program all the African-American students got escorted out of the school by the executive director Michelle Altshuler and a police officer but the caucasian student were just asked to leave for the day (nicely) they didn’t get escorted out. They were also allowed to stay in the class room to study while us the black students were scream at the get out the class room and find somewhere else to study. This happened before we got escorted out . All Because a caucasian students felt that she getting bullied, and don't get my wrong I’m a grown adult I don’t promote bulling. Ive witness what bullying can do to the person every day on social media, but in this scenario that was not the case. This student was an attention seeker and just wanted to be seen. Every day after that we the students face a new Challenge every day when we walked through those classroom doors. The way they talked to us was just crazy ! I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL TO ANYONE. They treated us horribly and we didn't even attend the program a whole month before all this started. I m convinced that they take down all the bad reviews because I have yet to see a bad review, but had people come up to me and say that is was a bad school after expressing the situation to them.keeping up with chanel

I am almost done with the first level, and i honestly have to say out of all the schools I’ve dealt with previously, this one is by far the best. If you are the type of person who genuinely is passionate to become a nurse, then you will absolutely benefit from this facility and the ladies who i have had the pleasure of calling my instructors thus far. There are some minor things that im sure many people would not like, but like i said if you are in this for the right reasons then you know it is done with good purpose and preparation in mind to send out nurses that will continue to do right by their reputation. They have a very big holistic/health based foundation to their classes and methods which i love, and communication is open, they go out of their way to make sure everyone succeeds and understands the material. If you come into this with the intention on putting studying on the back burner, or doing the bare minimum then expect to struggle, it is a 12 month course and alot of material. As long as you prioritize accordingly (especially with home life, children, etc) you will be successful. You have to invest in yourself and education the way you are into the school upon enrollment. This time will fly by, and as long as you treat your education as the ground works to your future, and the standards of the future care of your patients, then not only will you enjoy the school, you’ll enjoy learning which will make it even easier to comprehend and get through it. Best of luck to all my future nurses out there !Kiera Mastache

Medical Assisting Degree Program, Louisville, KY Its scary going back to school, especially college. I was worried when I started in 2017 that I had told all these people about my new goal in life and the first semester already feeling like giving up and letting everyone that cheered me on down. But I kept pushing and moving forward and it got easier and easier and ATA and the teachers really encourage you, the first semester was really hard for me but there was so many teachers that checked on me and helped me to see the light at the end of the tunnel. ATA IS THE PLACE TO BE. You will make the best decision of your life if you come to this school. Here I am graduating in May with my Associate Degree in Medical Assisting. And I have been on the Honor Roll each semester. You can do it ! Come to ATA.Joy Shacklett

Been in the Limited Medical Radiography Program with Medical Assisting, and it has been AMAZING! Love the small classes! & The Instructors are by far the most involved with every student and are dedicated to them as well. Very passionate in their teaching. All of the staff from ATA from Admissions and Financial Aid and Student Services are also very dedicated, helpful and GREAT! Last but not least The President! He is super uber Amazing! He visits the classes, greets every student, personally hands out the Honors or President Awards to the students who've earned them. Also looks for better ways to improve ATA. So, if you're looking for a College to Attend to, ATA College is where its at!! 😀dulce matlala

I have been attending ATA since may 2017 and I am proud to say that I will be finished December 15, 2017. The staff at ATA are truly amazing and a blessing. They push you and help you so much throughout your Journey. Attending ATA has been one of the best decisions that I have made. If your looking to further your education in the medical field ATA is a great place to start that Journey. The staff is always there to help they have one on on interaction with students if the they need to help and they are always there to help you throughout your journey through school and after you have graduated. I want to think all the staff at ATA for this amazing experience I am truly grateful.Courtney Brown

