University of Phoenix Axia, Apollo Ripped Off by Apollo Portland Oregon
04:33:21 I am a 2013 graduate of uopx i am in dept 50,000 dollars with a munmum part-time job unrelated to my so called health care degree. Over Four years i was a model student only missing one day out of four years and 3.67 GPA. I also worked volunteer at a long term care facility for three years prior to graduating so i could have a track record of experiance to go along side my degree, so i was very active over four years.
My problem is i had no loans at the start of my education but now i owe 50,000 dollars in student loans, i am 57 years old and nobody would even give me a chance, they was like uopx? what is that degree we don't hire people from that college becouse, it is substandard and not worth the paper it was writen on.
So i went on putting applacations in every place, and even creating new applacation thinking maybe it was some thing i was doing wrong on the applacation. It did not help, then i talked to a gentalmen that told me sorry but we don't recognize that school, i said why they are an accredited school, he told me that acredited does not mean the school is exceptable gage for us to hire its graduates.
Since this all happened i thought i would step back and look at what was going on here, so i decided to get and insurance license to maybe create my own oppertunities. passed both state life and health but the only problem was i was not a salesmen. So that failed, and i had to abanden that idea.
Presently because i own all this money i had to do something to pay these loans back, but i could only find a part-time job making 24 hour a week minumum wage about 700.00 mouth encluding my social security check that i get on disability after working 22 years in the autobody trade that i can no longer perform. so i just feel i have been suverly ripped off by this big college with a degree that is not worth the paper it is writen on. This is my story and what i live with every day.
