I am in the process of getting a lawyer and I have sent several letters to the Attorney General and State Senators for each state where Kaplan has an office. I also filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Bureau of Consumer Protection and I will continue to file complaints until some government agency listens. I am in the process of starting a petition and will update this site once I have everything in place. For those who believe the people on this site should have done better research or Kaplan wasn't being misleading. I did all the research and made the phone calls and Kaplan and the Stafford Loan did not keep their records up to date for a full year. I was told all the financial aid I had received for 2007 from Stafford Loan had to be refunded and Kaplan stated they were not notified until the end of 2007 by Stafford. I am still feeling OUTRAGED about this situation. Kaplan refuses to send me anything in writing. I have made several requests and for 6 months I have not received ONE statement explaining how Kaplan came to this amount.

Kaplan University is NOT a school, it is a BUSINESS. Welcome to for-profit online "education." I am sorry you got suckered into paying thousands for nothing but heartache. You and other students do not DESERVE this bull. If you do need to earn your degree online, look into not-for profit schools that offer some programs online, such as Drexel University, DePaul University, and Marshall University. What degree do you want to pursue? Major? I am sure I can find a good online program from an ACTUAL school, not a business posing as a school.
