Where can I transfer from here?

Postby aurashift » February 10th, 2009, 11:10 am

I'm currently a student at ITT. I've heard various stories, but is ITT actually accredited by any respectable institution? Where can I transfer my 52 credits to?
The ITT in Salt Lake is terrible, I'm paying 1800 dollars for a BOOK. Many of the teachers dont give a shit, and the course material is HORRIBLE.

Some places accept the math and composition credits but that is the only ones I have seen accepted into accreditted places.

shit

I saved all my generals classes for last.

I don't like the idea of staying with this school to finish up.

The only loan that I have that is accruing interest is in my moms name, and gets most of my expendable income which keeps the interest low. I'm getting FAFSA, PELL grants, my work pays 5k a year, and the loan that is in my name doesnt accrue interest and doesnt need to be paid til I graduate.

The FA dept. at ITT is hitting me up for more money, so I'm trying to get out of there quick.

I'm talking with the Utah Career College right now, since they're saying they might be able to take ITT creds.

you don't want a for-profit school at all. they are not respected. state and community colleges offer a better education for 4x cheaper.

I have two "degrees" from ITT. The community college I transfered to only accepted one programming course (for a technical Basic credit), and the university I attended later on accepted no credits from ITT.
The only real students attending ITT Tech are the ones that shouldn't be there.
