Axia University Of Phoenix Fraudulant ripoff Phoenix Arizona

STOP ATTENDING ALL THESE JUNK ON LINE SCHOOLS AND YOUR PROBLEMS WILL BE SOLVED
All brick & morter colleges and community colleges offer on line classes now at reasonable state tuition rates. If everyone would just stop this Bull$#*& of attending these rip off places of higher education, you would not be getting yourselves in a financial bind, or having these rip off companies trying to ruin your credit. Then UOP, AXIA, STRAYER, CAPELLA, and who ever else Jon Doe for profit schools will close up shop and be gone for good!

These on line schools are a 100% rip off. I have taken a few on line classes through one of my local community college's and I am satisfied to know that its 100% accredited and transferable to any 4 year university, no questions asked.

Please everyone, stop giving yourself a heartache

You went to two semesters, so the University kept your first disbursement of financial aid, to pay for the classes that you had taken! You cannot just walk away and not have to pay for anything becuase you didn't want to do it anymore. I guarantee that UOP kept the financial aid that was meant for your first two semsters, then returned the rest, leaving you owing your lender for just your first two semesters!

Pay attention to what you are doing, everything I told you is information that is contained within the initial application, and you would have had to indicate that you had read and understood it to continue. It wasn't a bunch of fine print, it was one paragrah that explains your problem.

The US. Dept of Education (USDOE) found the UOP had subverted their regulations on recruiting, and settled that case for 9.8 million dollars. (google UOP DOE for the review). Specifically, they found UOP management pressured recruiters into enrolling UNQUALIFIED students.

Which may cost the UOP hundreds of millions. The suit alleges the UOP violated regulations in recruiting students. Several recruiters from a CA campus are quoted in the excerpt below about what was happening at the UOP...

"Hendow and Albertson, represented by attorney Nancy Krop of Redwood City, have sued under the False Claims Act, which allows citizens to go to court on behalf of the government to allege wrongdoing by groups that receive federal aid. They would not speak with the Mercury News about their experiences at the North First Street campus.

But other former recruiters not involved in the lawsuit support the suit's claims. Rebecca Mackover of Campbell, Rashida Mirza of San Jose and others say that as pressure mounted to boost profit, recruiters were paid for the number of students they enrolled and were encouraged to ignore transcripts and rush potential students into inappropriate classes.

"University of Phoenix created a sweatshop atmosphere that was only focused on new business," said Mackover, who worked with Hendow and Albertson.
Said Mirza: "It was all about getting the students in now, even if they couldn't afford it or it wasn't in their best interest."

Students and former students interviewed by the Mercury News echo the recruiters' accounts, saying they felt pressure to enroll. Some say they were urged to take classes they didn't need; others say they were encouraged to seek federal financial aid, even when their work schedule made completion unlikely. Recruiters made false promises to convince them to enroll, downplaying the consequences, they say.

Two years ago, Nicole Gillespie, a Kansas-based Navy technician, was suddenly deployed to the Persian Gulf and could not complete her studies. When she returned, she faced bungled paperwork and a bill from the university for more than $6,000. The debt has ruined her credit, she said."
