Everest College is nothing but a large company taking advantage of vulnerable individuals trying to better their lives. Every statement they ever made was a complete fabrication to increase their federal funding.
The school is not recognized by any companies requiring more than a high school education. I went to Everest College in Arlington, TX for criminal justice and not one police department in the entire Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex recognizes this school as legitimate.
If you want to be a professional security guard making $10 an hour, that is fine; but to spend 2 years to earn a "degree" and be able to call it a degree is obsurd! If anyone in the Dallas/Fort Worth area has gone to Everest College and feels victimized by this scam, contact attorney Brian Sherman at (((redacted))).

Sorry to Hear About Your Experience with Everest

I've seen their ads on TV right here in Philadelphia, along with Sanford Brown and ITT Tech. (Sadly, Everest doesn't have any campuses here in Philadelphia.) They all tell you how you can have a "bright future" in a "career that you'll love."They don't tell you the whole story and reality of working in the medical and criminal justice fields. There is nothing glamorous and exciting about working with sick people, sticking needles in them, working at a murder or robbery scene, chasing after drug dealers, and so forth.
I can't understand why a trade school would train you for a career in criminal justice. Most jobs in that field require a four-year college degree. I don't know where future police officers go to be trained at in Dallas. But I do know that here in Philadelphia, they have to go to the Police Academy. In New York, I believe that they have to have college credits.
The sad thing is that you're probably several thousand dollars in student loan debt. They schools charge way too much money. To me, they charge the equivalent of a year's tuition at a regular college or university. You'll probably be paying that loan off for the rest of your life. And if you fall behind in your payments, bill collectors will be constantly hounding you.
It's better to go to a regular two-year college first. You can always transfer on to a four-year
college. Let's face it. Employers today want a degree and training from a recognized college or university; as well as industry-approved training.
Whatever you do, don't give up hope. Keep on keepin' on and just simply hang in there.
