ITT Technical Institute

I can confirm that this school is a joke. The teachers aren’t bad… the class sizes are small (that’s true). They hold your hand and walk you through every little thing (schedule… assignments… ect…). All this being said, the price is certainly not even close to worth it. If you are serious about a degree in any of the art programs they offer, you are better off going to the Art institute in San Francisco or if you aren’t confident in your abilities go to a community college. Whatever you do, do not waste your time with this school or any like it.

I’ve been going to this ‘school” for the past 3 semesters. I’ve been to community colleges and I can say that this is a very relaxed educational training environment. I’m prior military/​veteran and this is almost like taking a school in a military environment. The instructors want you to pass and ultimately it is, like with all education, up to you to make sure you get the work done and pass with an acceptable grade.
With that said, I’ve had my share of «life» incidents where I had to drop from a few classes and currently taking a course over for the 3^rd time. I’ve noticed the difference in my current instructor where he takes the time to help you out specifically with what is needed. I’m not saying the other instructors I’ve had didn’t do the same thing but it’s just a different learning environment and it suits me better. The instructor is just a little more helpful to go over things differently and in my opinion, I have definitely understood the information that is being put out a lot more than the previous semesters.
But I’ve noticed over the past 3 semesters, the instructors just don’t have the extra something to want to teach. I’ve been to San Joaquin Delta College and experienced a year and a half of instructors there so there is a clear difference. I don’t know what it is, maybe it could be pay, mundane teaching requirements, etc. I’m thinking maybe they have to follow a strict way to teach the material where after doing semester after semester it just gets old. Also I’ve noticed about half the students in my classes are really immature about the learning process. Sure they get the material done but there is a clear lack of respect for the teaching instructor.
I can’t say anything about the financing part of it because I don’t pay for my schooling, the government pays that part of it so I have no complaints.
I’ve read quite a few web articles talking about how the degrees are worthless when you get out, I’ll just have to find out when I’m done with this school. One thing I know is none of these credits will transfer over to a regular state college — that is the shitty part. I will not continue with ITT Tech when I have to pay for it myself, it just way to expensive. I really don’t know how all these young kids are doing it even with the financial aid. When I saw how much my whole tuition was for the whole program — I just about shit myself. It was a lot! Also, why does my pell grant money have to come to ITT Tech first? I don’t get that at all.
I’d recommend looking at state community colleges because if you are looking to go here chances are you are looking at an associates or to earn credits to transfer to a state university. Just looking into the community college in your area, that’s just my opinion.

I am an alumnus of CNS, and a current student of ISS.
I am very proud of my alma mater.

To the Unilocaler saying this school is a joke:
I’m sorry you feel that way but ITT is not for everyone. How’s Delta working out for you? or did you stick with your YouTube education?

Save yourself some money and go to a community college or even a university. This school is a joke.
Most of the instructors are just part-​time instructors that go there after their full-​time job. Most are just learning just like the students. I learned more from youtube and other students than from the instructors. If I wouldn’t have done my own research I wouldn’t have learned anything. If an instructor asks you how you did something then you know you’re in trouble. There were countless times the instructors asked how I did something so he can show his next class.
Want to waste some time and be pissed off. Go to the financing department. They are guaranteed to mess something up. Can you sign this and this??? One week later I get a call that I never turned in my paperwork. Ummm… I just signed it in front of your face the other day dumb*ss!
«Hi, I just graduated from ITT! Now I can get my foot in the door and start my new career! YAY!» LOL OMG…
Thank you youtube… I learned a lot from you.
