Okay - I'll preface this by saying that Apollo has changed their name to Carrington College, and…read morethat this is the same review as I posted for that listing. Free dental cleaning and x-rays is pretty dang awesome. Especially if you're on a shoestring budget - which I'm pretty sure at least half of the residents of Portland are - free isn't something to be sneezed at. Additionally, everyone is friendly and helpful, the clinic itself is clean and well appointed, and the entire process is a pleasure - at least inasmuch as having your teeth scraped by pointy metal bits can be termed pleasurable. That said, make sure you've got some serious spare time on your hands when you make your first appointment. If time is money, then I paid through the nose, as it took four appointments if two hours each to get through the entire process. These folk are good, but they are students (supervised) which means they'll take their time.

Multnomah University is an excellent choice for building friendships, learning about God and His…read moreWord and for falling in love with the Savior. Many people say it's changed a lot since it was founded and in some ways they are right. But who is to say that change is always a bad thing? Women are allowed to wear pants now, men can grow facial hair (cinco de mustache), and there is a new business program! I like a lot of the change. What I appreciate even more, however, is that the focal point of the institution is the same as it has always been - the Bible. Amidst the required general ed courses are classes which do two things: educate students regarding biblical knowledge, and instill a passion and love for Jesus Christ. Another reviewer on Yelp mentioned that they disliked how professors disagree on different doctrinal beliefs. In my opinion, however, iron sharpens iron. Students are given the opportunity to hear different Biblical scholars, and then choose for themselves what they believe based upon what the Scripture is saying. Sure, some may walk away saying we have free will, others saying we don't. Some will interpret the text to say women can't speak in church, and still others will say that doesn't apply any more. They don't agree on everything, but the professors all agree on the Gospel, the good news of Salvation for sinners through Christ's atoning work on the cross. Multnomah does not create Christian robots who all believe the same thing and act the same way. It creates educated men and women who graduate with a better understanding of God's Word and how much they are loved by their Creator. The community is amazing, the professors are personable, the sports are fun, the classes are enjoyable and I am so happy I chose Multnomah. Go Lions!

Do NOT go here. This is the most non Christian university you can attend. I can probably count the…read moreamount of good professors and coaches on one hand. The financial aid process is horrendous and if you owe them money, they make it almost impossible to pay off debt. They don't listen to student concerns about the community, I know a lot more people who have chosen to transfer out than I know people who have graduated from here. I also know a lot of staff members who have left this institution due to gross policies and beliefs from other staff in higher, more influential positions. Just don't do it. Don't put yourself through the headache and heartbreak you'll experience at this institution.

I have an interesting history with Reed. I initially applied to Reed as an undergraduate in 1992,…read moreand got waitlisted for admission. It was in my top ten college choices because it "fit the bill" of schools I applied to. I went with Hampshire College instead, mainly because I wanted to stay close to home on the east coast and go to college in New England. Reed was a more selective school like Amherst or Oberlin was to get into, but had a campus culture that was more like Bard, Sarah Lawrence or Hampshire's granted it just happened to be on the West Coast. In 1994, after my first year at Hampshire, I took a road trip west with some Hampshire friends to spend time in Portland for the Summer. I TOTALLY fell in love with Portland, and Oregon, and found it a relaxing and cultured place to base myself (I'm from NYC), and Portland had a pretty interesting theater & film scene, so I wanted to come back and explore it more and decided I'd take my academic leave after my second year at Hampshire and base myself in Portland for at least a year. In the Summer of 1995, after I'd finished up my second year at Hampshire, I moved out to Portland from the east coast after filing to go on academic leave for the 1995/1996 academic year from Hampshire. It was a good change of pace for me, because I'd gotten a little overworked and burnt out during my second year at Hampshire. I did a lot of work in the theater community in Portland, and did sone film projects and took classes at the Northwest Film Center in downtown Portland as well. I enjoyed living in Portland so much, I had a lot of mixed feelings about even returning back East, so I decided to re-apply to Reed as a transfer student and finish up my Bachelor's out west instead. Although I was finally accepted to Reed as a transfer student, it came with a couple of steep caveats: I'd have to have taken my second year all over again to fulfill certain Reed distribution requirements because they felt my first two years from Hampshire didn't transfer well (this is when I started to get annoyed) although I had classes with A's and B's from Amherst, SmIth & UMass/Amherst. Not to mention two years worth of glowing exceptional evaluations from my Hampshire coursework, as well as strong recommendations from Hampshire faculty. This is when I started to realize that Reed is a bit pretentious and full of itself as an academic institution, BUT, I wanted to continue to live and work in Portland, and loved my apartment in SE Portland (within commuting distance of Reed's campus; so I could've lived off-campus) and didn't want to give that up; since I'd felt my biggest complaint about Hampshire was the insularity of being forced to live on-campus for all four years (this is in fact, STILL a Hampshire requirement, exceptions are ONLY granted on a case-by-case basis if you meet certain conditions). Then, in the Winter of 1996, the financial aid award letters arrived from both Reed & Hampshire: Reed gave me the BARE minimum (worse than my financial aid package at Hampshire had been my first two years) and ALSO requiring I maintain at least one year of on-campus residency (thus losing my apartment) AND of course, take an extra year longer to get my degree. Hampshire, in contrast, upped my financial aid to nearly full tuition for my final two years, offered to help pay for a semester abroad for Field Study (I'd also just applied to a Theater Program in London for the Fall 1996 semester) & gave me a scholarship to help me pay for books and any associated expenses. Um, what would you all have done? Bye, Reed & Portland. Oh well. The saddest thing for me was that I had to give up my really cute Portland apartment. However, I was on Field Study in London (practically paying nothing to attend the British American Drama Academy) in the Fall of 1996 coming back from Oregon, and then back in Massachusetts at Hampshire by January of 1997 (and practically paying nothing to finish attending Hampshire). So, in the end, it was the right decIsion for me to make, AND I got my BA in time in four years time from Hampshire instead. Sometimes though I do engage in a bit of: "What If I'd gone to Reed.....?"

Reed used to be a school for brilliant independent thinkers. Now it's a refuge for anti-Semites and…read moretrans with some overlap. Posters offering tutoring. Low SAT scores. Professors leaving. Hard to recruit. It recently settled with the Department of Justice over its virulent anti-Semitism and then proceeded to ignore the settlement. Any Jewish student should think again about applying there and any Jewish alumni should think about donating. Any brilliant student should go elsewhere period. RIP Reed.

I don't blame them, they have to account for all hours and can't make exceptions. My CNA 2 class has been a different experience because of Covid. I had to miss two labs and it has been about 2 months and I haven't finished yet. I don't blame the school. I had to stay proactive and make sure that I checked in with the school each time a class started. DO NOT EXPECT THEM TO DO IT FOR YOU! From what others in class have mentioned, the office workers are very disorganized with their paperwork and many people have trouble with getting hold of them by phone and email. This has not been my experience. Suffice to say, I am hopefully finishing up soon with the help of the CTI office workers.

I had an unfortunate experience with communication and professionalism here. I was told I would…read morereceive a phone call regarding my issue, but instead I received an email. When I politely asked why the promised call did not happen, Telahna responded defensively and shifted the responsibility onto me for not checking my email frequently enough. What concerned me most was that instead of focusing on resolving the issue efficiently, the interaction turned into an argument about who was at fault. This made the process longer and felt unproductive. In a professional setting, I believe it's more important to focus on solutions and clear communication rather than defending missteps. I hope future customer interactions are handled in a more solution-oriented and professional manner.
