The cost for programs is a lot cheaper but the school has a bad reputation any where you go. It's not really worth saving that amount. Their medical programs are not excepted at major hospitals in area. Be sure the program is acredited before you throw your money away. The school is very dirty and their so called teachers are not always certified like they say they are. Phony school!!! Everyone seems nice at first but you find out they only want to make $ and no guarantee you will have a job. Most of their students don't end up qualifying for a job (that is more than 75%) So be very very careful what program you choose. I suggest you call facilities (depending on your program of interest) to see what they think of the school and if you will qualify for a job after you finish their program. You may save a few dollars here and there for the program but when you are finished you realize that your certificate is not valid and your $ used is not good enough for a job. I recommend you go elsewhere or you'll end up throwing your $ away!!

Pros: cheap program

Cons: not accredited / bad reputation/ teachers are not experienced
