I know exactly what you are talking about. I attended the scam of a school in 2001 for the surgical tech program. I was faced with the same circumstances. The school closed down in the process of me waiting for a extern assignment.I was never given an oppurtunity to finish, they were never there , didn't answer the phone, messages never returned. The place is crap, teachers are not professional and suck. Lab is filthy, I could go on forever.

They are WERE worse!I DID finish their Paralegal Certification=first in the class,BTW. The Education from the Lawyer/Instructors was outstanding. That was 5/97. Two months ago, after retiring from the Philadelphia Fire Dept.,I applied to College to not only upgrade to an Associate's Degree, but refresh my knowledge so I could start a 2nd career(I'm 47). When the University admissions dept. requested proof of Cert.and my transcript, NONE EXISTS because they had already lost their Education Accredidation because of FRAUDULENT USE OF GRANT AND STUDENT LOAN FUNDS before I even completed the program. They took $500+ from me each mo.&if I was so much as a day late, that LACKEY B---- of his had me in the office threatenig not to allow me in the classroom. Then, of couse, 6 mo. after the program ended, I had to pay back my student loan,because, they were only under investigation when I enrolled,so the loan holder was not notified of the fraud finding. They even had the nerve to hold a Graduation Ceremony! There is no Cert., transcript, NOTHING! I just look like a lying piece of crap who tried to pull one over and get college credit when I never even went to school before! A Total waste of $8000 & 11 mos. of my Life. I worked my a-- off working, going to school 4hrs/3nts/wk/+1SAT/mo. Not to mention all the written assignments&all that went into that! I AM SO ANGRY I COULD SPIT NAILS&I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I CAN DO ABOUT IT!!! At least I had a chance to vent here. Thanks Mary
