You have posted many comments here, many of which are simple facts hat do not imply or constitute a ripoff. I won't comment on all of them, but have supplied some commentary. I am in the proprietary school industry, but not affiliated with this school.
Title IV is a federal loan and grant program. It's VOLUNTRARY. You don't have to participate i it if you don't want to. CTC is accredited, and this is NOT just a title. Accreditation is a long process by which a school shows it has met standards. The agency that accredits CTC is recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education. Recognition is an official process similar to accreditation.
CTC is not a degree-granting school. Go to college if you want a degree. There is no problem with this. Many good schools don't offer degrees. They offer certificates. As for credit transfers, only the accepting school can accept credit, so CTC can't guarantee that.
YES!! Read your enrollment agreement before you sign it!! Is that a new concept? Must have been for you. It's pure common sense, and if you don't understand the refund policy, ASK!! If you don't like the refund policy, don't enroll.
You want a guaranteed job? Jeez, I wish I could have that guarantee. And actually, the accrediting agencies say you can't guarantee a job. How can a school guarantee you a job? My university sure as heck didn't guarantee me a job.
Most everything else here seems to be simple, and are all things you are informed about prior to signing up. If you don't like it, don't sign up. This is AMERICA! You have freedom of choice.
Finally, the closing "I speak the truth," is self-righteous garbage. Not a lie, but the import of the comment is meaningless.
