On or around 04/09/2015, The College Network, Inc and their Program Advisor, Jeryl W***, fraudulently misrepresented to my mother and I that The College Network's online nursing degree program could make a reasonable accommodation to accommodate my disability (severe testing anxiety and attention deficit disorder), by allowing me to take final exams for my online nursing degree courses over the computer with a relaxed time limit Relying upon W***'s representations, I agreed to enroll in the online nursing degree programAt the conclusion of the first course, W*** and The College Network reneged on their promises and refused to provide the accommodation To date, The College Network has refused all attempts to resolve the matter Recently, I became aware that MrW***'s contact information, which he provided to me at our 04/09/meeting, is no longer valid Neither The College Network, nor MrW***, has since provided any updated contact information

Last April was a check process issued for reimbursement for class "Life Span 3" Currently I havent received this check! I have called several times and either disconnected or transfer to another agency for their customer service and all they can tell me is that the check is being processed! I have also emailed the college network as told to amd never received an answer!! Email is [email protected]
The check should be the amiunt of $
I would like to recieved this money as promised!!
Thank you

I have been using College Network since In the beginning I would receive my exam fee checks within a couple weeksThe last check I received was in August after waiting monthsNow I have been waiting since SeptemberI have tried to call, email, and mail themI tried to cancel and get my money back

I have MULTIPLE reimbursement checks due to me and have been waiting for months to have them reimbursed I have multiple more to submit as I progress in the RN process I am afraid of getting my test fees back I am unable to speak to anyone about this issue I just keep being told to submit a request through [email protected] I need a resolution on this matter

Looking into this Revdex.com website, I have found that others have the same problem I haveI have paid extra, with interest on my loan for a service to provide test fee checks as needed when I am about to testI have been delayed in my testing and now have to work extra to pay for something I have already paid for in a loanThis is not to mention the fact, since I have been delayed, Excelsior has charged me an extra dollars for not meeting my quota of credits last year

I signed a contract with The College Network in April,I financed the testing fees so I would not have the burden of saving for my required tests to achieve a nursing degreeI was instructed to call and request a check for my tests when I was ready to go to a testing center for the examWhen I requested it I was told it would take up to weeks, it's been a yearI have repeatedly called and now there is no option to speak to anybody, only a recording instructing callers to send an e-mail I sent multiple e-mails with NO response the last being April,I have the sent e-mails saved Also, I financed on-line modules and printed textbooks that I was instructed to request when I was ready I received the first one and now the academic support line says they no longer send book because it's available to print on-line It was available when I received the first one so I don't understand how they can change their practice after I paid $each for modules I have to cont

Dear Sir/Madam
Thank you for reviewing my complaint regarding TCNI have
read the offer made to me by Tpay off the remaining loan I have with
*** Financial Credit Union in the approximation amount of $I am
rejecting the offer based on these,
TCN lied to me
when I initially contacted them on the 7/27/about their problem with
California BRNI believed that they did that so that I will continue to make
the payment on the loanSecondly, they used my time by pretending that their
program is still approved by California BRNWhen *** came to my house, he never
told me that their classes cannot be transferred to other schools/colleges
within United StatesAll these, boiled down to dishonesty and deceitfulnessI
have never defaulted in making my monthly payment of $from 2011-
To make long story
short, the only offer I will accept from TCN is 50% refund of the money I paid towards the loan, and
the termination of the loan balance of 3,from *** Financial Credit UnionI want my name taken off from anything about TCNThis company is a rip-offI also want my name cleared from any
loan arrangement with *** Financial

Revdex.com:I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and have determined that the response would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.Thank you for the same exact response on two separate occasions with absolutely no resolution, but the problem is not the fact that I signed up, the problem is the fact that you have not applied the downward adjustment to my loan. You are still charging me the full amount of a bachelors degree in nursing when I signed up for an associates degree in nursing. There is almost a difference. I continue to be told the same thing, that you are contacting the accounting department. It will be a year in July. Where is my money, where is the banks money, and when is the credit going to be applied?Regards,*** ***

I want to know if there is any hope recovering my money I spent for this program that did not help me they way I was told I was unable to cancel my contract when I decided I wanted toFive day cancellation period was not disclosed The modules did not help when it came to testing24/support was not available as promisedThe Universities they mentioned are not "partnered" with themT

If I was only given business days to cancel, I must add that days is not enough time to even become familiar with navigation of all of the website's different areas nor is it enough time to complete one lesson of a learning moduleLike stated before, the resource center is not a reliable source for help with the learning modulesIt would only be a reliable source for help if the representative for the resource center had a degree in the specific area of discussionOnce again, I am a unsatisfied customer and I deserve a refundNo customer of any business should have to settle with customer service of this sort

To Whom it May Concern,
I am contacting the Revdex.com to report fraudulent claims made by The College Network and to dispute my contract with this companyI currently work as a Licensed Practical Nurse and I'm interested in pursing higher education to better myselfI was contacted by a representative at The College Network and given information about their LPN-BSN programI agreed to speak with a recruiter about the program, and I believe this recruiter mislead me and purposely provided me with information for her own gain (commission)When I suspected that I had been mislead, I researched The College Network further and discovered thousands of complaints from other consumersI have read that the potential consumer meets with the recruiter in person and the contract is then discussed The recruiter that contacted me stated she wanted to review the program information with me over the phone rather than in person because she was "busy setting up for a family p

I financed all fees related to obtaining credits towards a college degree including testing fees that were to be mailed to me when requested after completion of online course to pay testing centerI have been paying on said loan and requested my first exam fee in October (possibly November) I was told it would be sentAfter waiting I called back and was told their financial department was "behind"Since then I have called multiple times (now there is a message when you call to e-mail any concerns) and emailed requesting these funds and have received no return response
Over year...no response, no funds, no test, no credit for the exam and I am still paying almost $a month
