Thread regarding SAE Institute (formerly the School of Audio Engineering) layoffs

New Rating Plan for Colleges!!!

New way to rate colleges for next school year going out. You either are "good", "bad", or "somewhere inbetween". I wonder where SAE at this point would fall.

This rating system is obviously not completely vetted out. There's no way they can put colleges into three categories. Hell, the USNews that comes out yearly has a 100pt system. They should create a system like that for our type of schools.

No one ever cares about career services. They always say they do, and that that's the reason why people come to school. But then they do the opposite of supporting it. Like laying off our leader who showed more support than any other corporate person. And even got leads and placements.

I guess we will find out soon! lol The question is "Do the Aussies even understand what this law is"? Do they realize how important career services is? Do they realize that as fast as we got Title 4 we can lose Title 4 without a strong Career Services person(s)? I guess time will tell

I'd say that we are "in between".

"Assess each college on accessibility to lower-income students, affordability, students’ academic progress, and how well the students fare in finding good jobs and paying off student loans" Accessibility to lower-income students - We just upped the cost. Affordability - We just upped the cost. SAP - We are still teeter-tottering on what SAE's SAP policy is and we just got rid of the main Compliance person who had the most experience (though the policy may not be popular, we at least had someone to work with). Finding good jobs - That's one of our primary initiatives, but we just let go the only group level career services person who actually worked, communicated and put things in place. Paying off Loans - the campuses that had already gone into repayment have high default rates and no one at the group level has communicated anything about plans to address that.
