UEI College Reviews

"I have had success with this school,it does need some work in areas however ,they did their job I graduated and they helped me get a job as a Medical Assistant, I was hired with a doctor a day before graduation, as of now in 2016 I'm running a doctors office as a Patient Care Coordinator, its what you make of it,you do what you suppose to as a student you will succeed. I've seen alot of students play around.They did not do what they were suppose to do. The school could be better."

"Im back in school and was really excited to hear that my other class mates were able to use their credits from another school....but because i decided to go to UEI...my credits/units didn't matter. Its hard to find a REAL college or REAL university that will take these credit"

"Went to UEI Huntington Park school for nine months. Nine months was not enough. A private school not the best choice. Instead of going to these school so called UEI org to apply yourself. Wrong choice of attending these private college with the accreditation approved it was a bad choice. The school needs more restrictions. Not get you to sign papers without even going over them. Its shame for UEI org who's managing these school. My experience going to a school where I was taken serious but after completing the course and got a certification its sad of getting told by employers with a look of saying UEI college bad choice. The choice of a school like UEI should be close and have restrictions of how it is being manage. The reviews of previous UEI students its a sign that some are not happy with the experience. Recommending these school UEI Huntington Park for anyone don't take the risk. Just attend community college and it will look good in your resume. Plus no loans to worried about when attending community college. Even transfer to a University and be successful.Read Less"

"Do Not Go To UEI. I went to this school in San Marcos. I graduated with a 3.74 GPA, all that hard work for nothing... Because I'm not making enough in the field I studied for, Dental Assisting, I tried going into the Army but I can't because I need an Official Transcript & they won't give it to me unless I pay off all of my student loan. STUPID! I want to defend my country & this school won't give me the opportunity"

"Don't waist your money here . this school is extremely expensive . I graduated and found my own job in my field they don't help and once I got in my field realized this school didn't prepare us for half of what we needed to know . They tell you your going to come out of school make a ton of money .You don't and these credits are not transferrable."

"I would not recommend this college to anyone. Falls goals. They don't help you find a career and when wanting to know about your certificate No one returns your calls. Yet they are strict I'm their payments. Advice go to a college where you can get your associates."

"I see a lot of people putting this school on blast for something that they perceived to be wrong. All I know is that this school helped me and husband in ways I didn't know it could. I see all my classmates doing dumb things everyday that just make me wonder about them. They talk when the instructor is teaching, they're rude to staff, and they constantly ask irrelevant or unnecessary questions about the material we just covered. Why pay $20k+ for an education that you don't want to work for? If you go to UEI, you need to come ready and willing. You chose to be here so suck it up buttercup and put on your big girl panties because you're in for a ride.Read Less"

"School sucks, your paying 20k for a certificate. I started in medical office specialist and books weren't available until the next week. I got honor roll all mods and perfect attendance. they put too many rules and are way too strict. They tell u to settle down on makeup and no acrylic nails. Girls are way too catty and rude. too much drama in this school."

"UEI Fresno was a joke. If you feel uneasy about applying then don't do it. This school is in an abandoned mall for a reason. The staff is very rude but they do try and help as much as they can. Unfortunately that is just because they don't want to lose their accreditation. If you have a personal problem they don't care, I actually had one staff member laugh at me for crying. Honestly, they harass me everyday since I dropped out because of the unprofessionalism of the staff. This school says so much about how they are professional but I have yet to meet anyone who is! I kept a 4.0 in this school and I still wasn't respected. Career services is horrible. Financial aid is AWFUL.Read Less"

"This school is a joke they take your money and your eventually stuck i dont recomend it to nobody i only been here for 2 mods and i have gotten more then 5 teachers that just stay for a week or two and you still get passed without learning anything i wish i never came here in the forst place this school isn't serious"

"Well first of all UEI is a good college to me located in Gardena I recommend you to take a chance ignore other people negative opinion to me is bs, yeah BS Because I gain some knowledge, im learning well my instructor is not lazy boring or stupid he doesnt be on his phone all day long he be next to us helping us out in the shop and that Mr. Perez he's intelligent and honest. He will teach you what you really going to do in the real world, and since I started this school i dont regret a single thing made some new friends learn as much as i could oh yeah and you will get a job sinnclair is the man I dont really know him like that but he will and that a promise even if you grad from UEI you could still ask him and he will be gladly to help you out to find you a job. But yeah the school is not perfect but is okay. Ps im not really good in my grammar lolRead Less"

"Worst experience of my life at the fresno campus. It is ghetto,and the teachers are not professional. I was lied to about my payments when they knew I had no source of income. I still have not found a job and they suck at helping you. The extern site they sent me to was terrible and that place got shut down a week after I was done. And still no help with finding a job and they changed my career service person without even telling me so I've been contacting the wrong number the whole time. This place needs to get shut down. I want my money back and I will gladly be apart of anything having to do with suing them.Read Less"

"I really enjoyed the school but if you don't have a job already you be out of luck after you graduate. It took me 3 months on my own no help from them to get me 3 part time jobs not in the field I got my diploma in. I did learn a lot but the school only helped me get my internship and the person I did my internship with said I wasn't a good fit for the company. Go and get your AA degree don't waste your time or money here."

