Major: Accounting (This Major's Salary over time)
This College was a terrible choice for me. The degree was terribly expensive and has gotten me no where. Upon enrollment the estimated tuition was 19,000 and by the time I received my degree it came to be almost 30,000 that I paid them in full financial aid and loans. I didn't see a penny of what was left over after everything was paid. They always came up with an excuse of why the leftover money couldn't be given back to me. They took out over 6,000 of loans that I am still paying back 6 years later. They also set up the accounts for financial aid and loans themselves and had my account in the dean of students name to do what they wanted with my finances for school. I had to get my pin numbers changed because it was illegal for them to do come to find out later. I received "help" for career placement and they sent me to Manpower which is a total joke. What they neglected to tell me was that I needed a Bachelors degree to get an entry level position in the accounting field. So after all of the time, energy and money spent on getting this worthless degree I find that I have to go back to college anyways. If known beforehand I would have gone to Elmira College. That is a better choice.
