This Computer Science Major Couldn’t Get a Best Buy Job. Now He Refuses to Pay Back His For-Profit College Loans
At 28, Michael Adorno got fed up with his low-wage job at a pizzeria in Richmond Hill, Georgia, and decided to go to college. Adorno attended the for-profit Everest College, part of Corinthian Colleges Inc., in Colorado Springs, Colorado, from 2010 to 2012, and he received an associate degree in network administration.
Three years later Adorno is unemployed and was even rejected from a job at Best Buy. Adorno belongs to a group called the Corinthian 100, alumni of Corinthian Colleges who refuse to pay back their student loans and claim they were defrauded by Corinthian. Like other members of the group, he claims he got a subpar education and was left with massive debt and no suitable job.

Lol I almost went there. I wanted to get a music production degree. I think I it cost about $10,000 to go there, so I started stacking up my money but I'm glad I never went. -
It's a shame legit colleges don't have better 2-year programs though. There's clearly a big demand for them.

I was tired of that ? telling me to get up off of the couch to do something with my life. Good that I didn't go to Everest.

Wonder what the Everest guy is doing now? I know he mad that he had to take up for that wack ass college

Just go to community college for undergraduate

Those for for-profit schools are all scams. I almost worked for one a few years back at the art institute. They had a full blown recruiting department like an agency smh. It was basically a sales job, something wasn't right so I took another position. They charge more than private schools. When I almost went there back in '04 it was 77K for 3 years SMH. I finished in a state school in Cali for only 20K in dept

This. Each of em is trying to be the next University of Phoenix (who really only took off due to the military).
For Profits are attractive because alot of them have afternoon classes and can have you graduated in two years or less time.
In fact the degree program I graduated from a state school with was created for the express purpose of getting in on those students who were attending For Profits. I see more State Schools creating "Adult Learner" programs in the future to do the same. -
