Pennco Tech. Pennco Technical Institute ripoff lied to me, stole from me and wasted 2 yrs of my life, robbing me of my money and time and HOPE! Blackwood New Jersey
Carl Mancuso, Doug Johnson etc. are all liars and thiefs.
Please be warned that pennco tech is truly a ripoff.
For students of all ages, dont go to pennco tech, why, I'll Tell you what they did to me.
When I first walked into pennco tech. i had this funny feeling that something wasnt right with this school. Just by the way the sales reps for the school approached me.
When I met the teachers and staff of the shcool NO one seemed happy or polite, but I brushed all of that off, thinking everything with this school would be ok.
I was wrong, goin into pennco tech. that day was the worst descion I could have made.
My first Day at pennco tech. wasnt very bright. It was dark and miserable. No one greeted me happily, no one smiled, no one appreciated that I was attending there school.
One thing I found really weird, was that when I went to talk to the career guide in the school. I found that she was the only career guide in the shcool of over 600 students. I again thought, there is no way this woman can find jobs and great careers for all these students, that pennco tech so much as to promised me and the others.
I tell you NOW when I graduated I had NO CONFIDENCE in the pennco tech to find me a job, and NO CONFIDENCE in myself for I have made a horrible decision, going to pennco tech.
Now a year later after graduating, I am here to announce that I still have no career, no money, and no hope. The day i graduated was the last day I ever Heard From Pennco Tech.
What they did to me and others is illegal, playing with people hearts, minds, & souls, as well as stealing my time & money.
I say money because, I have no money . All my money I get from a cashier job at a super market goes straight to the student loans and went to all the books and supplies and charges I payed pennco tech for my false education. They flat out STOLE my money out of my pocket. Gave me great Dark dreams and lied visions, in a successful attempt to steal money.

Sara,
No one stole your money. The school is Legit which is why you were able to obtain federal student loans. As for one Student Career Advisor for over 600 students, wrong again. Her Job isn't to find jobs for First Term Students or second Term Students, but for Students in their final term getting rdy to graduate. Even then, it is not her job to FIND A JOB for anyone, but for her to find opportunities for you providing you gave her everything she needed to develop a Resume for you if you dont have one already. In reality she is probably only looking at about 60 students at any given time she is finding opportunities for. It is your job to make it through an interview and secure the job. More than likely you have no real life experiences like most other students (not saying that to be mean or rude, just the reality of it), so you had the same basic default resume every other student with you and before you have. So there is nothing to set you apart from the other students to be that one the employers are looking for. Also everyone in my building is always smiling, laughing, and enjoying each other. So I am not sure where you get that everyone is miserable. I find most people's statements about finding a job on here a little weird, as 50% of my class including myself already have employment opportunites making descent money when we graduate. So I think you should re-evaluate yourself and stop pointing the finger at the school. You should always look online to find out what jobs are in-demand and in what areas before you go ahead and jump into a career field that is already overmanned...

This poor girl is being charged as having received a poor education, therefore, she is lucky to have a job as a cashier. Your are absolutely right that she had a poor education...she got it at Pennco Tech. This is a school who will promise you the world. I know one of the admission reps, who in his own words said,"if they are breathing we will enroll them". They don't care if you qualify or have the aptitude for the course they are enrolling in. All they care about is getting your money. These admission reps are only salesmen looking to meet quotas and get their bonuses. If fact, each one makes over $70,000 by misleading people. Please if you want to further your education go to a community college. It will cost you less and you will have to find your own job. With Pennco Tech you will have to find your own job, too.

Painfully difficult to decipher your complaint which is essentially about a school that supposedly owes you a career. Your life is your own responsibility. Your school doesn't owe you a career any more than a jeweler owes people marriages.
This is obviously written by somebody with a very low educational level, not a graduate of any college. You should consider yourself fortunate to have any job, even as a cashier.
Disregard this complaint as a false posting
