World College - Cleveland Institute Of Electronics
Threatens former students who already paid tuition fees

I originally signed up with World College (they are affliated with Cleveland Institute of Electronics) in late 2004. I did a little less than half of the assignments for the first corse and decided to withdraw from the school.

It wasn't what I was expecting and I thought it was a bit overpriced.in May I officially withdrew from World College. They sent me an acknowledgement and said that by June 21st I had to send the first part of the cancellation fee.

I sent the first part of the fee at the end of May. They cashed the check in the first week of June. I sent another check, to continue paying off the balance I owe in the second week of June. They cashed the check a few days later, in June.

Now it's June 26 and I receive a threatening letter from student services saying I never paid the first part of the fee that was due on June 21st. They claim they were turning my account over to a collection agency, even though I had already made 2 payments since my withdrawal.

I just sent them a certified letter with a copy of my bank statement showing the copy of the check sent to them and showing where they cashed the check. I can't wait for their response.

Avoid World College/Cleveland Institute of Electronics at all costs. If you withdraw from their program and pay everything in a timely matter, they will just send you threatening letters. I suppose they're angry with me because I withdrew from their program and now this is their "retaliation" by turning my account over to a collection agency.
