I heard that UCR is an excellent, top-tier research institution for biology majors and is recommended for pre-med students. The layout of the school is nice, and the campus is pretty big.

This institution is an environment I strongly advise parents to avoid. My experience has shown that…read moreif a student seeks help through the university's therapy services, there is a significant risk that the staff will actively work to sever the bond between the student and their family. The therapists here appear to engage in a process of alienation, influencing students to completely cut off their parents rather than fostering healthy family dynamics or reconciliation. It is my belief that these practitioners prioritize their own professional agendas over the well-being of the family unit. Please be aware that sending your child here may result in a complete loss of contact and influence over their lives due to the questionable methods used by the psychology department.

I didn't know Stanbridge is not accredited by CCNE or ACEN, meaning you will essentially have to start from scratch if going for your RN or BSN. If you don't plan on doing more than an associates degree, only then is it a great option. I'm writing this in hopes it will save someone from wasting their time at this school. I wish I never went... money & time wasted. I have to start all over now.

If you are a veteran considering National University, please learn from my experience: this school…read moreseems far more interested in collecting military benefits than actually providing a quality education. From the start, I felt like just another paycheck to them rather than a student. The classes are rushed, the support is minimal, and it's clear that the focus is on enrollment numbers and tuition payments rather than genuine learning. What ultimately pushed me away, however, was my experience with my assigned counselor, Sabria. She has been condescending, dismissive, and completely unhelpful. Anytime I asked questions, her responses were short, rude, and delivered with an attitude that made me feel like I was bothering her for simply trying to understand my own education plan. Her incompetence and lack of professionalism are the driving factors in my decision to leave this program. As a veteran, I worked hard to earn my benefits. I expected a university that respected that sacrifice and invested in my success--not one that exploits it. If you're a veteran thinking about enrolling here, I strongly suggest looking elsewhere.

I began the Phlebotomy course back in June of 2019. I was nervous about entering in a whole new…read morefield. Having a change in career I knew phlebotomy was a good start after thorough research. At first point of contact with US Colleges, admissions was very friendly and encouraging about the course and career opportunities and made it clear that students would receive help with whatever they needed. And of course they waste no time to collect your money; roughly $3000 and of course one late payment and it'll affect you. LECTURE: as a first timer in the medical field it went better than I thought. Vicky, my instructor was great! She gave us complete explanations and made the learning experience wonderful. I put in the work and dedication and scored 98% on midterm and 100% on final. It's not that hard when you want it and have desire to pay attention and study. LAB: it was interesting practicing in the lab but you do get to learn the techniques and give you an idea of an actual setting. All I can say about the process is, please go the extra mile to be gentle and do things as painless as possible. It is such a GREAT FEELING when people say, "I didn't even feel that!" but of course, results will vary. Volunteers for lab is helpful but come on now, it's not that easy for all us to get someone to come in and let a noobie stab them. NHA: PAY AN EXTRA $117. The test was very weird, DO NOT RELY ON LECTURE to pass NHA. It is very different and questions on there will throw you off. So make sure to STUDY the NHA MATERIAL and not focus on your lecture notes only, but it is PASSABLE. EXTERNSHIP AUG 2019: they sent me to a small clinic where they don't have a Phlebotomist position so I did ALOT of standing around doing nothing even when I tried to do my best and stay busy and learn new things to take advantage of my time there. I was able to get all my draws in but definitely feels like watching paint dry for hours. CAREER SERVICE: they have been very friendly and assure you they will help you in anyway whatever it takes. I am willing to work in a position that does not require a CPT1 license but no luck at all. I apply and apply and try to stay encouraged but no luck. I am still working on it so job placement is still ongoing... APPYLING FOR LICENSE: PAY AN EXTRA $100 to apply PREPARE TO WAIT FOREVER and GO OUT OF YOUR WAY. Laboratory Field Services is such a joke. They sent me an email saying they received my application but haven't received my college transcripts. I called Cal Poly Registrars office and they confirmed the official transcripts were sent to LSF (the address US Colleges gave me) before LSF sent me the email. Cal Poly was not on the list of schools under the website US Colleges gave me to order transcripts from and National Student Clearinghouse said the LSF address was not recognized by USPS. I had a rep from Cal Poly trying to get a hold of them to confirm my transcripts were sent but with LSF only having a 1 star rating on google reviews, I'm afraid they had no luck getting through. ITS INCONVENIENT because I have to go out my way to prove that I in fact sent in my transcripts so my application does not expire (60 days). FRONT DESK: Front Desk Management, Isaiah, has been able work with me and keep me updated and also go out of his way to help. He has made my communication and process easy thus far. OCT 2019: It is now Fall and I haven't had any luck with career services or applying on my own (I can't do much without my license and not sure what I can work as or where without a license) I find myself applying to positions for my previous career because in reality, we just need to pay the bills. Credit services jumps on you if you miss a payment (which I haven't thankfully) but I just wish the there was more doing rather than reassuring at the school. Time goes by and retaining what I learned is getting more difficult if I don't spend time reviewing old notes and test guides. I will still apply as a CPT or work in a medical related position because I refuse to give up but honestly, feels like I'm gambling $3000 right now. **if i get employed as a CPT sooner or later, I will do a follow up review (if yelp allows for multiple reviews by the same person, I don't know to be honest).

And they want to give me an attitude. They don't care about your education. They care about their image and looking good
