Complaint Review: Westwood College Woodridge Illinois - Woodridge Illinois

I may have misread your post, Amy, but did you say you attended part time during your last semester? And you recieved financial aid? If so...you MUST contact the Department of Education. If ANY of that aid for that semester was federal (including federal grants or loans) it must be returned immediatly. This is often a scam by second rate colleges to get extra money. They claim you are full time to get the financial aid, and when DOE finds out you weren't, you're stuck footing the bill back to DOE. I would suggest you contact the Dept of Edu and tell them everything and see if they can help. Worst case scenario, the DOE makes the college pay them back and the college claims you owe, which you wont. Good luck.

I agree with all of your statements...The admissions reps are salespeople meeting quotas...and other than meeting sales goals, Westwood College could care less about providing a quality education. For those of you who are reaching out for help...there is more information on the most popular web networking forum. Profile name is FIGHT WESTWOOD. Best Wishes.

There are more than a handful of students around the Chicago Area campuses who want to know more information on the lawsuit. Some students at the Dupage campus and other Chicago campuses are already preparing to write letters to the Attorney General of Illinois and maybe even the federal level. Its good that people are FINALLYYYY waking up and doing something. The more people that get involved, the more that will get done. Links, any kind of info will be helpful. Westwood is trying there best to keep this out the public eye.

Having a hard time finding information regarding the Alta Colleges lawsuit re: "deceitful trade practices." If any one is aware of any links on line please help me find them. It is important for me to find information regarding lawsuits or class actions suits against Alta Colleges (Westwood College). Thanks.
