Porter And Chester Institute

Worst school experience ever. Had 4 different teachers from August to December smh.

It was so disappointing and disorganized. Program:MA

Reading other reviews I see the that the dental assistant problem is doing well.

My son went to the school a few years back.

If I had known, I would have contacted an Attorney. The teacher was never there, the classes were short as there was no one there to teach the students, unfortunately I was suck with a loan.

He went on to become an electrician, learning as a apprentice.

He ha a great job. No thanks to the school.

I attended for 3 or so weeks back in 2013. Me and my friend dropped out because the teacher in the computer repair program allowed students he knew from before to play Xbox and video games all class.

When we went to talk to the dean about it he did nothing so we dropped out. 3 years later I got a bill for around 3500 for those 3 weeks from general collections.

Porter and Chester never attempted to contact me after conning me so I paid that and now I am being charged another 1000 in fees. Biggest scam on the planet these people are sleazy to the mass.

This school is the biggest waste of money all they care about is prophet not the education of students classroom time was copying PowerPoints there was no hands on Learning as there was only two teachers to 30 students Beware of this school someone needs to put a stop to this for-profit school

Hi, my name is Legacee Teixeira, and I am beyond excited to be a part of your dental program. I will be starting in October very soon.

You're being contacted to get proof of my admission due to the fact that I have signed up for a student discovery card.

I had submitted my enrollment agreement, yet they informed me that I needed something that I did not e-sign. Please get back to me as soon as you can, thanks!

My son just called me to tell me he received a call from a person at this institute to let him know that he will not be attending classes in July because there were not enough students that enrolled. I had to remind him of what they put him through with just trying to get him registered, they kept hounding him for their first payment due before July 7th. Thank God for all the comments because I was going to send the check on Saturday!

My daughter was charged $20,000 for one semester at Porter and Chester for a Medical Assistant Certificate.

My son has paid $4,500 per semester at Holyoke Community College for Computer Science and has an Associates Degree for $18,000.

I paid the equivalent of about $800 by today's value to get ACAD Certified by Autodesk, Inc.

Porter and Chester have lost focus on the intent of teaching a certified course at a reasonable rate.

Presently Porter and Chester is taking advantage of there being no rule against withholding transcripts of certified courses if they are owed money.

What we all need to know; it is illegal to withhold financial records from student or other school request. It is also within Federal Law to have the classes and grades reported on this finical statement as part of the details of charges and payments made.

Only one of the tea hers seemed to care or be interested in teaching. Decided to leave and go to a school that actually taught you rhings instead of used you as a paycheck and for free labor.

Its now been 65 days since i left the school and they will not respond or give me back the 950$ thay they owe me. Always an excuse, the person isnt in, there is a family emergency, it has yo be handled bu a seperaye department. 5hey legally had 60 days to pay me back and I havent gotten a single update from them or answer to the 18 times I have contacted them about this.

Very poor business practice and very poor customer service. Go to literally any other school!

I have many friends and a daughter who are having a difficult time retaining the information that the instructors are not putting out.As a concerned parent and friend i feel this school should be investigated.Several students had voiced complaints and concerns to the administrator who failed to meet the students needs.For the price the school is charging they are not receiving the quality of education they are going to be in debt of paying.This needs to be looked into. Thank you for your time.

Took my car in for an alternator .They never comunicated with me.I kept calling.A wire melted.I couldnt get ahold of anyone to tell them i found the part.The i structor kept putting me off.After 7 days I got mad. I called and said I want my car.2 hours later it was done.He called..no charge keys are in it come get it.????.Took a taxi down .Walked up to the car.MY WINDSHIELDS CRACKED

NOONE TOLD ME..CALLED.APOLOGIZED..IN. A NUTSHELL "F" U LADY.OMG

I STILL HAVE NOT HEARD FROM THEM.Noe I have to get tjis fixed.

Let me start by saying don’t waste your time This course supposed to be 18 months worth or computer networking actually you come to school from 6 to 830 instead of 6 to 1030 profesor half of the time doesn’t know what he’s doing

30,000.00 for just a diploma cause your certification you can get then by getting the book and study hard on you own time a total waste of my time

The Director is a piece of art you ask for his time and all he does is Bla Bla Bla cause he don’t do anything to help you with your concerns and school problems

They are just money hungry and don’t care about us students

Also new student comes in every beginning of each term so not everyone is on the same learning level

Still no job in the course I took, I knew more than the teacher in Tech class. They promised to help me find a job, Ive called and even went in to see the job search advocate , and always given excuses to busy to see me or answer the phone, now Im in Dept of 20,000 this school sucked and happy to hear it closed, hope the rest of them do as well and a lawsuit is filed , so I can get loan wiped off my credit report, money hungry *** who never cared about their students , hope you get whats coming to you

Suckered into borrowing 30000$ in student loans from the federal government, to pay for education I could have received for an 8th of the cost at a community college and would have received a better education and future. You guys prayed on a uneducated and poor young man for your own wallets.

Two middle fingers and a *** you to Porter and Chester. Save your career and future and do not choose Porter and chester
