Reviews and Complaints
A Year Wasted & Further In Dept!
YOU ARE WARNED NOT TO ATTEND ITT!
I'm also in the process of trying to recoup the over 40K I'm out because of ITT Tech. I attended the San Diego campus for less than a year, after the first few months I knew there was a problem.
The Teachers knew nothing about the subjects we we're signed up for, one of my Teachers told our class to go home early and not to worry just to make sure we put our names on the sign up sheet. Yea I learned a lot in that class. My Auto Cad Teacher asked us to register with "Harmony.com" and then write about our experience. WHAT?
What did that have to do with Auto Cad!? I'm over 40K in debt because of ITT Tech and have NO degree to show for it. I spent 40K on a few books.. Thanks ITT !
I don't understand how ITT can continue to receive government grants and funding for students!
It seems fraudulent to me.
:( :( :(
ITT TECH droped from course sentbill immediately to collectors
Decided to post some about my experience with ITT. First off ITT is a technical institute not a university so your culture at the school is going to be different. I had professors who work in the field and are really good at there jobs. When they teach, they focus on the core material. This happens when you do get a good professor, however when you find a Itt tech that is trying to compete with a university, you may find yourself getting into an Itt that teaches by the rules of the curriculum, which I was not a fan of. Make sure you do your homework when picking a school. Itt is accredited by a different agency then most universities, so this makes it harder to transfer credits to that fancy university name you want to go to later. Once again I go back to my comment about university versus institute. One disadvantage I don't like is that the schools financial aid gives more money to the lower income. Which means you have middle income that is 50/50 on going to the school to pay 80k, more lower income getting away with sitting in the class and not doing nothing because they can get a paper and barely pass or learn anything, and the higher income who can afford to pay it off for a piece of paper. :upset
So with that being said, what do you do? It all depends on what you want to do and your situation. I had the experience and knowledge of a couple certifications, but because I am just now finding out after I graduated that I have OCD, I could not pass my certifations because I did not have enough time to take them. So I would get interviews that would require me to have a bachelors degree and they would not hire me cause I didn't have the paper. I even had a job offer for 100k and I was barley done my associates. So keep in mind, if you struggle with college, try an institute that can give you a degree, but make sure you learn and gain expience so you can talk the walk because no one is going to hire you with good pay unless you really know what your doing.
I am just going to note here that I didn't have much luck with Itt career services, but I did get interviews with places. I am very picky about where and who I want to work for. The job I have now.... I applied for once with itt's help and never got a call. Then a few months later the job was posted again and Itt told me about it. Itt called the company and talked to the hr person and put in a really good word for me because I was head of my class. Then I got the interview and the rest played out the way I made it.
Another thing to keep in mind, the degree programs Itt offers is well rounded. I actually got an interview with a government contractor, one of the best in the nation because I had so much well rounded knowledge. They were impressed that I knew so much Linux, windows, Cisco, cyber security, electronics (this was a hobbie of mine), VMware, VoIP, and more. I actually was a last minute call for the position and one of the last they interviewed, and they told me I was one of the best well rounded people they interviewed. So keep in mind how that Itt degree is going to help you be more well rounded for a company.
Hope this helps some, and by the way I am typing this on the iPad and to lazy to review my grammar and spelling. Just read it like I spoke it. Lol.
ITT Technical Institute failed !
Everywhere the same.
May I ask you a question...YOU SAY THAT YOU GO TO ITT IN MICHIGAN!!! How can that be when ITT Tech closed everyone of their Campuses NATIONWIDE back in September.
Yes i'm currently in their program and have six more months to finish the only reason why I am biting the bullet and going through with the program is because I've came this far this is a unprofessional and in unorganized school do not come to the school this is nothing but a urban alternative high school
Itt tech let me pay $40,000 to do nothing in life
The director is usually a recruiter who was promoted. All he/she cares about is money.
The school will do whatever it takes to ensure a student does not drop. That would be lost revenue.

ITT Tech is all about making profits, not quality graduates
ITT Tech is not worth paying thousands of dollars for, not worth it!!

While attending I-TITY-TECH, I sure enjoyed all the ignorant teachers
Ahh! The 92% of our lower class /GED recipients, it is your own ignorance for watching tv then actually studying maybe you should of studied the accredidation of ITT.
Go ahead and file lawsuits, waste money on legal fees to fall deeper in debt!
Granted you have a 2yrpromising degree on a paper that was recycled in mexico lol! The law is going to tell you the same thing, " no one made you go."
*than
Good job though, I'm sure you passed high school. Wait "2yrpromising" and "mexico" are incorrect too. I guess you're still in junior high?
Making people think they can have no life without college is a huge money making scam in this country and guess who benefits most?? THIS CROOKED COUNTRY THATS WHO.So many people get out of highschool and go to college for years and waste 10's of thousands of dollars often on "student loans" so you basically have a degree for a job making example $30.00 per hour but you are no better off than the person making $15.00 because you will be paying off your "student loan" till your 45 years old.The vast amount of jobs in this country are given according to WHO YOU KNOW NOT WHAT YOU KNOW and that is one of the big reasons why this is a country of IDIOTS in jobs that they have no business being in.The only jobs you can go to college and basically have a guaranteed job and future are in the medical fields.
Does any one know if there any law suits curently against ITT Tech? I wanna join big time!!!
lol @ your debt.! ME TOO
;P
The FED Govt. had done an "investigation" at ITT. Funny, because it's who they work for in the first place. LOL
Do not let ITT make you commit suicide, move on to another school & get a job, or else pay what you can + move on.
I meant your DEPT, how embarrassing...
sorry about you DEPT
