Cincinnati State Technical and Community College

"JAYNE MARTIN DRESSING - A disrespectful, lying , childish , unprofessional clown who doesn’t take her job or students success seriously because she is a stagnant under achiever who is doing the college a disservice by working there .. she is the worst thing about Cincinnati state"

"I attended 2 semesters here which went well and allowed me to complete half of my credit hours. When I first applied to the school my first advisor assured me I could complete my program completely online, as I don’t live closer enough to commute daily. When I went to register for my third semester I was informed one of my classes would have to be taken in person which I was annoyed at since I was assured I would be fully online. I did find a way to make the commute for that class once a week, and was told the rest of the classes I would definitely be able to do fully online. The day before one of my classes was about to start, I noticed it was changed from online to in person. Then I noticed 2 of the classes had changed like that. I contacted my instructor but didn’t hear anything back so had to miss the first class. I knew I wouldn’t be able to complete my degree without these 2 courses but I wasn’t able to commute, so I looked into transferring and ended up having to transfer because I never heard back from the instructor. The day after I completed my transfer the instructor emailed back and said I might be able to take the classes online, which isn’t even a full answer and was too late at this point. I was also told I would receive CState Accelerate which would cover whatever balance is left after my financial aid. I kept waiting for my balance to be covered by them and contacted them multiple times asking when the remaining balance would be taken care of and they would never give me a date and it ended up showing I owed 1000 dollars which I couldn’t afford as I was told it would be covered. Also was a nightmare when trying to transfer as the school was withholding my transcripts so I couldn’t send them to the new school. After I dropped all my courses the school also told me I would owe a fee for dropping them which is ridiculous because it’s not my fault that the instructor made the courses impossible for me to take last minute. Overall horrible experience, the staff who answers the phone are some of the rudest and least helpful people I’ve ever met and the faculty likes to deceive students and potential students. They will tell you whatever you want to hear so you will go there and change it last minute with no remorse. Would never recommend for anyone. Edit: They are also charging me money to drop my courses now even though the website says 100% refund the first week."

"I don’t recommend the LPN program the instructors are RACIST also very LAZY once you get to 102 don’t want to see you succeed ignore emails don’t get enough clinical experience also you would never know what you gotten on your exams because of that they will fail you!…if your not doing well they will have no hope for you to succeed also everything is early mornings so if you have children and you a single mother/father don’t attend this program! If you are black don’t attend this program choose another school you will be wasting your money attending this program period.The times that children got to be at school you got to be in class the same time. Also lecture is you come to class listen to your instructor read the entire power point to you tell you to get on ati THATS IT!!! THAT IS NOT TEACHING some people don’t learn like that LECTURE should be online we gotta come to school wasting our gas. One more thing is you fail twice you got to wait out a year go to another school you have a better chance succeeding elsewhere to be a nurse with instructors that actually want students to succeed and as bad as they need nurses these instructors don’t give a care about you succeeding or not at clinical one of the instructors said: ( I don’t care if they not doing anything we still will get paid). Everything here written is the truth."

"Good luck contacting anyone. None of their offices answer their phones and they don't respond to email within a reasonable time. They also place an unusual number of registration holds on your account so good luck trying to register. A non-degree seeking student will repeatedly have holds placed on their account and then you'll need to jump through hoops trying to contact someone to remove the holds."

"Horrible school. The academic advisors are very unprofessional, unpleasant, and rude. They'll pretty much tell you anything even if it's a lie, this school is a joke and by far one of the worst decisions I've ever made. I would not recommend anyone that's serious about their education to attend this pos!!!"
