    There are many reasons I left this school when I did. Was promised money, but never saw a dime.

    What a beautiful campus but yet so small. The child will be attending here in fall so we came and…read moreconquered. It's a beautiful campus, small compared to so many others that we saw. The College is actually of Catholic background. Lawd knows if I was attending there would be spontaneous combustion since I am banned from churches, but it's not about me so let me stop. The actual dorms are rather roomy and nice. It was hard to leave my signature when it came to financial portion, but hey the child will have an awesome education, so it will be worth it. The main office is located in the vintage portion of the college, that kind of scared me- but once our tour was started, I quickly saw the newer and safer buildings that were part of the campus. Wow, these kids will have better eats then I did. They have their own restaurant which of course has three courses from breakfast to dinner. Really good and healthy food too. And their gymnasium is pretty big also. I think that I you decide to go here (and it is 3 hours away from Chicago), you will be impressed.

    My low rating pertains to mainly the doctorate of physical therapy program. I felt as an undergrad…read morethat I was groomed for acceptance to the DPT program but was denied every time I applied, even though I followed all of their instructions. I majored in exercise science and had no other options for a career once I graduated with my undergrad. They did not look out for me or care what happened to me once I graduated. This is not a one time occurrence. Someone close to me was also completely screwed over by Ambrose's DPT program. He had to transfer schools mid-program due to Ambrose's misguided and unfair program. They told him false-promises that resulted in a worse situation for him. He followed all instructions from director, Mike Puthoff, to be able to stay but was thrown out and abandoned without remorse. Overall, Mike Puthoff is a two-faced, unfair, and mediocre program director with DPT passing rates plummeting ever since he took over. He has poor management over instructors in his program and has yet to prove any care towards the students he teaches. The material taught at Ambrose is mediocre at best and needs to be re-evaluated along with their director.

    I was attending Kaplan online.I withdrew and was told my balance was $1,210 but that there was a…read moreloan I could take to pay for that. I took the loan and on my last conversation with them I was assured my balance was paid in full and my acct, was down to $ 0. I have never been contacted from Kaplan again. Now I got a call from a collection agency telling me Kaplan sold them my account and that I owe $ 1300. I contacted Kaplan and requested the transcript of the call where I was informed my acct. was paid in full and they say they can't send it to me. And today after they reported me to collections they were willing to take yet another payment from me for $ 1210. Be careful what school you enroll with, stay away from low-level education crooks like Kaplan University.

    I attended Kaplan, and it was a great school until my husband passed away. My GPA was a 3.8. The…read moreway the course runs is great. But they are very expensive and shady. So my husband passed suddenly and I advised them that i needed time off. they wanted to give me about 4 months off. I told them that i was not ready but they kept those counselors calling everyday. I was pressured into going back to school when I was not ready and what made it worst was while i was back in I wanted to drop my classes at that time because my sister passed. These people didn't want to hear anything about that. I needed to go to school and finish these classes. Well one year later I am going strong in class passing all of my classes when I get that phone call telling me that I had to pay them 1200.00 for a class that i didn't pass. This was during the time that my sister passed. I called the school just to get the run around. Now someone tells me I should have asked for emergency leave and taken a year off. Well hell that is what i was doing but they refused to help a the time. Never heard anything else from them. I am trying to transfer my classes from Kaplan University to a local Universality and these people refuse to give me my transcript until i fork over the 1200.00 I am paying it but I would advise anyone to look at other universities before choosing this one.
