NORTHCENTRAL UNIVERSITY
Fraudulent Activity!
11th of Jun, 2011 by
I hope this message is received by possible applicants of NCU. DO NOT DO IT. It isn't worth it. I am finishing my Doctoral degree and have attended a half a dozen universities. I have never run into the unscrupulous actions this school has been delving out to me. Not to name names, but the people that are supposed to be in place to ensure student's needs and rights are defended, are failing to respond or put corrective action into place. Please don't make the same mistake I made, steer clear of this University!!

I completely agree with all of this. I was a doctoral student until recently. I received shoddy information on completing my Concept Paper that resulted in me getting dismissed from the University. The University closed my account so fast, that I could not even defend myself. After that they continued to take tuition money from me (I was on a 3 month payment plan). I could not even contact them to dispute this. I finally had to involve my credit card company to go after them. While I have no concrete proof of this, I feel that the school actively participates and perpetuates in the conitunual failiing of students to force them to re-take classes over and over again, this is a never ending revenue stream for the university. Most of the mentors at the RSH and DIS stages are incompetent and ill equiped to properly and objectively instruct students. They constantly break their own rules in regards to assignment grading and returning to students. Again, this causes students to have to re-enroll in the same class in order to finish the class (do you, the reader, see a pattern here). They currently have an own going cloass action lawsuit against them in the State of Arizona for student loan fraud. Here are some of the "red flags" I should have seen. First, lax or non-existence entrance requirements. Second, classes at the doctoral level should be challenging, easy "A's" are an indication that they are "stringing" you along through the system...to keep you encouraged to keep going. Third, that the mentors say things like, "Soon you will have that three letter coveted title after your name (PhD)." If a mentor tells you this, he is an arrogant fool who does not know the value of a good education, rather than being an egotist. Avoid this school. Do some research on on line universities. Even if you do happen to graduate, there is too much negative stigma assigned to this school (and many other on line universities).

I attended this university to specialize in marriage and family counseling. I had to constantly fight them for my financial aid and was ultimately given very little in that regard. I could no longer afford the six to seven textbooks the instructors wanted for each class and quit. When I tried to get financial aid to go to another school, I found out Northcentral had put the wrong dates in for financial information and it was extended to April of 2013. Therefore, getting financial aid for another school was impossible until they changed the dates. I called NSLDS and they confirmed this, and told me to call and get them to change the dates. I did call, and they were very dismissive of me, told me according to Federal regulations they didn't have to change the dates and refused to do so. I requested to talk to a supervisor and was told someone would call me back about this. I am still waiting for that call ...
