Heard ad on the radio, should have stopped right there, nothing I have ever heard on the radio ends up being legit. Called up to ask them to send info. They give me this obviously scripted song and dance about how its proven that mailing out info is not effective, blah, blah, we should set up a meeting. Ok, so I am not available to talk at this time, I say I'll call back. A couple hours later a strange number calls me, its a woman, says she understands I talked to someone at PC Pro Schools, she wants to set something up. I find this odd b/c I never gave my phone number to the first person, he clearly wrote down from caller id and told his boss or something, obviously didn't want this "sale" to get away. I told the woman I again didn't have time to talk, I would call back soon but I was in the car, she made sure to tell me the phone number like 3 times. Ok, I already had it, on phone, but whatever. A couple days go by, and I ended up setting up the appointment online. I was at work, it was more convenient. Someone called IMMEDIATELY back. Ok, they're eagar, fine. Set up the appointment. I started to get curious and wanted to make sure the school was legit, so I checked out the website. I saw the link about this website, ripoffreport, found it very strange they (the "school") would put that up on their homepage, it was almost an advertisment for me to come here and look at the reviews. I checked out other reviews online, realized it was possibly a scam, and saw a few things about the price, which I found to be outrageous, but I figured could be exaggerated so I called the school. The first guy who answered would NOT give me the price. After dancing around the question for a few minutes and telling me over and over again to come in for a tour, he said he wouldn't know anyway, he doesn't deal with finances. I said ok, give me someone in the financial dept. He transferred me to a woman, I think the same one who had called me before, and I had the identical conversation with her. She kept saying how there is no way to estimate cost, different programs cost different amounts, they don't price by credit. I said, ok, I'm an average student. I take an average course. How much ROUGHLY will I spend. She still wouldn't answer. I say, ok, am I safe to assume, like $5k like other schools are? No straight answer. Finally, I said, look. Its clear you guys are not legit, possibly a scam like I read onlin- CLICK. She hung up on me.

People... don't waste your time. I would have happiily gone to the meeting if she had been honest with me, even if it did cost an arm and a leg. It was just really far for me to drive, and since I felt uneasy I wanted to be sure. These people are rude and clearly just out to make a sale. Save your time and money and go to a real tech school.
