TCI Technical Institute 3YEARS and still no Degree, but DEBT New York New York
I "graduated" TCI in 2012, Fall and I have yet to receive this degree I've taken out loans for. I'm not residing in South Dakota and every chance I get I go to TCI and ask about my degree. So far I've given my new address 14 times to them and counting. I've spoken to a plethera of people who are dealing with the same issues.
The first day I enrolled, I found it very odd that they had me already sitting down with finacial aid and getting me to take out as much many as possible from any family that I could get a signature from. They never actually teach you the skills you need to actually get the degree or any way to receive a job afterwards. I took the Billing and Coding examination and received a certification in the mail. Yet, I applied to earn credits towards that certification, no one would hire someone from TCI. I'm not even exaggerating here, that is what I was told once they saw my resume and saw I "graduated" from TCI AND could not produce a degree. This is insanity to me, because last time I went to the school the 12th time, I saw a lot of students in and out of there. I honestly wanted to yell out "Get away while you still can!" So no job, almost 40,000 in debt, from now even a 4 year school. No job, and living in NYC. I moved to Vermillion, SD for USD Fine Art, and I am still paying for TCI debt with NO Degree. This is the most outrageous scam I have every seen in my life.
The academic advisors are less than that, they're more like secretaries. I spent 3hours waiting for my "advisor" only to find out she had quit and every one was just seeing how long I would wait. Seriously.
