Jeans for the rest of the year
Good news you can wear jeans to work the rest of the year! Bad news is we will layoff most of you before the end of the year, but hey wear your jeans till then.
Job posting
FA counselor at UCCS in Colorado Springs. Good place to work. Requirements: Bachelors degree and 1 year fa experience. Saw it on Indeed.
Ed West knows how to get the job done! Too bad CCi doesn't have people getting the job done. Keep smiling and dialing.
"The company reached an agreement with a majority of its lenders to cut borrowings by 73 percent to $400 million, according to a statement today. In return the lenders would get a preferred equity stake convertible to common shares and warrants for... — read more
Have you heard about the proposed class action lawsuit for failure to pay for prep time?
Have you heard about the proposed class action lawsuit for failure to pay for prep time? "Law Offices of Kevin T. Barnes"? Someone might want to suggest they get a protective order to prevent "any" siphoning off of company resources.
How much are the student refunds for $160,000 students?
Did I read the post correctly that states if CCI fails to pay it, it comes directly out of the following CCI FA moneys? Either way, what is the deadline for the refund? If CCI can't make payroll now, that refund is going to put us in the shitter for... — read more
I wish that angry DOA would come back.
You may remember her, she spouted out about how she knew how to comply without actually reading the regulations. I wonder how her campus is doing today?
What has CCi burned through?
$200M in cash; $100M in credit; delayed payments to vendors (likely to the maximum); sold $75M in notes for $19M; CCi has also gone through thousands of employees, and thousands of students. What's left to burn? A building in Florida? Some Wyotech... — read more
"Full refund" as defined in the operating agreement
"Full Refund of the total direct costs of attendance incurred by such student, and, in that case, Corinthian shall (i) return to the Department any Federal Pell and other Federal grants and Federal student loan funds disbursed to such student, (ii)... — read more
For those of you old enough to remember Don Meredith and Monday Night Football....
Turn out the lights, the party's over.
There is life after for-profit education......
If your role at CCI is something other than instructor, you might think about what your skillset would allow you to do outside of education. Admissions, Account Reps and on-line Employer Developers are good candidates for sales. Career coaches can... — read more
Another $1.3M in interest is due on Monday, and payroll is on Friday. Will CCi make it through next week?
And when will CCi be processing the up to 160 full refunds (as defined in the operating agreement) for the Cross Lanes and Eagan students?
Imagine having to pay for your entire life in cash. That's what CCI has been doing for months.
There IS NO CREDIT! THE ONLY MONEY COMING IN IS FROM STUDENT TUITION. And as we all know, student numbers have dropped considerably. And then there's the shitty retention rate, which employees know to be true, due to 'sub prime students.' Plus, three... — read more
I started looking for a job in June and haven't heard back from most places yet. If you haven't started looking, yesterday would be a great time
It could be crisis time now for this company.
Everest campus doors were locked today at a campus in Tex because COCO can't pay the rent.
Copied this from an earlier post today. Any confirmation/details?
Article - CCI Still Hurting for Cash, need to sell loans to maintain payroll
http://www.ibtimes.com/corinthian-colleges-hurting-cash-sells-student-loans-1669950
Wall Street Journal - must sell loans to pay payroll and operate
If CCI is blocked to sell loans, we cannot pay operate and maintain payroll. But to keep operating during the next six months so that it can execute these sales, Corinthian has said it would probably need more liquidity than it was provided by the... — read more
For-Profit College Analyst Says 'Subprime' Students Are To Blame

Remember when this board was all about Remington?
In the event of a sale, which is not looking likely, your services will still not be wanted and you will be fired. Given CCIs legal hassles and criminal probes, along with ED problems, no reputable organization will be caught dead being seriously... — read more
Bottom line is the longer it takes for COCO and ECMC to seal the deal...
We will all face more layoffs and campus closures. The longer this sale drags on, look for an announcement that ECMC pulled out from their offer or reduced the number of campuses they were interested in purchasing. COCO is broke and with the loss of... — read more

ECP All-Staff Meeting
ECP has an all-staff meeting tomorrow at noon. "State of the College", FY15 Budget and "One College Enrollment Model" on the agenda. Wonder if any real info will be released.
What does it typically cost to attend Everest College-Portland? Increased 90.5%? WOW!
"The average net price for undergraduate students is $21,068 per year. Net price is what undergraduate students pay after grants and scholarships (financial aid you don’t have to pay back) are subtracted from the institution’s cost of attendance. The... — read more
ECMC is ready to finance their own students in their own schools.
The business transactions needs to move quickly before they change their minds.
Why is there no plan for a turnaround?
Maybe because many of the loyal employees are long gone? Maybe because Santa Ana really does lack administrative capacity? Would you trust your Federal financial aid to Socle?
One Thing That Doesn't Exist: A Turnaround Plan
But everything's great. Losing hundreds of millions is no big deal when you have no credit and rely solely on student retention. And enrollment. Well, those 3 states not enrolling, no big deal. Losing VA money is CA. No big deal. Criminal... — read more
Close or Sell. If they sell, that's it. Either scenario - CCI ceases to exist.

Tampa trades program in shambles

Anyone find out who toured Everest Colorado campuses today?
Has anyone confirmed if ECMC toured Everest Colorado campuses today?
Why will we never see any audited financial statements?
It's quite simple: The auditor is required to check to make sure that there is a good probability that CCi will be a "going concern" for the next 12 months (i.e. up to June 30, 2015). Otherwise the auditor must reveal his findings. Such findings... — read more
