Hi,I am a current student of ITT-Technical school in Seattle Washington.I ,like many other students have been ripped off.I began in june of 2001 I then signed my contract for $1200.00 for the semester,in August Financial aid said I owed $1800.00 every month I then asked how is that possible,their breaking a contract(I still have the contract)then financial aid told me they would lower it a bit and if I didn't pay the amount they wanted I would have to leave the school(I still was patient,and said fine and paid the new amounts)then we've(me and the students complained about that and how some of the teachers taught(especially with the discrimination towards women from another class)then I needed to take a semester off because my job wasn't paing enough ($7.00 an hour)to keep my apartment,pay my bills and pay for school,I then talked to the dean and she said that's fine she'll get me set up the following semester,I then asked about my payments she inturn said that would not be a problem I can make them when I come back and they'll set up a new arrangement,I then gave her my new address,said ok.now It's time for me to return,I then Get a call from a collection agancy(the guy was nice)but said their sueing me,I asked why ,he told me and then he gave me leway to contact the school.I contact the dean (no problems)she said I'm starting in march and to contact financial aid,I then asked her about the lawsuit,and she said she had no idea what happened.I then contact Lisa Loftin ,very nicley I asked her what happened ,she then insulted me and said she pulled me out of collections,I then was still very calm trying to tell her my problems with financial aid,she wouldn't let me speak and insulted me again and again ,talking about how my a*s was attached & I have to watch it by myself,and that there a business.Now I'm mad I tell her I want to speak to her boss ,no response then she tells me and say's he's in a meeting,I contact his secretary and leave a message.Like many other students I want a refund back.Abusiness should not treat a customer this way ,especially a school(what a rip off)

My name is Lisa. Misty failed to mention that at the time of our conversation, she was no longer a student from ITT. Whatever the reason may have been why she chose to discontinue her education, she failed to contact the Financial Aid Department to settle her student account. I was not employed by the Seattle school at the time of her departure, generally, businesses have a policy of conduct of how they handle accounts before sending delinquent student's to collections. There had been several attempts to contact her, however there was no forwarding address and she stated that she had moved a few times, which may explain why there was not contact. I felt that her situation afforded her a break so I offered to take her account out of collections.
In doing so, she insisted on defending herself and made a few accusations toward the school. I simply told her that if it were me, and telling her about my view about watching my bottom when it comes to finances.
I did not in anyway refer to her "a*s", that would be unprofessional. I apologized to her immediately for I could tell that my comment about myself had offended her. Sometimes when individuals refer to themselves as an example they are hoping that a person will learn from other's mistakes.
She did ask to speak to my supervisor at the time and he was indeed in a meeting. I gave the information to him and left it at that. Misty failed to keep the payment arrangements we had arranged, therefore I had to send her account back to collections. In this particular instance I feel that her feelings were a reflection of how she felt about me and not about ITT being a rip off.
She legitamately owed money before I offended her and she still owed money after. If anything she has attacked my professional integrity which has prompted my rebuittal. If all she wants is an apology, I already gave it to her. There are always two sides to every story.
