Virginia College Online Online School Ripoff Birmingham Alabama
I attended this school for two years and after finishing up with my last quarter I was informed I was receiving a refund check due. Several days after that Ib received a call from Financial Aid stating that I owed a large balance. After contacting the school to ask them about the balance they told me that they balance was from a previous quarter. I asked the financial officer why was I receiving a refund check if I owed a balance. I was told that they couldn't use my refund check to pay the balance from a previous quarter, they have to send me the refund check and then I send them the money back back to pay the balance. I've been having problems with Financial Aid with this school every since I've been attending it and I was a student at this school for two years and its always something different about how much money you owe and no one from the financial aid department can give you a clear answer on how they come up with the balance you owe. Now I 'm unable to receive my transcript or my Diploma fromb the school and I've finished and graduated with my Associates Degree. Its sad how this school rips off students. Its unclear what they do with your Federal Financial Aid.

THIS IS THE SAME SITUATION IN WHICH I FOUND MYSELF WHEN I WENT HERE AND WANTED TO BETTER MY LIFE.
UNABLE TO GET A STRAIGHT STORY FROM THE FINANCIAL AID CROOK AND WHEN THE ALLEGED SHYSTER WHO WAS ALLEGEDLY IN CHARGE OF THEIR PARALEGAL PROGRAM TOLD ME I WOULD NOT BE GETTING A PARALEGAL JOB WITHOUT A BACHELOR'S DEGREE (THEN WHY WERE THEY CLAIMING ALL OF THESE SUCCESSFULLY EMPLOYED PARALEGALS WHO HAD GRADUATED FROM THEIR COLLEGE?), I BECAME SUSPICIOUS.
YOU ARE TOLD LIES AND THEN WHEN YOU ASK A FEW QUESTIONS AND IT BECOMES SO OBVIOUS ---REAL OBVIOUS THAT THEY DO NOT RESPECT YOU OR THEY WOULDN'T LIE TO YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE AND REAL OBVIOUS THE ONLY THING ABOUT YOU THEY REALLY CARE ABOUT IS HOW MUCH MONEY THEY CAN STEAL FROM YOU.
THEY WOULD NOT GIVE ME A STRAIGHT ANSWER ON HOW MUCH MY TUITION WAS GOING TO BE EITHER. BUT I WAS ABLE TO CHECK THE FINANCIAL AID B****'S COMPUTER WHEN SHE LEFT THE ROOM AND FOUND OUT THAT THEY WERE GOING TO CHEAT ME OUT OF $80,000 OR MORE.
FOR THAT KIND OF MONEY, I CAN GO TO LAW SCHOOL.
WHERE DO THEY SPEND YOUR MONEY?
THE PRESIDENT OF OUR SCHOOL AND THE DEPARTMENTAL "CHAIRPEOPLE" ALL HAD VERY EXPENSIVE CLOTHES AND CARS AND THE RECEPTIONIST BEHIND THE DESK ATE OUT AT THE STEAK HOUSE EVERY DAY....WHERE DO YOU THINK IT GOES?
THEY DIDN'T EVEN HAVE TO BUILD A CAMPUS. THEY JUST MOVED IN THE HALL WHERE THE GUN SHOWS USED TO BE HELD HERE. I FEEL SORRY FOR THE POOR AND IGNORANT AND MISINFORMED PEOPLE WHO THINK ATTENDING HERE WILL GIVE THEM AN EDGE IN EMPLOYMENT WHEN THERE ARE PEOPLE WITH MASTER DEGREES AND BACHELOR DEGREES FROM REAL UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES WHO ARE UNEMPLOYED AND UNEMPLOYABLE IN THIS JOB MARKET.
BEWARE OF THESE FOR PROFIT TRADE SCHOOLS! ESPECIALLY THE ONES ONLINE!
THEY WILL RIP YOU OFF.

If you are indeed representative of this school's graduates, they have more problems than just the Financial Aid Dept. Your spelling and syntax are deplorable !!! You write more like a 5th grader than someone with an Associate's degree. I STRONGLY suggest that you either go back there, or to your local community college and take the English grammar courses you apparently slept through during primary and secondary schooling. I don't know what you studied at this college, but you WON'T get far in your chosen professional without the English skills you lack.
