Anthem College, Sacramento Reviews (4)

Review: I am a former graduate of High Tech Institute aka Anthem, I have spent the last 15 years unable to work at the top of my field due to the fact that I was tricked into believing that the school was properly accredited, I am unable to sit for the required test to this date. On top of that now that I wish to further my education I am unable to get an official copy of my transcript. I have spent the last 6 months trying to find someone who can help me. I've been given countless phone numbers of which I've never actually spoken to a human, Ive been given email addresses that result in NO response. It seems this company dumped their students a long time ago not just with the recent closures. My advice... GO ANYWHERE BUT TO ANTHEM!Desired Settlement: I attended school and graduated with a 4.0 average, I believe I at least deserve a little customer service in the form of help with acquiring my transcript. I've spent 15 years dealing with my horrible decision. At least help me by allowing me to move ahead!

Review: I was a student of Anthem College in 2010 and 2011. My tax preparer made a mistake in my 2010 tax return. I have to amend it and resend to IRS. I have been requesting for my 1098 T(Tuition Statement) since last month. I was told by the Campus Administrative Assistant , that he has forwarded my request to the Anthem cooperate office . I was given a phone number to the cooperate office where no one answers the phone and no one returns the call despite leaving messages. He also told me to request it from IRS. If I do request from IRS , I will have to pay $50.00 and processing time will be 50 to 70 days. I went to Anthem College in Sacramento and I believe they should be able to provide me with the statement at the school or obtain a copy for me from the cooperate if that's the case. Until today 05/20/14 , I have not received anyTuition Statement. My e mails are not even answered now. I do not think I should be getting a run around from the college that I attended. All I am requesting is a print out of 1098-T for 2010 , so I can amend and submit my tax in a timely manner. Thank you[redacted]Desired Settlement: Requesting a copy for 1098-T(Tuition Statement ) for 2010.

Review: I signed up for Anthem college in January of 2013. I didn't have problems with the school until May of that year. It all started when a student came running out of her classroom and ran right up to me yelling and getting in my face, her teacher saw this and came out in the hallway put her hand on my shoulder and shoved me back. This teacher then emailed my teacher saying that I had attacked her student even though she saw her run out of the class and run to me. I had my friend there who witnessed the entire event. Nothing was ever done about this and I was confronted by my teacher about the situation. In may I also had sent off through the school a self query which was needed to process my Pharmacy Technician License through the State Board Of California. The woman who processing all of the Pharmacy Tech papers and information was fired in September without warning and knowledge to the students. She was replaced by the head director of career center, her name is [redacted]. The next incident happened in October of 2013 while I was doing my extern at Folsom prison. I repeatedly called [redacted] throughout the whole month and never once received a call back even though I asked for one in the voicemails I left. On october 29th I received a letter from the State Board saying my application was done wrong and that I had 60 days to respond or my account would be terminated. November 7th Went to anthem resubmitted self query with notarizer. November 12th Data Bank shows self query was sent to Anthem. December 2nd I called mary asking if she received the Self Query she informed me she hadn't but that everyone elses had shown up. December 16th took the national PTCB test and failed. It was information I knew nothing about. December 24th called the school and asked if they received the self query yet and they said no. December 27th I go in and talk to [redacted] director of anthem. Take practice PTCB test with him and fail. [redacted] is now fired and [redacted] the head of anthem have been fired I don't know why.Desired Settlement: Dealing with this school has become such a nightmare and has caused me to go on anti anxiety medications. I didn't sign up for a school that guarantees job placement for life while their sending out Craigslist job ads for Pharmacy Clerk position when I'm a Technician and these jobs are in Galt and Lodi when I live in Fair Oaks! No one at this school has any idea of what they are doing or what is going on in this school. I did not get my moneys worth and want a refund for my entire tuition.

Response:

Anthem College, Sacramento appreciates the opportunity to respond to issues raised in Ms. [redacted]’s correspondence to the Revdex.com. We take the comments of our graduates very seriously and believe that this response will address each of the three areas of her complaints.

With regards to the altercation that is alleged to have happened in May 2013, between Ms. [redacted] and another student. Our campus has no record or an incident involving Ms. [redacted], and has found no evidence of subsequent approaches by the campus faculty. If this issue did demand administrative attention, Ms. [redacted] could have followed the Student Grievance policy posted in the campus catalog at that time.

In respect to the accusation that Anthem College, through staff turnover, was not attentive to Ms. [redacted]’s pursuit of licensure, the “self-query” discrepancy was received on October 31, 2013 and immediately relayed by Ms. [redacted] to Ms. [redacted]. Phone messages were left and multiple attempts yielded a contact with the student on November 14, 2013.

Our office confirmed that we worked diligently with the student on the submission of her self-query and followed- up repeatedly on her behalf with the NPDB. The two weeks’ time frame when the self-query was with our school did not prohibit Ms. [redacted] from completing the Pharmacy Licensure process. Additionally, not obtaining licensure with the NPDB did not prohibit Ms. [redacted] from seeking employment.

We believe that this response addressed all of Ms. [redacted]’s concerns and we as a graduate we will continue to support her in her career pursuits.

Review: Anthem has yet to issue my check. According to guidelines I have completed the courses and received my diploma. I spoke with Fafsa Financial Aid and was told they paid anthem 3,200 so far, my award letter states 5,600? When I was laid off with [redacted] our schooling was being paid for through edd. Not exceeding 10,000. For anthem to receive financial aid on my behalf was confusing if I wasn't going to get during my duration at this institution. Others have complained of this issue but never went as far as I'm going with this complaint. I GRADUATED June 4TH RECEIVED DIPLOMA JUNE 6TH IT IS NOW July 8TH 2014. Was told by financial aid 4-6 weeks from the time of submission and another 4-6 weeks before they issue to me. Doesn't sound right at all. I would like my financial aid money which has been paid according to Fafsa.Desired Settlement: Refund based on my award letter.
