Review:

I have had nothing but nightmares in dealing with the financial aid department and reading the other reviews here gives me additional insight. It seems like they are trying to overcharge me but I am trying to verify that. I feel like I am dealing with some pretty stupid people. I'm looking at this report for the 10th time and now I might see the answer to the question but I would think someone that was intelligent would have been able to faster. Do not work with the financial aid department unless you absolutely must. It's better to just find a loan on your own. They are absolutely incompetent. I know more than they do. How sad is that. I have worked in finance and banking. I have received a lot of training. I understand accounting and documentation. The courses are good. But 6 weeks goes by awfully quick and so does the money. So far I haven't been able to break into accounting, which was my goal from the beginning. I'm thankful to have a job but I am worse off. I hope it pays off in the future. Do not rush into this program. Take your time. If you make a mistake then you will pay dearly for it. It might be better to go to a brick and mortar school even if it's more difficult and takes longer.
