I'm at the end of my externship and am very upset with the school. Too many students are having a hard time finding jobs. The school isn't accredited with CAHEPP. Most reputable hospitals won't even consider you if the school you went to isn't fully accredited. Rose , the externship placement coordinator should be fired...but her head is so far up Myras ass that she gets away with doing the most minimal..She only helps who she feels like and if she doesn't like your race or look , she won't help you get an externship. She gets away with it because she's the owners friend...politics and total unproffesionalism...DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME....

I graduated from WCUI a couple years ago and could not have been HAPPIER with my experience. The program was hard, no doubt, but I found that it prepared me well for the job- which, I guess, is the point. The thing I liked most about WCUI is that its small and had a family feel to it. This is not how I felt when I visited other schools, where I got the hard sell. The job market for DMS is solid, but competitive. I was told this from the go and knew that I would have to work hard, which I did. See for yourself

This school is horrible their is no proffesionalism. The employees are terrible they take all your money and forget about you. I had a nasty experience the supposdley manager head of the school does not manage her staff very well. It is all just drama and gossip about each other including the students, instead of giving the students help and assisting in what ever they need. Dont you ever waste your money hear and especailly your precious time.
