Thread regarding Corinthian Colleges Inc. layoffs

Student Appreciation aka more fuel for the False Claims fire?

From http://www.consumeraffairs.com/education/everest.html (Sept 2014)

"Everest "University" is a total scam. I graduated with my Associate's degree in 2011. Still no job in that field. Instead, I am working in a gift shop. None of the credits transfer. I have over 30k in student loans that I will never be able to pay off. I seriously wish I never went there. I owe so much money, and my degree means nothing. Thanks for ruining my life."

LOL @341 I agree that students are adults and able to reproduce but hey, if they have never been able to read and are financially illiterate, it is fair to say that CCi has used "caveat emptor" in a predatory way. Its not right, but they saw the goose that laid the golden egg. Its a teeming population that dominates the consumer economy and will continue to do so as long as all that "free money" is available!

This is what happens when a subprime student fails to research a college before enrolling. Guess no one ever told them" buyer beware" They ARE adults, and know better. Be responsible for your laziness in not doing your due diligence in researching a school, and quit blaming everyone for your mistake. Cry me a river!

295- When I started with Everest, the reviews were generally favorable.

If any potential student was so clueless as to believe the transparent lies being told by the sales staff, the student got what he or she deserved. Anyone with sense has always known that CCI is just pretend college.

"you need to take responsibility for your own bad decisions. You have nobody to blame but yourself." This is ridiculous. Should CCI take responsibility and blame for the things they've done? Apparently not, I guess. Yea, lie to students and manipulate them then blame the students for being fooled. That kind of indifference to the repercussions of our behavior and business practices is exactly why we'll be out of business by the end of the year. No respectable business treats customers that way. "Don't like the product? Well, f*&% you! It's you fault for trusting us."

OP maybe it's your attitude or your face. Get a make over.

Those websites don't give a true reflection, since people who are happy are less likely to write a positive review. Angry reviews will always outnumber them.

Agreed, something is wrong with this person if they can not find a job in this market. Take responsibility and stop blaming everyone else.

91% of the 246 reviews are either one or two star.

If the OP is an actual graduate, you need to take responsibility for your own bad decisions. You have nobody to blame but yourself. If you were foolish and gullible enough to enroll at Everest, you ended up with what you deserved, and you probably would have been a failure at a real college anyway.
