Honestly, I do not even know how to being explaining the atrocity which is J&W. 

This school has ruined my life.  (well, I ruined my life by choosing to attend this school) 45,000 in the hole and only a AS in pastry arts to show for it. 

Why I bought their line “lifetime job placement” during the initial tour, I will never know.  Agh, and I was already a skilled cake decorator.  I knew the job market and let reality escape me with J&W dreams/lies.  THERE IS NO MONEY IN THIS FIELD, unless of course you want to spend every waking minute of the next thirty years devoted to pastry and cut throat business practices.  Most of the jobs in this niche are low paying without benefits.  So, for me, it's kinda hard to give my life to something that isn't going to pan out within a reasonable amount of time.

Remember people, you're 1 in a million.  How many of these jobs are there really?  ...take a hard look at our economy.  With this fiscal knowledge you should stick with something safe (a broad major) especially when spending this type of money. 

A career school should be more informative about what they are offering and where it will lead.

Ok back to J&W (providence) the campus is a dump, there's a very high crime rate locally, and they seem to let anyone in that can manage to obtain a loan.

I'm not even going to start with the student population, other reviews here already covered the mostly retarded body of students.(pff, and I love to party) but these assholes were ending up in the hospital every week.

NOT RECOMMENDED for the poor folk looking to earn a useful reasonably priced degree.
