Granted, the hustle and bustle of the ECPI curriculum is not for everyone. If you take your studies seriously, the pace is rather fast and furious. It is very easy to get low or mediocre grades. You just cannot miss class days in what is already a very truncated schedule. Personally, I find that most of my difficulty studying at ECPI seems to stem from the lack of challenge. I have been in the military several years, studying and working in a field which I have decided to pursue my major in. This will be my second Bachelors degree, and so far the most boring. I do not believe this to be a fault of the school or staff. I would recommend to all who would consider going to ECPI to take a long look at themselves. The courses are easy for some and harder for others. This is a non-traditional school in every sense and calls for a good amount of personal commitment and fortitude. "Zero to bachelors in two and a half years." - A true statement, but you will sure feel like it was four years by the end of it. University Resource Use: A, Useful Schoolwork: C+ Have a Question?

I am presently a Field Service Engineer with a major equipment manufacturer. ECPI is what you make of it. No good excuse for anything lower than an A average. Instructors are very good, motivated and go above and beyond to help anyone who gives effort in spite of the Provost. The coursework should be more intense, but alot of the students wouldn't pass at most colleges. This is a for profit operation and it quickly shows. You probably will not fail as long as the tuition checks don't bounce. If you put in the effort this can be a productive endevor. I ended up with my first job out of ECPI at a great company. My 20 years of prior experience in the aviation industry was more of a help than what I learned at ECPI. It showed my employer I was commited to make a change and I acquired some new skills to grow. The Povost at the Charlotte campus was more of an obstacle than helpful. An example of this was prior to my last term. One class I needed to complete wasn't offered. All I got was an e-mail saying the course wouldn't be offered for several terms....just come back in 3 or 4 months and take that one course. No mention of alternatives or substitute courses. Just tough luck. One of the advisors told me about substituting courses and I graduated on time. Several students had there time there extended for many months waiting on courses. The Provost is a poor excuse for an educator but tight with the budget, which the owners like. One other note is, if your planning on attending another school after ECPI verify transferablity of credits. Overall, an OK school, great instructors, 50% of students are serious, the other 50%, I'm not sure why they were there. The school is what you make of it, build your resume. Quite expensive for the quality. Preparedness: C-, Reputation: F Have a Question? Your Response/Question:     To be informed when someone replies to your comment.
