Jimmy Cathey Looking for details on the veterans program there and the lady who answered the phone was extremely rude and hung up on me. Maybe the classes and programs are better than the customer service but overall experience trying to get into the school was absolutely awful.

Collin Olds Mrs Kimberly is the best!! She will get you exactly to where you need to be for your studies and is so helpful all throughout the attending process. As a graduate I highly recommend contacting her for future enrollment and any related issues while attending.

Olu Ken If there was a zero rating, I would give ECPI. As a former student of ECPI Universitys online program, I feel compelled to share my disappointing experience and warn others against attending this institution.
A few reasons I will discourage students from attending ECPI is the disorganization at ECPI. They leave you ill-prepared for the job market. Course materials are often outdated or poorly structured, making it difficult to follow the curriculum. The administration seems to be in constant flux, with little consistency in policies or procedures. This lack of structure extends to the online learning platform, which is confusing and not user-friendly. There are few times where I left a notes on the end of class survey, saying I wont recommend this school to anyone, and no one cared to reach out to me to ask why.
The tuition at ECPI is outrageously high, especially considering the quality of education provided. You pay exorbitant costs for no just course compared to what other universities deliver. Starting the program you will be told a different cost than when leaving the school, they leave you in a huge unsuspected debt. It is all a money-making organization that is not focused on delivering quality education. To confirm this financial team was changed a few times during my time with ECPI.
They lure you in with promises of financial aid covering some expenses, only to later inform you of outstanding balances
The cost-benefit ratio is severely skewed, and youll likely end up paying far more than you would at a traditional university for a less valuable degree and you would be left in debt.
ECPIs recruitment team employs pushy sales tactics to get you enrolled quickly, often before youve had a chance to fully consider your options, be warned of the aggressive recruitment tactics. They pressure you to make hasty decisions, glossing over important details about the program and its true costs.
Once enrolled, the lack of support is appalling. It takes ages to get a response when you reach out to a supervisor for help. You have to schedule an appointment and sometimes it never happens. I have been left to fend for myself a few times, especially in the online programs even when I had to work. It wasn’t easy going through this school program.
The career services department is particularly disappointing, offering little more than a cursory glance at job boards rather than providing meaningful assistance.
While some professors are dedicated, many seem disinterested or ill-equipped to teach their subjects effectively
In the online program, its not uncommon to encounter instructors who are unresponsive to student queries or provide minimal feedback on assignments. There are also some dubious academic standards.
This school approach leaves you ill-prepared for the job market. After thoroughly researching and experiencing ECPI University firsthand, I strongly advise against attending this institution. The combination of poor organization, excessive costs, aggressive sales tactics, lack of support, and questionable academic standards make it a risky investment in your education and future career. Prospective students would be better served by exploring other, more reputable universities.
With your response, I still feel ECPI deserves less than a one-star rating. I am surprised you are disappointed. Looking at previous reviews. Let people judge if your response sound like you are trying to help or listen to the concern? You want me to reach out to you via email? when I have completed a few class surveys that no one reads, which is why I said the school doesnt care how you feel, its all about the money. I am a former student of the school, if you value my concern, you have ways to reach me. This review is the best way I can reach out. I am sorry. Thanks.
