WARNING: DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL! YOU MIGHT NOT FULLY READ MY REVIEW BUT I'M WARNING YOU DON'T WALK INTO THIS MESS! All they care about is your money. This school is a total scam! There's a reason why this school has so many bad reviews just pay attention to them!

When I walked in to get info they told me a bunch of things that later on were false. THEIR STAFF IS THE MOST UNPROFESSIONAL I'VE EVER ENCOUNTERED AT ANY FACILITY! Let's start with you Tonia Tania whatever your name is, you can never get a hold of her... not via emails or calls.. in matter fact... you can NEVER get a hold of nobody here! If you leave a voicemail you never hear back! I have to work 2 freaking jobs and when I'm available the staff is already gone... so my only way to communicate with them is via calls/emails... NOTHING! I have a collection agency trying to collect a debt of 8k I owe the school but how am I supposed to get a payment arrangement if you can never get a hold of them! OH! and let's not leave behind how they tell you they will help you find a job, but from those I know that graduated believe me once you leave the school you're on your own! They already got your money that's it!

I emailed Ivette and she was supposed to forward my email to Tonia and Rosie... Never heard from Rosie and Tania sent an email with little to no helpful info, email her back for better understanding and assistance... never heard from her again... NOT TO MENTION that Ivette also forgot to forward my email so that shows the level of attention to their students, PLUS the times me and others I've seen have gotten a huge attitude from this lady in financial aid and other staff members... it's a joke... there's always new staff that don't know they're doing! last time I went this one female remain answering personal calls and texts while I'm trying to be helped! SERIOUSLY?! If you decide you want to go to a university or another college you're screwed because they do not transfer your credits! Not other schools or jobs take this one seriously! REALLY!

Here's the deal... I work for a business and I take care of hundreds of people on a daily basis. It is my job to keep track of each and every single one of them. If you guys can't do that for your students then you guys should hire better professionals! I really hope this school gets sued one day big time for 1. mistreating your students and not meeting the requirements of every school staff (we cannot count on you guys) and 2. false advertisement plus all the other reasons that will take a long paragraph.

Little advise for all of the staff at FTC... IF YOU CANNOT HANDLE PROPERLY YOUR JOB THEN IT'S TIME FOR YOU GUYS TO START LOOKING FOR A DIFFERENT ONE!! OUR EDUCATION, TIME AND MONEY SHOULDN'T BE PLAYED AS A BUSINESS FOR YOU GUYS OR A JOKE OKAY!!! IT IS YOUR JOB TO ASSIST US AS STUDENTS NO MATTER WHAT!! LEARN A LITTLE FROM BETTER SCHOOLS! EVEN FREAKING VALENCIA HAS SOOO MUCH BETTER FACULTY AND THEY DO CARE ABOUT THEIR STUDENTS!

GUYS! I know some of us don't want to or can't be in school for so long and only have so much time to study.... but if you're serious about your education and taking that step forward in your professional life for your own sake and/or the sake of your family... don't waste your time and money here. There are other schools in the area that are so much cheaper like Valencia and that will really be there for you and will DEFINITIVELY work a schedule for you! Even UCF being a HUGE university has way better attention with their students. Going to college is not like going to high school or some audition, this is your future that will define your path in your professional life, for yourself and your family I am telling you... really think about...

I do not recommend this place at all. If you are looking for a career please go to Valencia or UCF. Do not waste time of money in this joke of a place. To start they are very unprofessional they do not explain in detail what you are getting in to . Financial aid is a headache, they are no help and every time you try to call they never pick up the phone let alone email you in regards to status on your money. The only way to get anything done with these people is in person and because they have no other choice. Professors are there to pick up a check and nothing else, they do not care about teaching going to class is a waste of time. All they do is talk about their day and nothing related to class. They are not teachers at all do not get fooled by a title the fact that someone has a degree and a title does not mean that they know how to teach what they learned. It takes a lot to be a professor and to know how teach a student, takes time, patience, a gift to share your experience and knowledge. Not just show up and get paid. The administration is horrible. no professionalism nor respect, they hate to be bother ( why work on customer service if you get bother by questions) Why would a so called "prestige" collage hire personnel of this category in the first place. This has been the work decision I have ever made, I was fooled by the director of the school when he assured me that the way I was being treated and all my issues were going to be resolved and it did not. People please take my advise take your time, money, and all your energy to learn and gain a real degree by a real university it will take you longer but it will be worth it. Right now I am stuck with $16.000.00 loan from this worthless place for nothing just for a certification that I earn on my own reading a book because from a professor was not. I can assure you that. And they like to call them selves a good school. Please I hope someone in there looks and reads this message to see if for once something changes. It has been a horrible experience all my expectations have been crush by the staff, from the moment you walk in to the moment you leave. They are all about money and nothing else. Do your self a favor and...

I am a former student from a while back, i was here on 11/03/2014 @ 1:50pm - 2:15pm. the purpose of my visit was to pick up records for attendance & cost of classes. At that time i was simply asking a few questions about financial operations, how the loans are processed, & a number to corporate; verbally might i add & immediately security was called by a lady named Tonia the claimed security guard's name was luis.{ i did not see anything to indicate this person was an officer of any kind} That action of hostility came to me as very suspicious, all i was doing was asking questions & getting MY OWN PERSONAL DOCUMENTS. which everyone has the right to do. for my own records i tried taking video the incident which i am also allowed to do, when i did "luis" grabbed me by my hand seemed like he was trying to get me into a restraint of some type in which he ended up damaging my phone, I immediately left in fear of not knowing what this person might have done next while being rushed out. Again this was all verbal and i was only there to pick up records that rightfully belonged to me, yet somehow the staff at this academic facility felt the need to prompt a physical altercation on their behalf. I did not even get all of my documents either because of that incident, only some because this all happened as Tonia was printing the documents for me. {this lady was also very rude answering back in such a loud tone to obviously get the attention of her co-workers in the nearby offices all right next to each-other - when i asked her the questions about how the school/company handle or process the cost of classes based on attendance & other factors i.e "do i get charged for an entire class if i only attended a day?" To me that seems like withholding information. I have never seen a business act so unprofessionally, they did not use the term "get security" for whatever reason, instead they said "get luis". I don't know what that was implying, but it surely appeared to be threatening which ultimately came out to be true & that is not how a "college" of any type should respond to a situation...
