"This school is a complete JOKE! Not only is it overpriced but the staff sucks! Some of my instructors were great and wanted to teach. Most however were too busy either trying to be friends with the students or flirting with the few male students we had! How professional!!! When I had my first meeting with Ms. Wright in admissions she basically told me bc I had no previous medical experience I wouldn't be able to handle the LPN courses and would be setting myself up for failure.....funny bc when the LPN instructor saw my grades she said I should have went for LPN. The career coach called me and bothered me many times with bs. I was told on more than one occasion someone would be contacting me for a job and they never did! And most of all is the issue with billing. After my father who was paying what the grants didn't cover received a fully paid slip...lincoln tech has managed to mess my credit up and tried saying I owe $1, 100! All of a sudden today they found the fully paid receipt and have to investigate it. Please do yourself a favor and don't go to Lincoln Tech....you will definitely will regret it!"

"Everyone there is very helpful and the support is amazing. If I had any questions they did not hesitate to answer them they are remarkable. The instructors take their time in teaching you and if you are having trouble they will give you their email address or their schedule when it is convenient on helping you. The director was a big hoot me and my classmates always wanted to challenge her in saying "GOOD MORNING" she was the one she would go to every classroom and say it but we wanted to be the first on saying it first. The dean she is amazing she laughs with us and she gets involved with the schools funding. Everyone at this school are the most wonderful people you would ever meet. I am on externship and I am adapting just perfect on the skills that were passed on to me to be carried out Thank You Lincoln Tech of Brockton you have changed my life in so many ways"

"Lincoln Technical Institute in Northeast Philadelphia on Horning Rd is one of the worst schools you could ever attend. The Director is very arrogant & ignorant & so are most of the staff & teachers. The only thing there worried about is making money off of you. They care nothing about your success there just looking for a check at the end of the day. 95% of the so called teachers there does not have a degree in teaching there Medical Assistances there selves & is only teaching you what they learned years ago when they attended Lincoln Tech themselves. I would never recommend anyone to go there. It's def a waste of time & money."

"The biggest regret of my life has been going to Lincoln Tech. I went for the MA program. Awesome 4.0 GPA, only missed 2 days out of the entire year. My parents are in a $13 thousand debt for a school that won't even get me a job. The job itself sucks anyway. Be a doctor, nurse, or some tech if you REALLY want to help people. My externship was horrendous. I was at a chiropractor, acupuncturist, and physical therapist. They were all very nice. The horrendous part: all I did was clean, stuff envelopes, and file! I washed dishes, did laundry, took the garbage out, cleaned the entire fucking building..... This isn't the shit I went to school for. I was basically just a cleaning lady. I barely got to do actual desk work (it was administrative). I was lied to. I was told I'd assist with patient setup. Guess what I did? None of that. 6 weeks of this bullshit. Cleaning, stuffing envelopes, nothing productive. No offices are hiring. One lady gave me a dirty glare when I said I was from Lincoln. Bitch gave me my resume back. I acted and dressed professionally to all the offices I went to. All the job listings I get are way too far; they know I don't drive. Also must be bilingual and certified in all this stupid shit. I barely got any help with my clinical stuff. So I'm not clinically certified. Limited in jobs. It's a shitty job anyway. It's basically just watching the doctor do everything. Just become a doctor, or even a nurse. At least you're involved in people's health. Or even a physician assistant. Lincoln said they sent my resume to an office. I followed up. They said they did not receive a resume. It was a recycling office! I was told by the career services lady that there's a front desk position in a nearby town. Great! She told me to wait for a call. What? Don't I call to follow up? She did not give me the name or number for this place. This was a week ago. I  hate this place. Not recommending to anyone. A waste of $13 thousand fucking dollars. I still have my Lincoln scrubs. I want to burn them so bad. When I hear the word Lincoln Tech I wanna rip my ears off. It's a scam. It'll leave you jobless and in debt. It's a pointless job anyway. Going back to emergency medicine which is USEFUL AND ACTUALLY BENEFITS SOCIETY."
