When first enrolling at Everest College I was assured that all of the credits were transferrable to larger institution after the course completion. Because I have a family and prior obligations I had inquired about what the total loan would be for the degree I was interested in, and was given an estimate of what my per month payment would be after graduation to see that it would fit into my budget.
I signed up and was soon on my way to the opportunity to a bigger, brighter future. However after graduation, the payment that I had been assured of was almost double. I am not trying to get out of paying what I owe, but I was straight out lied to about the per month “investment” I was getting into. Another problem is that I am interested in advancing my education further at another college and now am being told that none of the credits will transfer. Are you kidding me? What a fraud this place is. I came looking to invest in my future so that I could do better for both myself and my family. Now I am financially strapped beyond my means to a degree that isn’t worth any more than the paper it was printed on. I am proud of my accomplishments, but not this.
Everest College now calls me 2-3 times a month. They want me to take their surveys and have my employer fill out forms regarding my current employment position and responsibilities. They have tried taking credit for helping me advance to my current position, when in all actuality they had absolutely nothing to do with it.
So to sum it up:
-Everest College uses car selling tactics to persuade eager individuals who are willing to invest in their future.
-Your investment figures for your education are minimalized and lied about just to get you to buy into their sales pitch
-The transferability of credits to other institutions is all lied about. The credits are NOT transferrable to ANY reputable school.
-They try to take credit for getting you a job that you already had in the first place. That’s right, they want to falsely pump up their placement ratings so that they can lure in the next one.
