I would not recommend spencerian to anyone. If you are considering going there run as fast as you can. I met with an admission officer (Paula) and explained to her I am interested in the MLT program as a starting point and was planning on continuing my education to become a pathologist my question was very clear and repeated several time "will my credits and/or my degree transfer to other schools?" Her answer of course was yes. Half way into my program I learned from other students that credits and/or degree will NOT transfer to most colleges!! If I wanted to get my BS, MS, or PhD I would have to start all over again. I was also advised by Paula to get in the MLT certificate program and then bridge over to the associate in MLT program and insisted that it would same thing. She neglected to state the fact that I would have to take 4 or so classes and do 2 quarters of clinicals that will not count toward my associate. The teachers there are very full of themselves and treat you like crap and make you feel like they are better than you but, they are knowledgeable of the material they teach with the exception of Ms Franke(the department co director's cosine) she reads the power point slides word for word with 90% of what she reads is mispronounced. She is also the rudest person I have EVER met in my life. Ms Staton and Mrs Feldkamp were very knowledgeable teachers but extremely moody and rude at times and will bring whatever mood they have at home/work with them to class!! And God forbid you get sick or have a family emergency and miss class time, the teachers will drop you from class even if it was the last day of class! I hated every minute of spencerian but I did manage to graduate with a high GPA. Bottom line DO NOT attend spencerian you can get a much better education els where such as jcc or UofL with a lot less cost. Go to a school that cares about education not profit.
