Do NOT trust these people. All the reviews about the financial aid are true. My counselor was Daniel, seemed sweet, at first, but definitely has a strange vibe in person. I asked him About the terrible reviews on the school and he replied with "ok who doesn't have bad reviews" DIDNT acknowledge the seriousness of the matter of people being scammed, charged, and harassed about their money, especially after graduating. He made a dumb snarky comment because I am on vacation before my classes start, "vacations hit different when you have a career" Lmfao I've never experienced such an unprofessional, invasive counselor. When I called out that behavior and inappropriate comment , he proceeded to say "says a lot about you" Actually Daniel it says a LOT MORE about YOU and "yOuR sChOol" Save your money, and go to a real institution that will take you seriously, and not just use you for you cash. read more

My son was going there to be a diesel technician! He started in June 2023 and was told he would be out of the classroom and in the lab after 2 1/2 weeks tops!! The beginning of September he still was sitting in the classroom and told to just read the books and take notes, the teacher would just sit on his phone. So a few kids in his class said something to the teacher and the dean that they were told they would be in the lab no longer then 3 weeks after starting school, they were told that the recruiters just say that to get people to insist . A few weeks later my son called me and said he was going to quit because nothing had changed and the instructor actually fell asleep in class!! So I got involved and said that something needed to change!! The next week they finally got in the lab and was enjoying actually being hands on learning how to work on vehicles! Unfortunately to that only lasted a little over a month. The end of November my son finally said he couldn't do it any more, they were back to just reading books and doing modules all the time. He was not learning ANYTHING and paying a ton to do it. I told him to talk to someone higher up and when he did they said "this is how we run this school and we don't really care if you don't like it We feel so lies to and have to pay for months of NOTHING!!! If I could personally tell everyone who is even thinking about going here to run the other direction I would!! Definitely a terrible experience and after reading all the reviews that are so similar to ours, I'm really surprised thia school is even able to be open or have students go there. I feel for anyone that has ever or will ever step foot in this school! They are taking advantage of kids and it needs to stop! read more

Worst experience of my life. Complete waste of money. The Dental Assistant teachers are catty and incompetent.

If you value your money and education I highly recommend not going to this school or any Lincoln Technical Institute. Biggest mistake I ever made. All they give concern about you for is your money. Super unethical and unprofessional with teachers who give attitude. If I could give 0 stars I would. I've had classmates who either dropped out because of the system of the school or have been kicked out for the dumbest reasons. 1000/100 WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. read more

I had a really, really good interview & tour today at Lincoln Technical Institute. From the two receptionists, to the interviewer to the financial aid officer; all four of whom were very, very kind to me. And per the tour: Their training facilities are awesome! read more

I hate this school used to be CEI and changed because they suck I went to get certified since they never did that for me and they said I can't because even though I have 5 years experience as an ma I haven't been in the field in the last 2 years so I can't further my degree 14,000 later thanks read more

This is the most unethical, unprofessional and ghetto school we have been to. If you like to waste your money we would highly recommend this school since this is the only thing they care about. When starting the program they told us we would be able to choose where we wanted to go to complete out externship, but ended up sending us to places without even asking if we were okay with it. Most of the teachers are nice but some of them will act like they on their menopause period and treat you like a piece of you know what, only having you do practice and not actually making you learn anything. They will make you pay for a lot of unnecessary things and the money you get left they will take it and act like they used it to cover for the school cost while charging you even more Everytime something comes up. On top of all the money the students had to pay, we couldn't even get a decent graduation. This was the most ghetto graduation we had ever been to, where they couldn't even place us in order to call our names and we had to pass them a paper with our name on it as we stood on the stage so they could say our names. All the awards where given saying that the students who got them got a 4.0 gpa when some of them even failed their classes, and didn't even have anything to those who did work hard and were deserving of it. In the middle of finishing paperwork to go on externship the externship coordinator quit and had us sitting at home a whole month waiting to see what would happen. Because Of this some of us were unfairly dropped from the program. We really do not recommend this school, the first red flag should have been that they are a FOR PROFIT SCHOOL, or even that we came in for a "tour" and they made us sign paperwork and fill out financial aid so we can start ASAP. Do better Lincoln tech. read more

We had an appointment with Lincoln tech and still need to wait extra 30 minutes even we got there early 15 minutes. We went to get more information about class that we had interested. Well the lady who gave us information were just ok not great. We found out they tried to push you to register because the price will increase after new year for some how and some reasons. Then we asked about how to pay for school. They have financial loans available and tell to to apply for the loan if we qualify. But we said if we don't really need a loan what the payment would be. They said "oh I never heard or have anyone study here without loaning" and asked me that how I paid for my college in past. And then she asked me to met with people from the loan department and let us watch the video about financial anyway. Well they didn't provided any informations about the class and how many percentage that students have passing their class but told us that so many companies contacted them for new glads but they couldn't have enough grad students. I was very interesting for study in Lincoln tech but after that was turned me reconsideration. read more

