Not worth the money especially because you have to teach yourself a lot of stuff on your own. Some faculty seem like they care but probably should retire soon due to age and not wanting to focus on new ways to learn and do things. Safe campus as far as crime goes. No on campus housing so that can be a pain.

It was not a good value for your money. I went AET which was two full years M-F including the summer for a two year degree and a radio operators license which is completely useless. The instructors had little to no knowledge and I spent full days just sitting there doing nothing. To top it all off you can miss two weeks including sick people in two years after that it?s about 25 cents a min to make up time.

Decent school. Definitely learned a lot, and had fun learning it. GREAT teaching faculty, but the administrative staff could be a lot better. It's the treatment you get after you're an alumni that's a kick in the pants though. It's ridiculously difficult to get a transcript sent to another school (have to fax a form with your social and credit card information) and there's no electronic delivery system like most schools have. The woman in charge of sending them doesn't ever answer the phone and takes her time sending your transcripts out, despite the $55 fee for rush delivery.
