Carrington College

Apply here at your own risk. I haven't started yet, but I do not want to attend this school.

The lady who was helping me rushed me into signing paperwork and told me I could cancel within 14 days of the start of the class.meaning i would have to pay fees even if I didnt do any of the program.
The program itself costs $15k, others even more.

I wish I took all this rush to sign me up as a HUGE red flag.

Carrington College is a great college to earn a Medical Certification I really enjoyed studying here.

I’m glad to see my comment was somehow deleted but let me happily say again that they are the worst at communicating to their students and do not relay correct information regarding re-entry, all they care about is money and that’s all their students are to them, just numbers.

Some staff, NOT ALL were extremely helpful and good professors. Staffing was like a rotating door. We would start with a professor, and midway through they would quit. We didn’t have a dean for the majority of our program but when we did at the end, it was just ok.
The program. It honestly felt like they did not care since Carrington got my $ already. (If you pass you pass, if not.oh well)
The standards are high, as should they be BUT resources, directions, and guidance are little to none. For example, the exams, midterms and finals are not based on the weekly 8-12 ch readings listed on the syllabus, but from another book, if there is even a book available! Definitely a self taught program. When exam scores were not up to par according to the professor, the students are blamed for not utilizing the given resources (that are not given).
Completely unorganized and faculty does not communicate to each other and to students.
Success is a must for nursing but it is much much much more difficult if the professors and staff cannot or will not advocate for the students.

I’m in the veterinary technician program and I love the school with all my heart. My teachers always go the extra mile to provide emotional and educational support. The new dean is one of the most caring and respectful men I’ve ever spoke to! He cares about the students needs and is actively trying to improve the schools facilities indoor and outdoor. Financial aid can sometimes be tricky or uncommunicative but nothing that can’t be worked out. I would recommend Carrington college to anyone who knows what they want to do and want to do it fast.

Here’s just like a car dealership! You have to leave the dealership with a car! Nonprofessional employees, you ask one thing and they answer other thing, not recommended at all!

I love going to school here, the medical assisting program is great & the instructors are wonderful:) Its a perfect hands-on environment & very fulfilling, I always look forward to going to class.

This is in regards to finance. I am a graduated student with a credit on my account. I have talked to the department and sent many emails to receive my credit. This has been an issue since February 2018, it is now June 2018. The department has ignored all of my attempts to fix this. We are talking a dollar amount in the thousands that they will not give to me! Or even respond to my numerous requests for a simple reply. Very dissapointed, there is zero support for students.

They just want your money they dont help the students and are quick to make you retake a class even if you don't have to

Hey guys I’m thinking to study in this college as a surgery assistant so do I need a certificate or a diploma? ! Which is better? ! And if u study this part please Can u tell me your experience? !

The teachers are great, the programs are great as well but as far as other staff UNPROFESSIONAL. I do not recommend anyone to go here. My experience made me decide that I will not be going back to school for my bachelors degree. I've had enough of school after this.

Very upsetting with this college here in Sacramento. I called to get info and had an adviser assigned to me. Spoke with the adviser "Kandice" regarding VN bridge to RN program. Obtained all the requirements that i need, specially had a hard time getting my transcript from my VN school in Lynwood, Ca. Anyways, the adviser that i was assigned to was very hard to communicate with.
First, she had me wait for more than 4hours after she told me she was going to call me back in 15 minutes.
Second, she asked my about my info when i already gave them to her and reminded her that she had them and her reply was "oh just kidding". She also told me that she will notify me regarding "orientation" the next day, but had me wait till next week, if i never called her, she would have not scheduled me for orientation. Now i received email from her asking for my birthday and social security because my account was "locked" in the system? And Finally received an email, after weeks or more than a month of going through difficulties communicating with her and going through schedule changes at my work and signing all paperworks with financial aid and with her, notifying me that its unfortunate they can't enroll me because my VN transcript is more like "an adult class" type of program for me to get enroll in their pre reqs.and she even said "does it make sense? "

I've heard a lot of bad reviews from this college in Sacramento, but i still tried getting in here, and unfortunately they can't help me and even gave me the adviser i had.

I attended carrington college sacramento campus for their MA program, I loved it. The teachers were always willing to help and the support within the libary was useful. They want you to succeed and they want to make sure you pass with not only a certificate but a clear understanding beyond the basics standards of being a MA. Yes, their expensive but you get what you pay for ;)

The worst school I attended. They were quick to take your money, as soon as you needed help with your school work they turn their backs. The school is a joke.

Horrible school looking to take advantage of you. The financial aid department is extremely disrespectful. My chemistry teacher was pretty awesome and taught a good class. I would not recommend this school to anyone.

I hear everyone talkin about their bad experiences the only bad one I had was they kept switching teachers due to everyone stepping on each other's toe they aren't supposed to give you a job they give you oppertunties for jobs it it you job to sell your self I am now in a four year college 62 of my credits transferred with me so obviously they are doing something right!

The teachers are so great at this school. But the staff and the way this school works is totally disappointing. I am a graduated student and found my own dental job. I have loans like crazy, said I didn't qualify for anything because of course they ran off my parents income and I'm a 23 year old. But middle class gets screwed over anyways. And for those of you who think you will graduate with your cap and gown on they only do graduation once a year. Good luck!

This school is horrible, any for profit school that spams online advertising isn't worth attending.
