THIS SCHOOL IS TERRIBLE. They have a filthy campus, credits that are not transferable, and they accept people that never even graduated from High School. If you don't have a GED they will still take you as a student. I was ripped off by this school. One of their teachers would talk about shoes, sex and Ben Stein the entire class. I was not paying 240.00 a credit hour to hear this . BEWARE!