I can easily say that going to Butler Tech for my Junior and Senior year of High School was one of the best decisions I have ever made! I chose to study in the Information Technology program, and I walked out with so much more information and knowledge than I would have thought. My instructors, Mr. Newman and Mr. Chambers, were very uplifting, and always encouraged me to be the best I could possibly be. I cannot thank them enough for their motivation and encouragement during the two years I attended. Not only were my instructors awesome to be around, but my classmates were awesome as well. Every single one of my classmates in my Information Technology program shared the same interests as me, and it helped us to grow closer to each other like family. We always helped out one another, we always encouraged one another, and we always stuck together. In terms of the curriculum, speaking for the Information Technology program itself, it will be difficult at times. Mr. Newman, as well as Mr. Chambers, will treat you like you would be treated in the work force. I personally loved and admired this about them. The reality is, in the workforce, your managers wont be able to hold your hand 24/7. I loved the idea of being prepared early on to work my very hardest. This is just one of many things I have to thank Butler Tech for. Overall, I cannot recommend this school enough. With hands-on learning, engaging activities, and a room full of future family, Butler Tech will ensure you get the most out of your last two years of High School.Zach Rush

My daughter decided that she wanted to attend the Culinary Arts program for her Junior and Senior year of high school and she absolutely enjoys it! Chef Tyler Simpson is amazing and inspiring! My daughter looks forward to going to school every day unlike when she went to the Fairfield City Schools which is our home school. She takes part in all of the events she can no matter the day or time. Some of the staff lack personality and many of them tend to be the office and administrative staff. The campus is nice with a big parking lot and the facility is clean and well maintained! One issue that I found here is the fact there isn’t enforcement in the parking lot for the students! We PAY for a particular parking place as do many other students but the school doesn’t enforce this! This year is the worst yet. Various students have complained when the get to school only to find a car in their spot and when they go in and say something to the office staff they are told they will deal with it later..park somewhere else! REALLY? Another parking lot issues is there is no order when the school day is over. Non bus riding students can’t leave the parking lot until the buses do so that implies they are trapped in the lot until 2:25 pm or later. So if you don’t mind sometimes rude administrators and no parking lot enforcement you will love it!R Retherford

Attending Butler Techs Computer and Network Technolgy class today called Information Technology was the best choice I made when I was in High School. I am sure that my career path would not have been, as it is today without BT. The engagement and dedication my teachers had, in terms of teaching a child how the real world functions, is and was outstanding. I visit the campus and classes I took back in that time, every time when I get the chance. Also I talk to studens and new teachers while I am there. And every time, I am surprised and amazed again, that a teacher can bring up so much commitment for teaching children. And showing them how it is, to work in fields that are so competitive and diverse. It was an honor to be able to attend the DRL campus. And I am very proud to still serve my teachers I had by giving information and input out of the industry to keep the classes as close as possible to the real world experience. I highly recommend Butler Tech.Pascal Eggers

Don't attend this school for anything outside of pre-licensing real estate classes. They now have an accreditation for an associates degree but the program is severely lacking. Moreover, they have instructors that do not provide instruction. But they do have a couple who seem very knowledgeable in their field and are actual professors. You take an online class, which attendance is based on a weekly online discussion post, and your instructor gives you assignments. The thing is, the work given is graded by a person who can grade more heavily weighted on assignments based on their opinion. I've found that one of the instructors of the financial management courses grades very harshly (deductions are fine but hers are not consistent or fairly weighted) in an effort to make the class seem harder, yet she provides no real instruction. It took me more than three requests to get more info and explanation from this instructor about work that she assigned. She graded with a heavy hand and still only provided a YouTube video. Her initial response was to look at a two line blurb in the book. It's sad because this person has no consideration for the fact that she is not actually instructing anything. All the info and instruction comes from YouTube and the book, but she is the one who casts your grade. This is a very hard environment to learn in and to feel good about learning the info. If financial management or business finance is a part of your curriculum, consider choosing a different school. For reference, I have a B.S. in Chemistry so Im capable and have done "the work" for a degree prior to now. This instructor completely sucks the enjoyment out of learning the material because you only become focused on, "What's she gonna deduct for today?" Or, "How much is she gonna take off for our differences in opinion on an open ended question?" I feel disheartened. I'm over the red pen grading method. I'm over the lack of instruction and the poor curriculum. If you don't enjoy feeling depressed or defeated everytime you log on to your class, DO NOT attend Hondros or take these classes. It's worth the little bit of extra money to take it somewhere else.Shannon Crutchfield

