I'm about to graduate from ITT Tech with a BS in Electronics Engineering. So, here is how I rate it.

The Financial Aid department is top notch. They do all the work for you, and they got me many grants that totaled about $17,000 for me, over 4 years.

The Student Representatives are very poor. I met with mine the month I started school there, and never again. He quit, I got another one that I met a few times and he checked up on me. He quit. I don't know who my rep has been for the past two years.

The Career Services department are fairly good. They assisted me in getting many interviews, several job offers. I'm currently in a job that accepted my ITT Associates degree, and I'm making ~$20/hr. They also offer free job search help for life once you graduate with any degree.

The full time instructors that they hire seem to be great! I had two with Masters, and one with a Doctorates degree. It is readily apparent they want you to succeed because they will invest a lot of time and effort into you to help you out. Unfortunately, they're cutting these down and hiring adjuncts.

The adjunct instructors are hit and miss. I've had some that are really good and want you to succeed like the full time instructors. I've had others that you have to question why they are teachers because they seem to be worthless.

The school administration seems to be ok. Everytime I've asked for something from them, I've gotten the help I needed. However, they don't seem to want to go out of their way to look for what you need. The program chairs are the exception. They seem to be very good natured, and willing to go the extra mile for you.

For school atmosphere, it's cheerful overall. They spend some on free snacks and parties for the student body.

However, there is some lacking. I didn't learn basic skills like soldering, and how to read some devices - spectrum analyzer, network analyzer, etc. I feel these are important to making it in the field, and that is where I had to learn them. School did not teach them to me.

My advice for anyone wanting to go there?

Take your gen ed classes at a community college. Then transfer those credits in. Each year my credit cost went up. From $385/hr when I started, to $465/hr when I ended. Don't get one of the offered laptops. You can get twice the laptop for half the price in a good store. When you graduate, you'll have a lot of alumni in the field that are willing to help a fellow ITT graduate out. I know, I've benefited from the connections.
