This is the first time that I have run across this page so I thought I would leave my opinion. My teacher was actually a very good teacher. She had high expectations of her student and she was a very particular grader. My problems started when It was time to interact with the career services department. I found out that the way they "help" you get a job is by helping you make sure your resume looks professional enough. A few months after I had graduated they had a job fair with some big name medical groups that I was not able to attend. When I asked my counselor for the names of the groups involved she said " Well, they are actually extern sites so it really would not be worth it" I could not believe she had said that. What I was hearing was that they were having this huge "job" fair that would only benefit the providers involved get free help for a 3 month period from all of their students that were completing their courses. I should have know better, I had attended a medical secretary course in 1991 that was just as bad where placement was concerned. They offered life time placement but when I needed help finding another job they kept giving me the run around until I finally gave up. It is pretty sad that these schools offer something that they are not able to provide. People go into their courses excited and hopeful only to be disappointed in the end.

Let me say this when checking out these schools you must do your research, in my experience Carrington is a great school, it is nationally accredited with CAAHEP and that is a big plus. make sure when checking out schools in medical they are accredited with CAAHEP, now there is no point in getting upset if the school does not find you a job. all schools offer the same options they do have career placement but that does not mean they will find you a job.....When doing your research make sure the site that you are interning for is hiring, because if you do a well enough job your possibilities are great.

Went to MA program. Learned a lot Of skills that my peers from other vocational schools did NOT learn. Career services was a huge help after graduation!

It strikes me a little odd that those who review Carrington College are only 3 and one anonymous one seems like they work there.
