I attended a 6 months course at Pc ProSchools back in November 2006 and I did recieve microsoft certifications and two HDI certifications and you know what they have done nothing for me since I have last been at that so called school. I had received a loan from salli mae through Pc ProSchools and it was for $25, 000 for 6 months and now almost 4 yrs later I owe over $50, 000 with all the interest. I mean I didn't go to school to get farther in debt after finishing school. I should be at a job and making tons of money at least that is what I was told when I went their. Now I am still in a back breaking job which is why I went here so I could get out of this type of work and I am in struggling debt while going to a real school so I can receive a real degree in computers. So if you are thinking of going to Pc ProSchools you are better off going to a 2 yr tech school or 4 yr college you will pay about the same that Pc ProSchools ask for.

I was also dealt a bad hand with PC ProSchools...and I understood the risk when I signed up (while also thinking will it pay off-the 25k in private loan tuition due to the admission rep's optimistic stories that weren't true). PC ProSchools mentoring was medocre at best since I-and the whole class- felt that our TA was not a very good teacher...and it is due to this that I didn't even get my diploma from PC ProSchools.
I wrote to the school asking for more help and to unlock the rest of my practice exams and they have yet to respond or do anything about it-been over 4 months now. Obviously the school is a business, but they should at least have some decency to respond to people (even after paying the rediculous amount of tuition).
On another note, you will NEVER get back the amount of money you put into this school...I will give you two reasons...One=they try to place you at a help desk type position, which usually leads nowhere fast. Two=the people who took the loan option will end up paying $50k when all is said and done...which will never be made back because technology constantly changes and you will have to pay more money to keep current with certifications. Optional=this program offers NO DEGREE, and that is what employers today want-not certifications (that are mostly outdated based from industry standards).

I am all for filing a class action lawsuit...has anyone else already done so?

I was in your class Mike and you are a complete loser. You were absent almost every week and you flunked out by failing 12 of 16 exams. yeah you got 2 of the entry MS certs and how no one can figure out because you didn't know [censor] dude. And i was pissed because I paid more than you as you bragged how you got in for half of everyone else at 12k. grow the F ---up and quit bringing those of us down to your level as some of us are proud to be FULLY certified and EMPLOYED because of that school. Crap 4 f ing years later and now you're upset - Somethings never change loser
