I went to the college in 1995/96. I was going for Patient care tech. While applying for financial aid they said i would get aid. Well they lied i signed forms for loans. They also never told me how much i would pay before i signed. Well, that is not it. In the end i paid $ 6,000 dollars out of my pocket. The school never taught real life problems and i was inexperienced. So, when i went to do my extern, they sent me to a chiropractic clinic that was going under. I never learned a thing there. Also the extern was only 6 months. All the job ads look for a year of more. Also when i went back for a job at the school they wanted me to work in scottsdale. I live in the west valley. Plus i told the lady in the office that i did not have a great vehcile. She did not care. So, 6 years ago i went back to see if could get at least a refresher course in drawing blood they refused. So, paid for nothing and now i work for fry's store. Thanks alot for nothing. I got more experience from there than the school.

When I signed up in 1998, I was told the big bennifit was that all our classes would be transferred to a college so that we could get a higher degree.That was their big sales pitch. A big lie. they claimed they were finalizing this as we signed our giant loan papers. I later took my transcripts to Estrella Community College and found out I have no credit for anything at AIBT to transfer to a college. I would have to start from ZERO.

I to have had the same experience. I attended in 1981-1982 and have repeatedly asked for my certificate and attempted to get my transcript. I have been unable to do so. All charges were paid and I'd very much like to get these. I too have done very well in the industry but would appreciate what I worked very hard for and paid dearly for.

I attended AIBT in 1993-1994, was a great experience, although now it isn't. I graduated from the CJ course and was on deans list most of time there. I have repetedly asked for my transcripts and my diploma and have yet to receive either one!!! It has been over ten years and I beleive I paid my dues and should get the tings I have paid for!! I done very well and had great instructor, yet, as I said, I have YET to receive ANYTHING as to my graduating. I was told I had, went through ceremony and have not received anything else! i need this info for the work place. Would appreciate very much to get what I worked hard for!
