The nursing and dental hygiene programs are difficult (whose programs aren't?), but the pass rates for both programs are exceptional. The HVAC program is outstanding, and the director of that program is well connected and extremely informative. In all programs, many of the instructors have been there for several years. The students who focus their efforts...do well. But many students come into the program thinking that it's going to be a piece a cake and it really isn't. There will be countless hours of studying, and homework. And some of the students who fail out of the program blame the school for that, when in reality they either weren't prepared for the amount of work or just couldn't pass. I've watched hundreds of students graduate over the years and get jobs for 2-4 times what they made before they enrolled, and it is life changing money for them. Fortis College is a good school, and yes, it is expensive, but it's a better option than waiting five years on a waiting list to get into a less expensive school. The overall length of the programs are also much shorter, and this allows the graduate to begin working much faster than a traditional college or university.

I can only speak of my experience at Fortis College and their RN program. First, YES, some of the…read moreinstructors/faculty do care for the success of students. Dr. J, Dean Smithers, Dallen, Professor Gayani, and Professor Rains are genuinely amazing people. However, the turn over of Deans' and instructors really hit me at the beginning of my second year. I was harassed and even bullied by some of the teachers and one past Dean. I tried to lay low and keep my head down after personally breaking down in front of one, when I had enough. One professor literally made me cry and just stared at me with dead eyes, later she had continuous mental break downs during lectures, and would say the most cynical things about nursing and her personal problems. A past Dean singled me out and would take me to an isolation room where she would spook me out before big exams. I should have left then. However, I kept it private, in fear that the "gang" of mean girl teachers would continue to gate-keep and retaliate with grading. I presented the documentation for accommodations- which they miss led me to believe they would provide, I only requested isolated testing. Did not happen. Three retakes and one appeal later, still no accommodation. Testing for HESI with absolutely no preparation besides a shot at remediation. That's where my time at Fortis was wrapped up- with a $19,000 student loan to pay, no degree. One HESI was a 799- you need a 850+ to pass all core nursing courses. Just be aware of the credits being trash, only other private* for -profit schools will consider transferring, the amount of disrespect you'll have to endure, the falsifying of financial agreements you will indeed encounter here, and breaking the law ( American disability act), other than those issues- it was a fun roller coaster ride and *MY biggest life lesson* which is priceless! I made some true blue friends from the trauma bond, as well! ( I'm currently going back to S.L.C.C ) where I have real credits that didn't expire, and most importantly, I will not have to start (completely from scratch). Out of my friend group (5) there was only one who made it through, one they convinced to be a guinea pig for their 'NEW'- LPN program, and three of us- left to figure out how we got bamboozled? (Emotionally, mentally, and financially- I never recommended Fortis to anyone, I cared about...it's that much of a gamble. The proof is on the walls* The 'Hunger games' begin, around (pharmacology- med surg 1) A cohort of ( 35 students - 25 students) = 10 students will continue...This is the weeding out process- they only want the (top scorers) in the end* to fatten their pockets* and to claim their NCLEX passing rate is legit.

The Other Side Academy is changing people's lives....literally. This facility is full run by…read morestudents and graduates-folks who have made bad choices (self proclaimed) and have decided to turn their lives around. They don't take money from the government or accept insurance and it's totally free for students to participate. (In fact, the longer you stay, you have an opportunity to make money while you're here.) It's not a traditional rehab center-in fact, they don't call it a rehab center at all. It's a home where students commit to live, contribute and abide by incredibly strict behavior protocol for not just months, but years. Their success rate is off the charts and students who graduate from the program are given tools to succeed at life, not just sent on their way. The funding for the Academy is mostly self-funded from their social enterprises (moving company, thrift stores, donut shops, etc.) which are all run by the students. The curriculum is rigorous with accountability and humility as the main theme that runs throughout. It's not for the faint of heart and they don't sugar coat anything, but if people are ready to make a significant change in their lives, this place will help them.

Fast forward 4 years, 10 months and 1 day and I have officially achieved my final goal by accepting an offer to fly for a major airline. I have no doubt that Lois and the team at Upper Limit Aviation helped make my dream come true. Through consistent support and the guidance I needed I was able to fast track what was needed to get where I wanted to be. Time and time again Upper Limit continued to impress. If you are on the fence about flying, I can't recommend enough that you head in for a discovery flight and get to know the staff. After that your decision will be an easy one. Thank you ULA!!

Incredible customer service and so much more! I started…read moreAgent Professor RE School in November, 2016 and I finished up first week of January 2017. I have been very happy with the school, here is why. CUSTOMER SERVICE: They are very quick to respond to email and the director of the school even posts his own phone number on the website so you can contact him directly. Now who does that!?!? NAVIGATION: It is VERY EASY to navigate through the pages and chapters. You just open the chapter and look at the check marks next the each section - if you've completed it, it will have a check mark. Plus you can go at your own pace, you can do the chapters out of order, you can go back and review each section, you can re-take chapter test and unit quizzes, you can take up to a year to complete the course...simply put, your in the drivers seat, and that is awesome. COST: Easily the most affordable program, why pay up to 50% more for the same thing. ACCREDITATION: This school is one of the schools recommended and approved on the Utah Division of RE. Enough said! SCHOOL COMPARISON: This is the second time I have gone to RE school (I let my licence expire a few years ago, so I have to do this again :-/ ) Agent Professor is by far the better of the two schools. EXAM: Agent Profesor has a 16% HIGHER pass rate than other schools in Utah. Again - why pay more? And finally - I love that was able to do the whole course from home, and I was able to study late at night or early in the morning --- I have and will continue to recommend Agent Professor Real Estate School to everyone!

I'm writing this response while I wait for the time to pass, so I can move on to the next part of a lesson. I've randomly been logged out in the middle of their quizzes. I've been told my % wasn't at 100% even, when I passed all of the lessons AND let the time tick down to zero. The videos are extremely outdated and some are a complete waste of time, like the one on what the word "fudiciary" means. Their review exercises are created by the student....which means you have to wait 20-30 minutes for the clock to tick down so you can move on. They have assignments where you have to go find a video or blog and then post a link-- maybe we are creating better material for future students??? How many times can we be asked how a lesson has increased our desire to be ethical? Apparently, after every stinking lesson. The essay responses always get a passing grade, no matter what you write in them. I'm not impressed at all.

I went to EMT Utah for my Basic EMT and it was probably the worst education I have ever received…read more Instructors were inattentive, lacked communication, and disorganized. While taking the course there were two days when instructors did not even show up to the class. And when they did, they often did not know what they needed to go over that day because there were so many different instructors and they would not communicate with each other. It took 3 attempts to pass the NREMT as I felt like the education was lacking and I had to teach myself everything in the textbook after class was over. Of those I have talked to from class, only about half of them say they were capable of passing the NREMT, showing a huge flaw in the education received from EMT Utah.
