ECPI College Of Technology (Virginia Beach, VA)
ECPI College of Technology

I attended ECPI back in 2003 while I was serving in the Navy.instead of doing the traditional in seat I did the online. I had a small child and life in the military isn't always the easiest when I was trying to go to school.

All I remember is that I got dropped because I supposedly didn't pay ECPI my portion of the tuition which came from my MGIB. I called and left messages upon messages and email upon email. It's always a busy tone that takes me right to the voicemail. So basically I took one of those handbook they gave us upon enrolling and wrote a nasty letter to the President of ECPI and gave him a piece of my mind. A week after I sent the letter out ECPI called me and I was admitted back into school.

Months after getting out of the military I stop attending but did not officially withdraw myself. So the bottom line is that when I first started they told me that the tuitions will be taken care of etc etc..

Six months later I recieved a bill in the mail from ECPI and it stated that I owed them $2000.00 for whatever I don't know. I called and all I got was a run around. So I didn't pay for it. This was back in 2004. After that they sent my account to collection through Williams & Fudge and many other collection company to try to get the money out of me.

I will not pay for it because I don't know what it's for. So with all their special add ons and interest and blah blah blah from the collection agency. I now officially owe them $4000.00 because of interest.

I still haven't paid for it. I don't have money or a 'fake' degree to show for and never recieved a clear explanation on why I owe the money. It gets better, a year before I enrolled (In-seat: Nights) my husband had already attended ECPI and was six months away from completing his degree but dropped out because our baby was born and we had to work and had no time for school. So ECPI sent him a bill for $ 24,000. So together we owe ECPI almost $30.000 with no degree to show for and aren't allowed to re-enroll until we pay off what we owe them.

I don't understand how it can be legal or ethical to pay for something you didn't even take. I understand if we had to pay for classes we already taken but for classes that we didn't take yet how can they expect us to pay for it?
