Pacific Oaks College — Attraction in Pasadena

As a current student of this school, I would strongly advise searching elsewhere. From the start, many aspects of the enrollment process have been misleading. I will say the staff members are extremely friendly. However, there is no communication or follow-up from counselors, the layout of classes was misleading from the start, and honestly, everything is a bit old school. I truly feel that I was misled completely and everything should have seemed too good to be true from the start. As someone who chose to do online classes as opposed to in-person, I was surprised to see how much there is miscommunication between professors and those who create the program in general.

I would never recommend this college. Let along the social work program if you wanna be like me and spend a lot of money and get zero results then go to this college and attend the social work program to top it all off. They decided that it was acceptable for me to pay for the class. they kicked me out of here proof there’s a lot of other colleges. They’re actually friendly professors. They actually work with the students not...