I am taking the most affordable option for a mandatory Life and Health and Accident insurance pre-licensing. My gripe with the program is that it sold itself as self-paced, but it is anything but that. It is true that you can do it on your own time versus keeping to a schedule with a formal class. However, it limits you to a snail's pace with (slowly) timed continue buttons through the course. I did not appreciate this as I read at my own pace, and the course DOES NOT proceed at my pace. Granted, it is very explicative.. but for someone getting relicensed and mandated to take the course by PA I am disappointed I cannot speed through as I already know 80% of the information. Hondros, explain that you are metered to x amount of minutes per course. It is not truly self-paced.Joseph D

This review is only for accessing their online training through mobile phone. It is impossible to navigate, it is one of the buggiest, and user unfriendly platforms I have ever used. When it asks you to click “accept I am the person taking this course” it will not let you scroll down long enough to click the submit button. If you do make it to the mobile training site, the middle of every page is covered with “you are on page 1 of 10. Would you like to see the material? Too bad, but now you’re on page 2 of ten” Maybe android is better, but you should avoid if you’re using an apple phone.ryan hupp

Thank you AMI for accepting me and for being the foundation of my nursing career. It was definitely an exciting experience for me moving from California and making a new life here in Ohio. Not only have I had a great education from AMI, I have learned about a lot of different cultures and appreciate that AMI was very inclusive of different cultures when teaching us about patient care. Be prepared to work hard and never be afraid to ask questions. This is not the type of school where you can just miss assignments or show up late and it will all be okay. No, this is a nursing school that truly prepares individuals to enter into a career as nursing professionals. It was tough, but the instructors were always willing to help out students whenever they needed. Shout out to Dr. Elnaggar for being the best A&P instructor. To my other instructors and staff Mr. Ali, Dr. Gates, Dr. Tiya, Dr. Crayton, Professor Pauline, Professor Carol, Professor Jan, Mrs. Rosemary and Elfreda thank you all so much for your hard work and dedication to your students. AMI really helped build me into not just a nurse, but a GOOD nurse. Since graduating and passing my NCLEX on my first try I have so far received a handful of job offers from OhioHealth, Mount Carmel, and Nationwide Children's to name a few. I truly feel that every graduate that walks out of AMI will have a good nursing foundation along with strong morals and ethics. I am proud to be a part of the AMI LPN alumni and recommend this school for anyone interested in starting their nursing career. Nurses rock!Jeraldine Leovao

I’m so happy I chose Academia school of nursing. It’s was affordable, great instructors (shout out to Dr Elnaggar!). I definitely learned everything I needed to be successful in completing the program and passing the NCLEX in 75 questions my first time. I made lifelong friends on this journey (Hey cohort 10). Without a doubt I will return to complete the RN program . Thanks Academia!!!!vanessa washington

This is one of the fairest nursing schools in Columbus the instructors know what to do and they are so lovely, patience and excellent feedback to their students and they are delivering you all the skills and knowledge you need to pass the nclex and to achieve your dream to a incredible nurse if you want to become a nurse this is the best place to be I am so glad nd excited to be hereHabiba Mohamed

CCA is not only extremely knowledgeable in their field of expertise, but they also introduce a whole new approach to the teaching aspect of the course. Attending CCA was the first time I've had any schooling in almost 20 years. I was very intimidated in the beginning. But the relaxed atmosphere created a better learning environment for me. The information was complexed. But the instructor, Mrs. Tamika Jones's technique of teaching makes complicated things very simple & plain. This made the curriculum easier to understand & ingest at a fast pace. Mr. Dionta Jones is a man of wisdom & understanding. He dropped in on a few classes and taught us a couple of lessons that absolutely changed my mind & my life in that moment. I'm privileged to have met Mr. & Mrs. Jones. This experience was more than just school. It was life applied to it. I highly recommend Community Connections Academy.Terrance Wheeler

Really great teachers! I love the enthusiasm and the care they have for all the students. They supply everything and the resources. They will sit with you one on one if you need assistance with anything. They are great people to work with and can really get the job done. Their number one goal is to see you succeed and they will try their best to do that. No matter who you are or what's your background they can help you succed!Kiara

