    I have the same complaint as everyone else (Ambler campus). My daughter paid tuition in full. She still has not taken her boards. All she needs is them to release an affidavit. It's been 2 years almost since graduating. We have sent numerous emails, one gets answered then they change directors (every other day). This is very disheartening and ridiculous. She is trying to have a future and they just will not let that happen. Something needs to be done about this school.

    i am currently a student at the Stroudsburg locaton and I did not read the reviews before I signed up. They give you 5 weeks of online teaching before you ever get to touch someone. The financial office is totally F$&(^% up. Kadi Torres has no idea what she is doing. They don't keep accurate records of payments and she barely gets back to you when you call or email. You don't want to come here. The worst is that they give you the bare minimum(300) hours and their Pivot Point program is not on track with the state boards. RUN.

    Please please go to another school ! This school has ran through over 5 teachers and they don’t teach anything! They are racist and just want you to pay! People have had COVID multiple times and they never shut down, clean or even aware the students that someone has COVID! They don’t care about your health or your education

    Esthetic student-DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT waste your time and money this school has the most unprofessional Director (Eric) if still employed running this school. They were short staffed and had one amazing Teacher Ms.Gia who was teaching 3 different levels of students and trying her best while ERIC just locked his self in his office with his damn dog. He barely spoke and made little to no eye contact until it was time to make a payment. I'm almost 2months from graduating out of there and found out from Pals that they never sent my transcripts for me to get my temporary license or even apply for my state when I called to see why I was greeted with a third party answering service who could only put a request for a call back. I emailed texted and Called Eric and no nothing I email other staff and was told I didn't make my last payment in which I did to Eric the last day Thank God I kept all my receipts. I sent them all my proof and was told they will investigate what is there to investigate if I provided all my receipts. The lack of compassion and ownership in this situation should tell you this is not the place for you they need to be shut down don't become a victim of this chaos
