Review:

Let me clarify something FIRST, The NYIT-Ellis Academic Branch (or campus)and Ellis University are NOT the same school. The Corporation that administrated the NYIT-EC academic branch (Cardean Learning LLC) runs/owens Ellis University. The NYIT-Ellis Branch is run by and accredited under The New York Institute of Technology umbrella. Ellis College of NYIT students are in fact NYIT students.

Ok, now for the review. NYIT - Ellis is getting much better now that Cardean is no longer overseeing that program for NYIT. The NYIT-Ellis College students are starting to get regular NYIT student benefits as we should have from day one. The Cardean people were VERY BAD at administration, everything from financial aid and student ID cards, to basic information like when a class started was lost with them. They honestly sucked. 

However, the courses are top notch and are very interactive. This college requires lots of student interaction and writing projects. It's a breath of fresh air to talk to ones classmates.

Six weeks courses

***IMPORTANT NOTICE***

NYIT- ELLIS COLLEGE is NO LONGER accepting students into THEIR distance learning program, Ellis College will be fully integrated into NYIT over the next several months and will cease to exist.

For the remaining students the courses will be still taught by adjunct faculty of Cardean and NYIT. Which is good because they have some impressively credentialed Professors teaching these courses.

PLEASE!!!! DO NOT LET ELLIS UNIVERSITY ENROLLMENT ADVISERS TRY TO TRICK YOU INTO THINKING YOU ARE ENROLLING INTO THE NEW YORK INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY THEN ONLY TO FIND OUT LATER THAT YOUR AN Ellis University STUDENT.

THE CUT OF FOR NYIT-ELLIS' FINAL ENROLLMENTS WAS IN AUGUST 2008.
