This was the only experience I had during this review. The parking was easy and appreciate that it was free for this event. The security was good, they had metal detectors and lots of people to check you in. The only problem was that we brought in our stadium chairs and when we got to the security area, they told us we were not allowed to bring our stadium chairs in bc they were considered weapons. So we had to go back to our car and put them back. We needed those chairs bc my husband has chronic back pain and sitting on bleachers for a long period of time hurts his back. When we got inside, we saw so many people with stadium chairs! WTH? That was so disappointing and sucked to be sitting on bleachers for so long with back pains and not all security were trained the same to follow the same protocols. But anyway, this was a special occasion and we were not about to get mad and ruin our day. The restrooms were clean and they also had food there which was good. Expensive food but no choice but to buy it there. Anyway, thanks for the day just wished it wasn't ruin by untrained security staff.

I'm writing this to make it clear the negative reviews about this program are not lies. I…read moreexperienced the same issues. During COVID-19 I was in the, veterinary assistant program, I was told there would still be hands-on lab training, just modified. That did not happen. Lab exposure was extremely limited, and the instruction was inconsistent. The second instructor was frequently late, absent, and unprepared. I documented in my graduate survey that she was inadequate for lab instruction which is a serious issue for a hands-on program and no one ever followed up. Most of the "teaching" consisted of reading directly from a textbook, with little to no practical application. It felt like self-teaching rather than an actual program. Cost vs. Value Total cost: $17,506 Out-of-pocket: about $6,130 I was charged $515 for e-books that barely worked and had to go back to campus for physical books. The laptop provided also did not function properly during class. For that price, the education should reflect, it did not. Reality Check I'm currently continuing my education toward my RVT license through a program that costs around $8,000 and is far more structured. This program does not even lead to a license, yet costs more than double. Externship By the time I reached externship, I was not prepared at all. My first site wouldn't even let me participate, and I lost a month. I had to transfer. I didn't actually learn basic skills until my second externship which should have been taught in the program. Concerns I raised multiple concerns directly with Lourdes Valencia over the phone and was told, "you signed up for this." During one call, she forgot to hang up, and I overheard her and another staff member speaking negatively about me. This was extremely unprofessional and discouraging, especially after I had just expressed my concerns. I documented this experience in my graduate survey, yet there was no follow-up. It is very concerning that such feedback was submitted and seemingly ignored. Now that I'm continuing my education, it's clear how inadequate the training was, and it raises serious concerns about whether students are being taken advantage of. Pattern Matters Yes, some reviews are positive, but many negative reviews share the same exact issues. Students (including myself) have documentation of what we paid. At some point, when multiple people are saying the same thing including former staff it cannot just be dismissed. Final Thought My 4.0 GPA was from my own effort, not the program. I did not sign up for an inadequate education. I signed up for what was promised during admissions, and that is not what I received. I am currently in communication with the school and hoping for resolution. Until then: Do not spend your money here if you expect real training and support.

Enrolling in the Automotive Technician program at UEI College in Gardena was a defining moment in…read moremy career journey. What began as a goal to learn a trade quickly became a foundation for future business ownership, and much of that growth is credited to Mr. Raul Ramirez. Mr. Ramirez is an exceptional instructor and a true genius in automotive technology. He is meticulous, demanding, and uncompromising in his standards, yet always fair and respectful to every student. His unannounced, self-designed exams required complete mastery of the material and accurately reflected the pressure and expectations of real-world service centers. With experience at Tesla and other professional facilities, he consistently brought real-life scenarios into the classroom, teaching not only technical skills but professionalism, problem-solving, and operational thinking. While in his program, I balanced school with working as a professional tattoo artist and was honored to be selected as class ambassador. I graduated with a 3.89 GPA and, after graduation, secured a part-time position at DWP Auto Tech Services. Mr. Ramirez's mentorship and discipline provided the foundation and mindset I need as I work toward owning both an automotive repair shop and a tattoo business. I am truly honored to have been his student.
