Cambridge College of Healthcare & Technology — Local services in Delray Beach

I’ve experienced several instances of discrimination that remain unaddressed. After a formal complaint, I’ve been facing retaliation and unfair treatment. I am a disabled veteran, punished for advocating for my rights as a student. EDIT: My concerns at this college have never been addressed. In fact, no investigation was conducted following my formal complaint, and when I spoke with the VP of Compliance on the phone, she was dismissive and laughed condescendingly at me (the school lacks an ADA coordinator, and actual support for students with disabilities). “Federal Law Protects Students from Disability Discrimination • Section 504 protects any student with a disability from discrimination based on disability. • Regardless of how well he or she performs in school, a student who has trouble concentrating, reading, thinking, organizing or prioritizing projects, among other important tasks, because of ADHD may have a disability and be protected under Section 504.” I was denied the accommodations to which I was entitled under Section 504 of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). They finally granted me the accommodations after I filed a formal complaint- more than a year after I submitted my paperwork). In fact, the Dean of my program lied to me multiple times. She claimed she had spoken with professors about my accommodations, but when I checked with my professors, I discovered she had not. Furthermore, the first time I complained about not being able to use my accommodations, the program's Dean called me and angrily asked why I had not disclosed my disability to her before being admitted (I submitted proof of disability and requested accommodations when I enrolled). Since then, she has done everything she can to make my college experience as negative as possible, including retaliation, unfair treatment, and deliberate attempts to fail me. For instance, I was forced to take three exams in a row while suffering from neurological problems that impaired my vision and made it impossible for me to concentrate due to pain. Even when I asked the Dean if I could use my accommodations or do the exam the next day, given there were two days of testing, she refused, insisting that I take it that day regardless of how I was feeling. “Under Section 504, a student with migraine can be a student with a disability for purposes of Section 504 if the student’s migraine substantially limits one or more of the student’s major life activities. " I was forced to take the second exam twice (only mine malfunctioned several times and shut down near the end). Furthermore, there were several discrepancies in these exams (e.g., matching questions with missing matching columns, diagrams, answer choices, and unrelated questions). I requested a review of the exams but received no response. I am a dedicated and hardworking student who has done well in the program on my own merit; however, this dean has made several attempts to sabotage my progress (e.g., not adding earned clinical hours or overtime promised for holiday clinical attendance, dismissing my questions and concerns, leaving me without a clinical site, etc.). Despite of my disabilities/medical issues I’ve remained committed and industrious. Confidentiality is also a major issue at this institution; somehow the clinical site I was assigned to was aware of my complaint. Furthermore, I've been purposefully sent farther out every clinical rotation, and this semester I was sent to a clinical site that took me nearly 2 hours to reach and another 2 to return from. After requesting a change, instead of calling me and discussing it, I was dropped from clinicals without an alternate site. This decision, in my opinion, is arbitrary and retaliatory, and it was made solely for the purpose of affecting my progress in the program, financial aid, and grants. Please keep this in mind when selecting a school, because schools like Cambridge College of Health and Technology exist solely to make a profit, disregarding your rights as a student and showing no concern for your success in...

This school is by far the wrost school I ever attended, biggest mistake of my life, I waisted my money, let me tell you that when you enroll the staff, and everyone will tell you, they are here to help and make sure you don’t fail ummmm LIEs.

This school the staff make sure you fail and try to collect your money to retake the course. The staff at Cambridge pick and choose who to fail.

The teachers teach you one thing and, the test are on another never what you learn To make it worst the director makes your final exam and she’s no where close to being your teacher.

you attend four days of classes with no time to study and testes are back to back. Upon enrollment they well tell you it’s two to three days a week. For the nursing program they give more classes that’s not necessary just for additional money.

What you don’t know is that in a class that starts with thirty students by the middle only has a remaining of seven students.

This school shouldn’t have the nursing program in it at all, if you plan on taking nursing try else where with this school your be sorry, they give you one pair of scrubs and everything else your buying out of pocket for the program. They tell students don’t work and they don’t care it’s your problem but I guess upon taking your financial aid money and making you pay them every month you shouldn’t work. You can’t have emergency’s your not a real person

If you have to do clinicals and there is no school for whatever reason, you have to find your own hospital, your own location to do it by yourself where they have no recommendations or nothing to give you but they no every location is going to ask for a background check and fingerprints.

Bad bad bad school for nursing They are so bad they go class to class to ask students to do good reviews for them and they tell you what...

I suggest, if you want to become a nurse, that you look elsewhere. Save yourself the heartache, after two years in the nursing program and over $50k in debt I made it to my last day and the new Director Conte won’t let me take my Exit Exam.

To get straight to the point, When I started this program back in 2019 my official agreement with the school has nothing about us taking an ATI NCLEX course at the end. The school recently added this new Nclex ATI course that you have to do for 8 weeks in the syllabus, mind you none of us knew about it until Preceptorship ( last course of the program) according to the rules you have 8 weeks and you have to pass the predictor exam and get a 90% chance of passing NCLEX before you can take exit exam.

I recently took the predictor and got 88% chance of passing NCLEX, my ATI coach said I can take the exam 3 times to pass she’ll retest me next week but since my exit Exam is this Friday August 20th, Conte said I have to retake the preceptorship all over again and won’t let me test. So no I’m not taking the class over because I passed all my classes, did my hours now all I need is to take my Exit exam and get the heck out. I started the ATI course on July 2nd basically I got until August 28th to finish but still Director Conte won’t let me take my exit exam. What this school is doing to our time, money and education is unfair and cruel. They passed whoever they want and failed whoever they want, believe me I got proof of that. And that’s why I’m writing this review today if you are thinking about going to this school don’t, do your research first because once you start you have no other choice but to finish since the school is...
