Itt Technical Institute Extortion Arnold, Missouri
I attended ITT for 4.5 years to earn my Bachelors of Science in the field of Criminal Justice. Now that I have graduated I am finding out that the degree is not acknowledged by several companies for anything other than an internship, which could be obtained without the degree. The school itself charged $75,000 or more and the career services only send jobs making $9.00 to $12.00 and hour, which will not pay back the massive loans. The higher paying careers in companies like the FBI, CIA, and the military do not see the degree as credible. I truly believe its extortion to charge someone this kind of money and receive less than minimum education with low standards. During my time at ITT the grades were inflated, I was not only told this by a few instructors who are no longer there because they would not conform, but it was shown clearly in those who did not do homework, did not go to class and still passed with a B or sometimes with an A. The attendance was also fabricated in some instances to keep up their state standards as they call it. Also the quality I and others received was not worth $75,000 plus interest. It was repeative, sometimes not topic specific, the courses were created not by what we needed to learn and be knowledgeable in but by what classes corporate could charge more for. The advanced classed were no different than their pre-requisites. I have contacted the school and loan company for financial help but they refuse to work with me, even though i can not obtain a entry level position with the degree. I am not by far the only one who is having this problem, and it is not degree specific.
