This report is only the tip of the iceberg, and I would highly suggest you do extensive research prior to signing any forms.

All of these reports cant lie. Its illegal to deceive potential students during enrollment, unless the TRUTH is damaging. One year of state college is roughly as beneficial following college than any education from a CEC school, and it would cost you $50,000 less. So is CEC schools beneficial to your future?
PLEASE, DO YOUR RESEARCH.
