GBAdvisors can take forever to get back… Advisors can take forever to get back to you or just not respond. Instructors (minus 1 or 2) give generic feedback on assignments and don't really give any useful insight. I honestly wish I would of chose a different school but since I've done a year's worth I am sticking to it until I'm finished. Also college staff that help you sign up for a course need to not be misleading. I ended in a degree program that was similar to what I wanted to go for but not what I actually wanted. Which unfortunately I've already invested a year of my time to this.

GBGood education..... but bad financial aid officers Good education but you could educate your financial aid staff more. Most didn’t know how to handle a single parent household on FAFSA, or know what the actual age for declaring financial independence was. Or, how to put existing private loans into deferment. So my best advice would be to train your financial aid staff. 24 is age of independence and if it’s a single parent household, you only need ONE parent’s income. End of story. Caused me SO many headaches because they didn’t know how to do their jobs.

GBI looked at a few schools before… I looked at a few schools before choosing College America. Out of all of them I only found one school that seemed more interested in my future than their profits and that's the school I went with. There were times towards the end that I truly considered dropping out. With my life spinning out of my control school took a huge back burner. If not for the staff I wonuld not have graduated. The Dean Linda Berzi, my teachers Sharon Jeter Ben Kuhn and Aaron all helped me and gave me unconditional and continuous support and encouragement. With all that I had to deal with I fell behind on my in school loans and Mrs Carol relentlessly worked with me and helped me push forward without making me feel ashamed or embarrassed. Even after the corporate location made a slew of changes the Phoenix campus we're there for us to work through the transition. I love my school and I would definitely recommend that anyone who wants to better their lives at a school that actually cares then College America is THAT school. I am so glad I decided to check them out.

GBTeachers are as prepared as they can be… Teachers are as prepared as they can be with the technology given, however the tech is faulty or they aren't showed how to use it. They are only national accredited instead of regionally, so most credits don't transfer. The classes are disorganized and seemingly out of order.

GBThe teacher's are amazing they take… The teacher's are amazing they take time to teach you and help you understand. The one thing that helps the course go by faster is that they are actually working in that field of your study so not only is they teaching us but they actually enjoy their job.
