Eagle Gate College review: Liars and scam artists 10

it's sad that all of this happened to you, especially after attending classes and I'm sure paying for any tuition differences that your loans may have not paid, I worked at a Vocational School before and you are partly right. it is a 100% profit from all students. I think you're Idea of picketing outside the school is wonderful, not only will propect students see you but all of the other students currently attending will raise hell as well. if you do that post pictures, good luck

you can always call the accrediting company they used to file a complaint. thier accrediting agency is ACICS

http://www.acics.org/

now of course you are going to need more than yourself to be effictive, 1 complaint could be considered a disgrunteled student, 25+ complaints there is difinately is an issue. and if teachers where asking you for xanax you should report that to ACICS also.

hope this helps and dont forget the pictures!

I am having the same issue! And went to the same exact school. Same program. Just two years after you. It would really assist me if you would stand with me in this cause.

I'm attending Eagle Gate right now. Poor teaching methods. I had the opportunity to do an early internship with a big law firm. Left message after message, Was totally ignored by staff members. Got the internship, but when I went in, they told me I absolutely could not do it.It had to be on their terms. Why would I trust them. I had heard too many horror stories with bad internships that others had gone through. I'm going to take care of myself and make things work for me. That don't care about their customers or students. I'm still going to go work for free for this company because I want the experience. Eagle Gate also will pull this scam. You are suppose to take two classes per term. Watch out if they only give you one class per term and do it another time. It adds ten weeks to your program and they charge you for it. I caught them in this and confronted them in it and they totally tried to deny it and that made them mad. Don't ever allow them to only take one class per course. It's a totally scam. It's them trying to get more money out of you. You sign so many papers and they will make you pay for it.

I agree 100% with you. I see now how people can be and yes to be honest I did think that eagle gate college was going to be a great start to me finding myself in the graphic arts field. Not only now am I paying the lowest rate I can (50 Dollars) I am now struggling to make these ends meet. I have struggled and nearly spent all of my time looking for work just to make ends meet. I feel the same way. They treat you great in the beginning but after so long they start taking stuff out of your hands and putting it into there pocket. I can not even begin to express my frustration with the school. Something definitely needs to be done. I have tried talking to the dean as well Jana is her name and she called me stupid. On top of that she called my boyfriend who also went there a cry baby because he wanted the administration to treat him and I better. I wanted to transfer my first semester and I probably should've. I really cannot express how really upset with them that I am. I am getting to the end of my ropes with these people. TUITION IS WAY TO HIGH and they expect that 50 dollars a month or you are going to be dropped. I feel like I am lining these people's pockets with my money and that is ridiculous I should not have to pay a damn dime until 6 months after I graduate! This is ridiculous.! I am glad that you feel the same way we should try and see if there is a way we can file a lawsuit!

Im attending there now in the medical assistant program im supposed to be in my extern and i was placed and fired from 2 places. For not showing my skills with i was only showing what i was taught and trying to adjust and addapt to learning the way of my site. So now the school is telling me that i have to find my own extern site to finsh my hours within 2 weeks or i will be dropped and still have to pay $13, 000.. This school was bye far the worst choice they had all kinds of issues after a month of being there. I am looking into a way to sue to either get my debt dropped or something.

I have been a student of Eagle Gate College and I just ended up racking up a bill with the feeling that I wasn't learning anything. I had one instructor who had been a student. She was not technically an instructor. So at this point and time I just had to stop going because I just not getting the material and I felt that the instructors truly did not care. Either you got it or you didn't. Now they keep asking for their money outside of the student government loans I received.
Now I'm trying to find a job and because I just had one class to finish but apparently didn't make the cut I'm having a difficult time finding a decent job in anything.
My opinion is really do your homework regarding which school you attend.

How this "school" is still operating is astounding. I graduated 3 & 1/2 years ago with an associates degree, (which only put me $60, 000 in debt) and I can not use. "Career Counseling" is just someone pulling jobs off of Indeed.com (i.e. Petco is hiring). I would ask my program director about job opportunities and would just receive some vague answer stating "pretty much anything." I guess he was right in the sense that a part-time, low paying job, which has nothing to do with my degree is in fact "pretty much anything." So thanks, Eagle gate, it was always my dream to never retire and die trying to pay off an absurd amount of money for a useless degree. In closing, don't go to eagle gate. It is a scam. They have ruined me.

I completed my program (Passed National Certification and Graduated) then turned in my hours. Before about 2-4 weeks before completion I was informed that the man I was working for/doing my externship hours with was a Registered Sex Offender and the Doctor has an ongoing litigation for calling in opiate prescriptions for patients in exchange for sex. I asked my program director to change where I was doing my externship hours and she told me I should "stick it out, because I'm almost done" so I did. I turned in my hours and found out that someone told the (manager/sex offender) that I knew about his registration as a sex offender. He then tried getting the documents with my hours back from my Supervising MA. She called me panicking stating "I think he knows that you know and now he wants the final assessment to add some comments and change some things but I already faxed it and I told him I no longer have it" I was disturbed with what she was telling me so I tried contacting the MA Instructor she told me I have nothing to worry about. Her boss (MA program Director) then gave me a call stating there were some discrepancies with my externship hours. I went into the school and ended up filing an appeal. (In the appeal I begged both the MA instructor and program director not to send any other students to this "site") She told me I would hear back in 24 hours if they will be dropping me from the program or letting me redo my externship. I never received a formal call as promised by the program director. Instead The Financial Aid advisor I was dealing with sent me a text about costs of taking my Externship again. I set up the appointment to meet with her. Then I receive a call from a program director in Provo which I have never met nor know stating "(manager I was working for) called and let us know that you threatened an MA and the police are there getting statements and you should be getting a call from them soon. In the meantime I think it's best you don't even show up to the campus." I asked and begged him for more information as I have done no such thing now will I ever be capable of doing such thing. I asked for proof and asked where he was getting this information because it is a lie. It's been about 3 months and I never received a call from any officer. I then received a paper in the mail letting me know I was able to re-do my externship, a day later a received a letter letting me know I was withdrawn from the program. Stay away from Eagle Gate College.
