This is the dumbest commercial to represent a great school. I don't hit my alarm every morning and jump out of my freshly made bed with a smile, skip out of my furnished apartment and fist bump the hot rod instructors. This is a college, times are tough and and school can drag on some times. But you get out what you put in. And the instructors here definitely know there stuff and love what they do. Typically the ones ragging on the school are the guys failing the tests and doing the bare minimum

@Malikot911 CONT- when I started school, 3 places were looking for maint. mechanic and 7 places were looking for welders. when I finished, the number had almost doubled plus, the instructors I had welcomed recruiters from these jobs and gave students recommendations when they finish.

@Malikot911 I agree. If you choose a suitable career that you want to do for a while or the rest of your life and you need the the necessary skills to do the job, make sure the demand is there from the time you start school and when you finish so the job will be easily obtainable without the hassle of looking.

@mack70214 smart move there bud.... and that really is a good starting wage.. but i believe that it doesnt matter what school you go to as long as you are willing to learn and i think everybody should be aware of the cost... college is expensive period other school costs a lil more but it is up what you prefer..

@nyyphi13 use to before I decided to work for better opportunities.

cont.- and I don't have any loans or financial aid to pay back. even though schools like this teach some basic skills, they're not in depth when it comes to career readiness. also their job placement isn't as guaranteed as they make it out to be so expect to hit the ground running to look for a job yourself if you decide to go to this type of school.

another FOR-PROFIT school hustling people in to debt. schools like this are not well known in the workforce sector. People, if you really want a good job or career, please invest in going to a Comm. College and don't waste time or money on schools like this and wyotech. that 30k debt will strain your credit rating especially if you can't find a job. I went to a comm. college, got an associates and 5 certificates and got a job as a mechanic with starting pay of $28 an hr.