"This school is one big joke in all honesty I got stuck at this school Kaplan is right down the street it is the same price but no money hungry people work there UEI is all about profit the teachers look like drugies my teacher singled out some of her students go to a community college or somewhere else...FYI I passed all my modules and got perfect attenance and honor roll with out being there 25% of the time my GPA was less than a 3.0 they award to make you happy don't believe any one there that says bad reviews are from the students who failed and got kicked out thats there excuse...my teacher stays on her phone texting away as we wait for her to finish her important msg to her daughter reassuring her that the pb is in the fridge Lujano is a joke as well as the school... I would not recommend this is place to my worst enemy... Please do not make the same mistake that I did DO NOT GO TO UEI unless you want huge amount of debt and time wastedRead Less"

"I got sucked in with their "Promises" and all I got was knowledge in a field that I can't even get my foot in the door not to mention they never gave me my certificate of completion or as they call it "Diploma". They don't help you with job searching and or placement once you complete the courses. They tell you what you want to hear to pull you into their little "Trap" and you end up getting screwed over with student loan debts and hassles. I wouldn't recommend this school to anybody since they don't help you like they say they will.Read Less"

"Got in the school easy got out still searching for a job, all they say is all BS no job 3 months already , do not be foul for what they say is all getting you in then you have a problem , go to American career college that college fund a job for you quickly ."

"Before enrolling at UEI, I did some research and I was very hesitant to look further into it since I seen more bad reviews than good... but I took a chance & it was the best decision I have ever made! I've learned so much & the time flew by very quickly. Don't allow other peoples bad experiences discourage you from making your own choices. You just never know how much it could change your life by taking that chance."

"Worthless organization for profit it should be shutdown. The founders of UEI colleges have no sympathy for those enrolling in these schools with no future and with a loan to pay. Schools like these should be ignore especially for all ages it can affect lots of people after getting a worthless diploma . There should be something done about it especially now. To eliminate schools with no desire to help us . They are there for our money . We need to interfere to get rid of schools like these one. Worst experience they get you to sign papers and then after your doom so be aware the admission they work there to try to convince you its a school to attend. Its a joke because no one will notice your certificate or diploma. Go to community college. Go to a school where there's funds to take advantage for your education its our future. Not worth to attend schools with their desire to take your money. PLUS LOANS AWAITING FOR YOU TO PAY. Attended school there for 10-months not the best choice.Read Less"

"This school lurs in people and promises a stable great, paying job that will better you for the future but instead all of it was a lie and I owe thousands with nothing to show for it. When I signed up tey told me that I would be making 12$ an hour to start and that I would be RDA certified to later find out that I could be making minimum wage and that I was not RDA certified only trained and I would have to pay over 200$ of my own money to take the RDA test and to rent the equipment I would need for the test (which to me is ridiculous because I'm paying a fortune already and my tution should be covering everything I need to succeed and because they toys me they would certify me) To be honest I'm not to sure how I graduated cuz I didn't get all my stuff done in time and the teacher forged her name to say I completed the course and because of that I'm not properly train in my field and which make it difficult for me to get a job because I was not certified correctly and I don't feel comfortable working in someones mouth. This school should be closed down and return my money.Read Less"

"UEI is a fabulous college. Just like any other school, you get what you give. The ratings of 1 or 2 stars are most likely from people who not only didn't apply themselves, but did not take the job or interview seriously. I still have 6 weeks of school left and have already begun receiving job offers of 15-18 dollars an hour with absolutely no experience. If you are serious about changing your life and beginning a career, come to UEI, but only if you have what it takes to show potential employers that you're worth more than 9 dollars an hour. The instructors are beyond wonderful here as well as career services. They will do whatever they can to place you where you deserve to be placed. Prove you're worth 20 and hour and you'll get there. Otherwise, you'll be stuck at 9 since you couldn't prove you were worth more than that.Read Less"
