Charter College Online Rankings by Salary Score

I started Charter College with the intention of getting my CMA certificate in a matter of 10 months. The enrollment process was fairly easy, but the enrollment personnel definitely brush over a lot of things. First, I wasn't told that at the end of your program, you have a five week UNPAID externship. I was not made aware of this until one of my instructors mentioned it to me after my second mod of school. (Keep in mind, while I was in school, I was a CNA living paycheck to paycheck.) I was trying to figure... Read More out how I would pay all of my bills during this time. After this incident, I looked at my financial aid to see if I qualified for any kind of stipend to cover my expenses during the 5 week period. Not only did I not qualify for anything, but I found out that my tuition was $24,000!! When I was being enrolled in the program, no one discussed tuition and only told me that my financial aid covered it. I feel that the way they recruit students is like a predator finding someone to prey on. Thankfully, I got a job that trains MAs in a matter of six weeks. The things I've learned in my first two weeks have been far more beneficial than what I learned in the Charter College program (all while being paid to be working). I had ONE good instructor and another who didn't know what she was talking about. The amount that you pay to go to school does not nearly equate to the amount of money that you make as a medical assistant anywhere in the U.S. I dropped out of the program and saved myself from $10k in additional student loans. Best. Decision. Ever.

What a joke! very disappointing for 20,000$... The teachers hardly respond to your teams messeges along with emails. There is nobody on the same page or behind. HUGE LACK IN COMUNICATION between anyone you are always lost... The head person from Vancouver WA accused a student of stealing a laptop as well even though she had her own... I would not send anybody here I would tell someone to spend the extra money else where. When we went back to in person I missed the first night of my class because no emails... Read More were sent out about in person lectures. When I brought this to my teacher attention she just said I need to get my eyes checked.