Great Learning Environment ! The Instructor is fantastic and very helpful . She makes sure you understand what is being taught before moving on to the next subject and answers questions very thourough . If you want or need a hands on experience , affordable program and want the best learning experience I recommend CCA !Andrea Holstein

I was not pleased with this school at all. Teachers constantly changed, and unqualified teachers were teaching classes (english teacher taught us psychology). There were mixed signals about dress codes and the dean of the school humiliated me in the main lobby over a minor dress code infraction while MANY other students were out of dress code. Our class began with 25 and only 3 original students from that class graduated. You are required to pass ATI proctored exams to continue in the course, but if you fail those exams they make you retake classes that are not associated with the exam you failed. I’m thankful i was able to get through the program, but I felt like a major disservice was done to myself and my classmates. There were a select few incredible teachers that really cared about the students, but they were bogged down by the horrendous upper management. I hope with the new DON change that these things change, but this was my experience.Sara Lawson

I completed the bridge program at OIAH. I earned my RN diploma, and I had a wonderful experience. My instructors went above and beyond for me, offered continual support, and gave me the tools and information to succeed. I passed the NCLEX on my first attempt without studying additional materials. Six students were in my class. Three graduated and passed boards. That is a fairly decent ratio for nursing school. Out of the three that didn’t pass, two quit for personal reasons. I have recommended this program to several friends including my own mother. She also graduated from the program! I have been offered positions at UC, Trihealth, Premier, and Dayton Childrens. I have moved on, and I am completing my BSN. Awesome program!Rebecca Daniels

I wouldn’t recommend this school, staff plays favoritism, if you don’t pass the standard ATI test then you fail the whole class. They only believe their staff you will not be prepared for success, this school prepares you for failure and I’m not joking. CTC, Fortis and Omcc are all better options! You will waste your time and will have to began at a better school!Jerry Stolkes

I was a little hesitant about going back to school to get my Master's degree after a long hiatus between my Bachelor's but I am extremely glad that I chose UC Online! Not only am I getting an MBA from a renowned school of business in Lindner, but the way UC Online managers their programs makes it painless. I had experts walk me through the application process and help me with everything through my enrollment and then I had a professional with me to answer questions and help me throughout the program! You never feel alone or by yourself.Brian Eck

Going to school online has never been so easy. I thought I'd be alone taking an online program, but my teachers, advisors, and fellow students have made me feel comfortable about going back to school. I can't wait to graduate with my degree from UC Online!Benjamin Smith

UC Online truly makes signing up for online classes a breeze. The recruiters are easy to talk to, and really help make sure you sign up for the program that is best for you and your professional/educational goals.Beau Wyrick

I am currently a student in the LPN to RN bridge program. I have never been to a school like this. I have had a horrible experience with this nursing school. I literally have a professor that ignores every email and never responds. She will literally walk past you in the hallways and avoid you as much as she can. In this class the instructor never grades anything on time. We have been sitting in class for 3 hours with no assignment or instruction. The front desk staff is not helpful at all. It’s pointless to ask anything b/c you won’t get an answer. And our schedules… We are supposed to have our schedules 30 days prior to the start of a term. The term starts in exactly 5 days. We do not have a clear clinical or lab schedule. My classmates and I complained to the Dean of nursing about our experience here. She made a very surprising comment during the conversation. “You don’t need to learn IV skills in school. You’ll learn them at your job.” At this point they should just close this place. If you are looking for quality education do not attend this school.Kishira Miller

This is my second quarter here at the ATA campus in Springdale and I have to say that coming here was one of the best decisions that I have made in furthering my career. The office staff is super friendly and will help in anyway possible. The deans and professors are very knowledgeable at what is taught as they are or were working out in the nursing field at a point. The student to instructor ratio is low so I get more time with the instructors if I need any more help. They also offer individual tutoring so you get the help when you need it. I love my ATA Campus and all that it offers. I would recommend anyone to attend!!!Douglas McLaughlin

ATA College – Cincinnati campus offers hands-on training for students interested in pursuing a career in massage therapy, medical assisting, medical coding (online), and nursing (LPN and RN). Excellent staff and instructors. You will be challenged to be the best you can be and career placement assistance is available. Tuition is very affordable and financial aid is available.Don Webb
