He is really blasting for profit schools. Today I heard that he wants all of the for profit schools to give the students information as to where there money is going.

Agree, but we have to wait! Obama 4 more years!

Good site, good questions, instead of complaining lets do something. http://20kintheholeschool.blogspot.com/

thanks for the info.

Go to FAFSA online and you will see only a drug conviction, which is less than 2 year old, will prevent eligibility for a loan. No mention of any other convictions preventing eligibility. Nor is there mention of eligibility to repay a loan. So a... — read more 

Yea, pretty interesting. We have ATB students who are failing, they know it, but the school manipulates their grades so they pass, the student knows this, and cop an attitude towards the instructor. They don't turn in homework, show up for class etc... — read more 

Man! lol! What a School! Maybe that's why everytime I ride by a Everest campus it looks empty! No cars in the parking lots. No students walking around!

Thanks, what’s your source? I have had students with active warrants, previous felony convictions for CSC, Check fraud, credit card fraud, etc. Great to know we are placing a fine bunch of individuals out there in what is a trusted profession. They... — read more 

Drug felony conviction may make an individual ineligible for only 2 years unless the conviction occured while receiving federal loans. That is how a student with a felony conviction may receive a loan.

Contacted FAF, any felony. Another one bites the dust at the GR campus today. A fantastic instructor was terminated, what a bunch of shi*

I think only drug felonys ...could be wrong!

Can someone tell me how students with felony convictions can get financial aid at CCI, (pell grants, etc.) Speaking with FAFSA, they say they can't. Smells like some fraud to me.

Good point on the grade issues. There is alot more going on with those grades then one realizes, which amounts to grade fraud. I have had students by my grade book, flunk, and then a miracle happens and they come out with a C. There is more I could... — read more 

CCI here is four words you preach but maybe you should learn because you have the business sense of a 4th grader. " Business Acumen" and "Common Sense". Yeah those four words you preach, learn to practice it first and maybe we will actually listen or... — read more 

That doesn't include their Bonuses and Stock options, and other secret perks. They introduce the escore piece with magicly weighted and curved knowledge tests and customer satisfaction scores. With no transparency on the curve or weighting. How would... — read more 

Yup! Those are true numbers. But we make big money because we spend big money! Wait tell you see what a Regional Director or Regional VP make for doing nothing! Some where between 100k-250k...Yup!

You hear that Mike. You need to treat Online better!

Online is the only part of the company that is actually doing well, and they are squeezing every ounce of blood out of us they can, more than usual. I don't know how many more times we can save the company in terms of enrollments. It gets real old... — read more 

Q3 numbers are not good! We need a great Q4 to bail us out! Looks like it's time for Online to shine!They have been saving this company for 5 years! I am not sure they can pull it out again. Good Luck MJ!

Slowly but surely the boys club is falling...too bad they ruined so many lives on their way down. "What goes around comes around" and it's great to see it happen to those of us that were screwed over.

I don't see how the numbers will be any better, but you never know. I just think that students are realizing they can get more for their money at a real college. Even the LPN program here cost 32k; really...You can get your RN for about 3-5k at any... — read more 

True! Q3 numbers come out in May and than we will know what is in store. I hope good news!

Well someone has not been paying attention. There have been major layoffs throughout this company, stock prices are down, enrollment is down significantly, and you don’t think anything is going on… One has to wonder how much longer some of the... — read more 

I agree , people losing jobs is not funny at all. But what is entertaining is reading posts about people predicting "big layoffs ahead" or "this person is next to get fired" that in general is amusing, because as of yet nothing huge has come of all... — read more 

Do you know whats funny? Nothing! People losing Jobs and getting fired for no reason is not funny? Laugh now and cry latter! Layoffs coming soon!

That's pretty hilarious

To the last poster, really? Your point is what?

What's really scary is that 90% of the comments here are barely literate. No wonder the people who wrote them were fired or can't get good jobs.

That is the truth.....however, they only get rid of the people who don't go along with all of the illegal crap that goes on. Again, you start asking questions, your done. There was an instructor when asked if he had signed one of their documents he... — read more 

Karma is a B!&#$! It doesn't matter what you got fired for. They fire you for anything but the right thing!

How many graduates have employment? Did CCI get you that first interview? How many former employees out there got fired for high attrition rates? What were the reason/s given for your termination?

CCI Stock closed @ 3.66, here comes that down payment on that new cadillac.....

I believe alot of the students who attend have no clue what they are getting into, perhaps it is because they get so much sunshine blown up their rectum and are rushed into their program with all of the hype, glitter and glory. Most that enter are... — read more 

The education is ok , however the company (CCI) is not ethical in hiring and firing employees. The reason why the company is losing money is not because of the quality of the education. The reason stocks have falling and enrollments are down. Bad... — read more 

Most of the instructors at Everest do offer a quality education. It is up to the student to benifit by doing their part.

Well said student. I used to work at Everest and I always told the student to check and make sure the credits transfer to another school. Another thing they need to understand is that Everest is not a CC. You go there to finsh there and it will cost... — read more 

Prior to entering any CCI you need to call a few actual colleges or universities to see if any credits transfer. Some of us students did just that, and found out "no credits will transfer to another college or university; we were so out of CCI. Look... — read more 

I know that some Law enforcement Agency such as Sheriff departments perfer Regional accreditation over National. Everest is National!

Usually I am supportive of all that come here, but something doesn't compute. Please name the PD that doesn't accept an Everest degree. Grades may be a factor but. degree?? If what you say is policy then let the public know. What PD?
