Pioneer Pacific College
What a Joke of a "College"

I am currently getting ready to start my final term with this college, and I use this term loosely. I enrolled in the Healthcare Admin. Program, what a mistake. If I hade known what this school was going to be like from day one I NEVER would have enrolled. We were told on day one that we were the first ones to ever take this course from this college so we were the ginii pigs. That should have been my first sign that things were not going to go well.

But I had never been to college, and I had graduated High School almost 10 years ago so I didn't know how things had changed. I really wanted to get a job in the Healthcare field so I stuck it out. I recieved really good grades my first & second term.By my third term we started getting teachers that basicly took the job for the money. They didn't really want to give you any information that would help you prepare for a test or exame, because and I quote "Takes up to much of my time", so we had to figure out what might be on the exames on our own.

The real kicker is when a student refused to due a paper that was assigned, but then when she found out that she failed the class the teacher let her turn it in the following term. Well that same term she recieved a B in our Billing II class that she only did 2 assignments in but yet the teacher had her marked down for all of them. Me and another student that had gotten almost straight A's the entire time she was there got C 's in the class. When asked why our "attendence" was not taken into account they said it didn't count in non medical classes, so basicly only the MOA students get that perk. Well the teachere said on the first day of class that it would help our grade if we were on the boarder of getting a better grade. 3 points is pretty much on the boarder don't you think? Well Jody didn't seem to think so and wouldn't go to bat for either of us on our grade.

The helping you find a job after you graduate is also a big joke! They find out that a student get's a job with no help from them and they want you to be in their success book. I will never inform that school that I have gotten a job, because they do not help and they do not deserve the credit for my hard work.

I am not going to rock the boat while I am still in this place but once I get my Degree in October I will be sending the school a bill for my time waisted. I encourge other students to do the same. I was told by Heather when I signed up that once I was done with my Degree I could get a job with a start out pay of anywhere between $12-$15 an hour. Well if that's what they think I'm worth that's what they will be paying me for the waist of my time in classes like, General Office Procedures, no offense to my teacher because she is great, Intro to the Internet, thanks I think I know how to look on the internet, a Filing class that was a joke, but again the teacher is great, Algebra, something that I highly dout I will use later in my field, professional development, I wouldn't use that resume they made me do if my life depended on it, Business & Management, I'm not sure what we were suppose to learn there because the teacher was a flake, this list goes on but I have tried to block out some of them. The school will get a bill for all of this and more, but once I have my expense piece of paper. I will also be writing to the Better Business Bureau as soon as I am done.

I will gladly help Alicia and Velda with any actions they would like to take up against this school. Alicia knows how to get a hold of me Velda.
