I attended this college thinking that I would have a good job in the field that I went to school for as I was told this from the very beginning well it turns out that I don't like many other students that I know. I had applied for student grant money received it and still had to get loans not knowing that they are private loans and also that they are all variable loans, also I had to pay an extra $100/month and no one ever told me what that extra $100 was for and if you didn't pay it you couldn't attend this school.Also every student was taking different courses then what you were taking even if going for business.Some of the teachers just did class work and passed you with an A, also some teachers just passed you with an A just for showing up to class. the classes were not challenging, it felt like I was in high-school again. This school is a rip-off. When taking exams you could use your textbook to take an exam.

Anything marked with a "C" is irrelevant, as I attended classes online. Teachers are ignorant of their fields, use only copy-pasted information, and offer no help whatsoever. If you disagree with a point they have made, or think a question was incorrectly marked, they simply tell you that you are WRONG, and refuse to discuss it further. Continuously being switched between classes, I was harassed non-stop for not turning in half a semester's worth of work for a class that I was placed into that day. I recently received an e-mail notifying me that I was being thrown out for my grades. They work only with private loan companies, so I'll be telling the creditors that I'm dead, and not to call back. Do not go to ECPI, they are frauds. They are simply out to take money from you.

I graduated in 2010 with a BSEET degree. This degree is why I have a very good job. If you're looking for something simple and easy, like your local community college, then ECPI is not for you. This school is designed for people willing to work long hard hours for what they want. The classes are fast and furious and that frustrates some people. If you're not willing to give up every night and weekend to do school work in order to keep a good GPA this school is not for you. The curriculum is difficult and challenging, and the instructors expect you to work... a lot. It's a great school, but only if you're willing to work very hard to succeed.
Education Quality: A, Social Life: C
