Redstone College

Major: Aerospace Engineering (This Major's Salary over time)
I always had a passion in aviation and thought it would be the best place to learn how to work on aircraft. They sold the school to me as if it was number one in the country, however I have no prior a&p schooling experience and have nothing to compare it to first hand but there is no way this is the best one out there. Hands down, I would have rather went to Spartan or Embry Riddle. Something with a name behind it. Teachers are all out of work mechanics who either quit, were fired, or laid off. Half of the newer teachers just graduated from the "college" and don't have the "field experience" they tell you their instructors have. everything is busy work. We take notes every day. They tell you this school is hands on…Hands on your pen and paper maybe. Nothing mechanically works in the hangars. All the planes are gutted and haven't flown in decades. Kids are rude at this school. Half of them have a criminal record and the school accepts anyone as long as you are able to apply for a school loan. The office administration has the highest turnover i've ever seen. Every week there is someone new in there. KIds drink and smoke weed in the parking lots during lunch. If you are going to try to get a solid "college" experience or even plan on learning something…GO ELSEWHERE!!! Overpriced and overrated. THIS SCHOOL SUCKS
