Horrid, I attended the Ford Aset program and graduated (maybe) in 2005. Through out the class there was disruptive students talking over the instructor, and very little instruction. The new person they hired had no teaching experience. Many days were spent watching movies like "Happy Gilmore". One day me and another student, who was also trying to do well asked if we could take a head off an engine, very normal thing in a shop. "No that's too hard" said the instructor.

They are very disorganized, especially with the program they use to keep up with degree requirements (mysanjacGPS). Aside from the horrific advisors, generally, the professors are good.
