I attended this school for medical assistant in 2004, what a joke!!! First of all I was told that I was honor graduate well when I went to the graduation ceremony I found out different, they awarded it to someone else and never informed me. So needless to say I left the ceremony and received a phone call from HCI the next day apologizing for the miscommunication. When I enrolled I was told that the certification was included in the tuition, well it was not. The school was not around very long, I was informed that they misappropriated funds (financial aid) How unfair we are left to pay back a student loan for a wast of a school!!!

I attended this school when it first opened in Reading. They made it sound so good and even gauranteed me a job after graduation. They also said they will keep helping me to find a job if I couldn't. Well let me tell you,this was the worst school I have ever went too. They didn't do nothing for me when I graduated. They didn't help me find a job. I had to find it myself and it wasn't even dealing with the course I had taken.If I had to rate this school from a 0-10 it would be a 1.
