The financial aid is an absolute joke! I came to them with the same question on 4 different…read moreoccasions and got 4 separate answers which didn't work together at all. The classes and on campus residency is overpriced for the "services" they give. They claim to have on campus jobs for students that work around your classes schedule, which is only a half truth. They never get back to you even when you physically go to check in on how things are going hiring-wise. They really do treat you like a number as far as their system is set up. The staff (for the most part) are very nice but sometimes make you wonder if they even know the answers to what should be easy to understand questions. The professors in my specific field are extremely friendly and helpful but this is overshadowed by how uncaring the schools system is to you as a student. I also don't recommend the student housing, as it's one thing to expect everything in the building to be made cheaply, but they do nothing to enforce a respectful place; People can blare loud music that's very easy to hear through the paper thin walls, and nothing is done, people can stomp relentlessly through all hours of the day as upstairs neighbors and receive nothing but a mild slap on the wrist for being a nuisance, not to mention many of the facilities in the apartment were broken or suboptimal UPON MOVING IN! They also expect you to pay extra if you want to stay during winter break which is pretty much forced of you if you have nowhere else to go. Lastly the Director of student housing is just unprofessional and extremely rude. Don't expect to be cared for or any of your words or belongings to be respected.

I completed all of my aid documents 4 months before classes were set to start and due to the financial aid department not processing it timely, I missed all the classes I needed. I have never experienced anything like this. Go to Lane or Umpqua, much smoother registration process.

The Yelp listing gives the address for the donation end; the retail end is a few blocks away at 980 McKinley St. More info is at http://nextsteprecycling.org/locations-html My dad's old Mac died, and he needed a replacement more affordable than the $1,200+ quoted at The Mac Store. Next Step's retail store set him up with a 2006 iMac on OS 10.7.5. The base price was $299.99, but, any time you make a donation at the donation end of Next Step, you get a 20% off coupon for the retail store, so we made a donation in advance of our purchase and got the computer for $239.99 with the coupon. Had my dad been willing to switch to a PC, he could have got something even cheaper -- and Next Step's PCs are all on Windows 7. Next Step also referred us to Techmedic in the Big Y Shopping Center for transfer of data from the old Mac to the new-to-him one, and that cost only $80, less than the $99 quoted at The Mac Store. As for the donation end: If you have privacy concerns about donating old computers, techs at the donation center will remove the hard drives for you if you ask. For most computers this is a simple process, but I once brought in an old Mac laptop on a Saturday afternoon and was told to bring it back on a weekday so a more experienced tech could extract the hard drive -- I did so, and then I didn't have it sitting in my attic any longer.

I went in for my CNA skills test today and everything seemed perfectly fine. I checked in at the…read morefront desk and the instructor seemed nice at first. I was waiting in the designated waiting area and over heard the instructor bitching about a student who was not there yet. Apparently the student was running a couple minutes late due to the really bad weather. Once the student arrived I heated the instructor being extremely rude to the student. So, after that ordeal another student in the waiting area decided to leave due to over hearing everything that had just happened. Due to the attitude and energy the instructor displayed it made everyone else extremely nervous and honestly made me have very bad anxiety going into my skills. Once in the skills testing area the instructor was very rude to me as well. I understand everyone has bad days but I hope the instructor realizes that a lot of the students are nervous because they are taking their state skills test and her acting the way she did and treating the students the way she did was unacceptable. Hopefully this place will get a new instructor soon!

In that time, I have found Rick Cooper to be the most professional and most knowledgeable CPR instructor in our area. His passion for saving lives coupled with decades of hands on experience has given him an expertise on best practice for ensuring a favorable outcome. Mr. Cooper's teaching style is easy to follow and learn from. He provides an encouraging and supportive environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and practice my skills. Should I ever have a loved one in need of CPR, I hope it would be him providing those services, or at the very least, someone who he has trained who has his zeal for saving lives. I highly recommend him as an Instructor. -Karli Kinney Student Nurse
