Pacific Oaks College Administration Office — Attraction in Pasadena

I wanted to take some time before I posted my remarks about this college. I once believed in this school, it's mission, value, core belief in education and educating the future educators of our youth. My grandmother graduated from this school and at one time I was proud to work here. As I continued to pour myself into this organization building partnerships and relationships and enrolling students into programs that at one time had some credibility, seems the executive team and cabinet members decided to make changes that didnt benefit the students. They placed people in positions who had no experience and had lacked management skills. Power trips and egos weighed heavy down every hall. A school where money in their pocket meant more than the education of the student. Where we promoted work life balance to our student, community, family, equality, and diversity. Yet somehow that was never promoted to our staff and was not allowed to be practiced by staff, we were yelled at, degraded, and belittled for having a voice, but yet voices is our magazine and we wanted our students to have a voice. As a form of constructive criticism I can only hope that they work on really utilizing the training sessions they used to make us directors sit, because they would waste a lot of money on those for nothing. I can only hope they can clean house and revamp and stop trying to fix a method of education that is not broken. Stop trying to change things when we really need to teach our children values and community which is what our new and up coming teachers are looking for and if you keep changing your core value someone else will take what you had and roll with it. Because that is what the market is looking for and that is what your graduates are teaching in their classrooms. Instead of asking your alumni for money ask...

I was accepted into this school and I was so happy. I always heard great things about this school. I was told my BA would be covered by financial aid. I repeatedly told Martha from admissions that I was not going to take out any loans. Well I was mislead. I was also told that tuition deposit was going to be returned back to me and again I was mislead. Now that I don't want to go to this school nobody calls me back. I look on the website and it states that the tuition is non refundable. My question is why was Martha lying and why does she not call back? How dare you lie and take people's hard earned money especially in a pandemic and not return it and lie about everything. This school is just about money. You should be shut down. I hope your donors know what is going on. I want my refund!!! You don't even deserve...

We were establishing a partnership with the College to work with Marshall students identified as needing assistance. Great staff interaction and hope to...