I was on the phone with someone from Lincoln Tech, a lady who was very rude to me. I asked a few questions about some classes and she proceeded to correct me and make snarky comments. When I got off the phone with her I was so disappointed and she ended the phone call with "okay see you later then" in a very rude way. read more

Please I'm begging anyone who's thinking of going here don't do it. I didn't listen to my aunt when she said there was nothing but horrible things being said about this school and I know now why that is true. All they care about is money, your loan will constantly fluctuate and they called me in about 4 times to sign new paperwork for a "change" in my loan. I finished school over a month ago and still haven't been placed for externship. It's a joke, 5 people have quit INCLUDING my externship coordinator so they're scrambling to find me a placement, and when they "do" reach out, they're saying no one is responding to calls or emails about hosting externs. Please please do not go here. I couldn't even get a decent graduation. They gave us a flash card with our name on it and we had to walk on stage and pass it to the lady so she can read our name. Imagine the embarrassment standing in the middle of the stage while she reads your name off a index card to finish walking the other half of the stage. Very unorganized and unprofessional. Not to mention if you miss 1 day for being sick you need a doctors letter and even if you bring one it's not guaranteed to be excused because "being sick" isn't a good enough excuse to miss school. read more

I will not recommend this school to anyone they are overprice, I attended to the dental assistant program and they conveniently forget to mention that you don't have to attend to any program to become a dental assistant, if you thinking about it I will advice you to save $20,000 and just apply to a dental office the offered training at the job, they get the same exact certification that we do and we get paid the same. We have to do 300 hours of externship, and they have to do 350 but we waste 9 months of school and end up with a big student loan and they don't, this is with out counting how the staff treat you and make your life miserable, they don't care to help you they just care to get you to sing up. But this is not the worst part about it they never prepare you for your state boards 70% of the dental students don't pass it and they never tell you when you are going to sing up, that you have to pass 2 states bord and and a ethics exam. read more

Lincoln tech in somerville what a horrible school. I was called for a tour. The staff was unprofessional and judgemental. They judged me the minute i walked through the doors. The staff member said " Can you believe that she passed?". On the tour we needed to go up a floor. She told me to use the elevator and shed use the stairs. Just because im not thin doesnt mean i cant do flights of stairs. Do not go to this school. read more

They will tell you your credits are transferable but they're not. Not a helpful review, I know. I just don't even know where to begin with this place! read more

Place operates just on the legal side of outright fraud. They take people of little means, often recent immigrants, and purport to give them just enough education to get a job that they could make maybe $13-15/hour for-- at the "bargain" price of 25-30k. Bad credit, no problem! They will float you a loan at 10% interest-- a sucker deal if every there was one. If you or your kid has a change of heart, also no problem. But it will cost you 5k just to walk through the door--- for which they will come after you. Unlike most community colleges, there is no add/drop period. The minute you sign, you owe. Remember, this place exists for one reason only: to make money. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure the alleged human beings who own this place are making a killing. But do yourself a favor-- seek out a community college or non-profit training center. For many of these occupations, health care institutions may offer on the job training. Don't waste your time and money on this "educational" rip off. read more

This is just an update for any prospective Lincoln tech students. As a former student I can honestly tell you this school has the worse job placement of any technical school in Massachusetts. They hire the creepiest debt collectors who will not only call you and threaten to ruin your credit but the school also gave these creeps my emergency phone contact who was my mother, her number. Til this day, she gets emails and occasional calls from a bogus student debt collection agency that offers help. When u ask who they are, they hang up on you. Till this day, Lincoln tech, not FedLoan, but Lincoln tech faithfully reports to all 3 credit agencies any delinquent payments. The school will also charge you for every day you would have been in class if you have to leave the school and cannot return right away. They federal govt continues to try and discredit this school. Think of Lincoln tech as a credit rebuilding debit card or a credit card. If u miss one payment they stick it up your bum sideways, and then make sure you can't poop for a year. If you are are the first in your family to attend higher learning, congrats!!! Do you and your family a favor, try out Ben Franklin or some other school, you will be glad you stayed away from this school read more

Anyone considering coming here please reconsider and try elsewhere. This school was just a waste of time and money. 18,000$ down the drain being paid off and they didn't even provide me with a job like they said they would when I signed my life away on the dotted line. As soon as they receive their money from you through loans they forget you even exist. I wanted to believe this was a good school but its nowhere close to being good. I'm very sure I'm not the only person with this issue. You pass your classes and do whatever you were told to do just to find yourself applying for a fast food or retail job to pay off the very debt Lincoln tech has put on your shoulders. If you want to build a career do yourself a favor and stay away from this school by any means necessary. read more
