I loved going to ctc in Killeen Texas up until this past semester They suspended my financial aid right before it was time for me to start nursing school. The bookstore never orders enough books for the number of students for their classes and in this case the professor usually will place the first few chapters online until the school gets more books. My professor did not do this so for my 12 week class that I was taking without a book, i started failing then finally 3 weeks into class that is when the school orderd more books. My professor did not push back the dates for the midterm nor the final so I was forced to just throw myself in to study for an exam in two days in which i ended up failing. for this one class that i failed i lost my financial aid.

I selected CTC as an out of state, non resident online/distance learning student because I am a veteran and CTC is a Servicemen's Opportunity College (SOC). They lost my DD 214, and VA certification letters. Rarely was able to speak to an actual person on the phone. The website was fragmented and not very intuitive. I decided to withdraw 1 day into the term and try a local school and had the complete opposite experience. I felt taken advantage of. I requested a full refund of my $900 plus fees and tuition but received only $672. They dropped the ball with my paperwork, were unresponsive and would run from this institution, especially if you are a distance learner.

There are some teachers that are good and some that are bad. I suggest using Rate my teacher . com if you are unsure of how a teacher might be before you sign up for classes. The classes are easy if you are not lazy. My complaint is mainly concerned with the financial aid department and the disbursement of funding. Although the website suggests a time when you may receive your left over funds you never really know when they are coming. My treatment there has been rude and uncaring. I am not a new student. Every time I call or email I get conflicting responses. The employees don't listen! I don't care if the college is holding funds to gain interest! I need my funds or I may not be able to attend the classes I paid for out of my own loans I will have to pay back! This whole situation is disheartening and the laws for disbursements need to change so that no more schools can slip through loops holes!
