I joined this online school around 2006 thinking I was going to do good, but unfortunately they do not give you any training, so you have to learn how to use their complicated generic website by yourself. They also could careless if you was doing your work or not, they give you no confidence what so ever. Today I recently found out that my semester had ended and that all of my work is lost unless I pay $150 and $500 for another semester. So needless to say, they'll sniff you for every penny you have. BEWARE!! DON'T PICK THIS SCHOOL .. Now i'm 18, behind in 2 years of highschool and their credits will not transfer so its either pay $650 and hope I can finish all my work in 1 semester.

Highly upset

AUTHOR: Highly Disappointed - ()

 Your right they do rip you off. I'm currently a student My term is going to end soon yet, I'm not finished with all my credits. I will be going into a second term by 30 days yet I have to pay full tuition. I think it should be prorated do to the fact I'm not taking the whole term. It's there fault that I'm going into a second term. They take so long to issue you your Exams. I will not tell anyone about them! Word of mouth is the best advertisement. Highly upset.

I beg to differ...

I attempted to call First Coast Academy to speak to the "principal". I never got a call back then when I called again a week later the said person in charge wasn't in during school hours.

I was a student at First Coast Academy.  Everyone there was nice and I was able to get my diploma.  I recommend it to anyone I know who is looking for education.  No complaints here.
