I think this school is a great choice. I was searching and then they called me and we set everything up within a week, I started and now I am two months away from graduating!! I a super excited.
I am not going to lie the classes can be challenging due to learning the material so quickly but if you put the time and effort into it, I wouldn't change it. I have had nothing but a great experience with the instructors and school staff. The student success coordinator calls you about every course to make sure everything is ok and you’re not having any problems, you get book reminders to order your books so you can have all your material for your next course, I have a career coordinator who has helped me do a resume, and calls weekly to see how job search is going, and if they have found jobs for you. They also do a mock interview so you can be prepared for your interview.
I have been told the tuition is a little high from other people in my area who have attended school in the same career, but am happy with my decision, I was able to attend do my school work online which is great so I didn’t have to take my son to daycare to attend school.
Thanks PCI, I recommend anyone who wants to attend the school to consider this one, have not had any problems and they are very understanding. They send you dean’s list certificates, and excellent awards for each course, I got an excellent award after almost all my courses, and made the dean’s list twice!!! Very exciting. Hope this helps :o)
I personally know other graduates of this school. They all highly recommended the school in question.They all received jobs shortly after graduation . I decided to peruse my career at this school.
I enrolled recently and it was very positive the staff was very helpful in getting my finances for the tuition Skip Lantry is a person that you will like very much he is on top of issues even when he was off schedule he would answer my questions at night by e-mail they had me registered in no time .
even though the tuition is a bit more I would rather pay it for a better outcome these folks have shown me their colors and they are all positive. i am looking forward to the classes ahead.really excited
The Medical Billing & Coding program was a great program overall. However, their tuition is a bit high in comparison to some local schools. However, due to my work schedule, I found taking online courses much easier. The instructors were always very helpful and would work with you when you had problems. The program director was usually there as well. The problems began after graduation...because I lived in a different state (as most of the online students did) their ability to help in career placement was minimal. I have had to do everything on my own and still have not found a job. They say they are going to help you and this is one of their biggest perks, but you never hear from them. And even when you ask for the help they tell you to keep looking and utilize craigslist (which isn't very safe to begin with) and other sites, so you are basically doing everything on your own. They have your money so you are of no use to them anymore. I HIGHLY recommend seeing if there are any local colleges that you could either take night classes at or online courses. Something like Kaplan or U of Phoenix that has a school near you, before using this school!!!!
