This school is Terrible!!!! They aggressively presue you after you call to inquire about the school. Then once they get you into the office to "look" at the school they don't let you leave until they sign you up. Check this out, 3 of the 5 instructors that i have had either give you the answers to the tests or they dont even look at the tests and mark the it with a passing grade. theres no attendance policy because they really dont care if you show up or not unless your getting a bus card: meaning they are paying for it. Once the school scams the financial aid out of you, your screwed because if you drop out they keep your money and your on your own. We just got 5 new students in our class that didn't even get their books and they asked the 5 students to share 1 book! In all of my classes there's groups of stupid girls that sit in the back of the classrooms and laugh, talk over instructors, and constantly disrupt the class. Ive seen so many people get up and actually walk out of classes because theres no reason to sit in the class when you cant even hear the instructor. The school itself is ugly the buildings are falling apart inside, some of the classrooms stink, and dont even get me started on the restrooms! I even had one class that was connected to another and students were constantly walking in and out even while we were testing. The only thing that actually looks good at the school is the admissions office of course. Oh and im going to school there currently and there is not a damn thing new in that school. id love for you to tell me where the new computers are: the school is still using windows 2000, and where are those vending machines? i have classes in all buildings and i haven't seen any...... also i hate to burst your bubble girl, but i promise you'll never see a laptop from that school lmao!!!! A laptop hahaha i'm gonna go ask for one tomorrow!!!! Oh, there are a FEW good instructors but it's really just a waste when you can't even get your books. Career point is a scam so make sure you think check every other school you can before you waste your time here. My cousin went to kaplan and she said it was awsome. I have a 4.0 and i go to school everyday because i have to make the best of what i got, but I know when a potential employer looks at my resume and they see career point, they will probably trash it hopefully someone will take pitty on me and give me a job. Don't just take my word for it, but do your homework and don't make the same mistake i have. i rated the school a one only because i couldnt give it a zero. SHAME ON YOU CAREER POINT!!!

I do not recommend this school to anyone. Just go to a community colllege instead. They make false promises but you don't find out until it's too late to opt out.

The employee turnover rate is horrible. They talk about professionalism to their students and they do not show any themselves. They will accept anyone as long as they know that they will be getting money. Once the loans come through and the school gets paid...you're pretty much on your own. It is a for profit school so they could care less if you learn or not. Every department is screwed up. They constantly mess up on the student's paperwork or they lose it. And don't expect to get your books right away either. Some students have started school and they didn't receive their books until after a month!!! They don't have enough space for all the students but they still keep cramming people in there. Students have tried to call the media to investigate all the complaints but nothing was ever put on the news because the same people that work there say that the owner pays off the news stations so they will not air negative things about this school.Many students have had bad experiences here. THEY ALSO DO NOT HELP YOU LOOK FOR A JOB ONCE YOU GRADUATE. THEY SAY LIFETIME ASSISTANCE BUT THAT IS FALSE. IF YOU HAVE A CRIMINAL BACK GROUND OF ANY KIND, DO NOT BELIEVE THEM IF THEY SAY THEY CAN PLACE YOU IN A JOB. THAT IS NOT TRUE. PEOPLE-DO NOT GET SUCKERED INTO THEIR LIES. YOU'LL JUST BE ANOTHER 15,000 PAYCHECK TO THEM AND THEY'LL FORGET ABOUT YOU.
