AIO Scammed Me With Misinformation and Convenient Ommition

Education & Science

I was checking out continuing education colleges as I wanted to enrich my mind and maybe be able to get into a different field of work one day, but I didn't have a lot of money. The woman from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh online division assured me that all my costs but a mere fraction would be taken care of by government loans.
This woman called me over and over and over and sorry to say, I was finally won over by sweet dreams of an affordable higher education.
I took a total of three classes. One of which was very good, but during the 2nd week of my fourth class I realized that I didn't have the time for 8 hours worth of homework so I called to say I was leaving the school. I was told that I couldn't because even though I was only in my second week I would be required to pay for the fourth class anyway. I told the advisor that there was no point in finishing a class if I was not doing well, and asked why I should have to pay for a class after only two weeks. I was given no sufficient answer.
After 3 finished classes and two weeks of another I owe Sallie Mae close to 7,000.00 dollars and I also owe The art institute of Pittsburgh over 4,000.00.
At no time was I informed how much I was going to owe the school itself. Courses were picked for me and no emails or phone calls ever elucidated me that my charges with the school itself were going into the thousands.
Yes, I was a fool for signing up for something that was too good to be true and am writing this in hopes that other people who aren't rich or well off don't make the same mistake I did.
The government allows scam private schools like these to thrive, especially in this economy with a lot of desperate people grasping at straws. If they didn't offer those loans to these thieves I would never have signed up. I knew I really couldn't afford it, but had no idea how the charges would rack up so quickly.
The art institute of pittsburgh is a scam that appeals to those with hopes and dreams which make them naive'. I have attended good colleges Like Visual Arts in NYC and never did I owe so much for only 3 clases.
