    This was to be a 2 year LPN program for $20,000. I have been in school now for 3 1/2 years. I paid my bill in full in October 2023 but am now being billed for more (one statement said $400, one said $565 and one says $985) so I am not even sure if or what I owe them.I made 80-90% throughout my program, but when it came time for the exit exam only 2 people out of ***** passed. We (my classmates) were told we could take the test again (if we paid our remaining balance) but only 3 people passed. We were then told we needed to take (and pay for) more classes but we as a group refused. We have gone in for 30 hours of study time at the school and were to take the test for a 3rd time May 23rd. The statement for $985 was sent on May 8th. Tuesday the 21st I was told I couldn't take the test unless I paid it in full. I did go in and they allowed me to take the test without paying because I argued with them until they let me. Once again, only 1 person passed.I have spent a great deal of money to get an education. With such a small class size, there is no excuse for such a low pass rate. I believe I have been scammed out of this hard earned money.

    This business has lost my information and my family and I have spent about $5,000 from here and paid it off. But they're withholding my transcript and saying I need to pay $990 - I am in the state of ** and what they're doing is illegal. They told me to contact a lawyer or report them to the ***** of ********** Also my mother had given checks to be processed but on certain dates - instead they processed it all at once and made her account go into the negatives and have lost a $2,000 check when given to them.

    This place steals money and tells their students other wise. People are required to pay $20,000 but none of the staff/teachers provide of what you've paid  for. Including $400 worth of supplies. People have been scammed here.
