Hello, My son *** *** was enrolled in this school for a couple months We decided to cancel it and was given a confirmation letter along with the amount to be refunded in the amount of $something dollars I’ve been waiting for the check for months now and every time we call are given the “run around” We are still being told that it is processing However, when I called the last time on 10/11/18, I was told that they had no record of me (his mom) on the account I am the person who was paying for everything The refund should be coming to me However, the student services account manager Andrew was extremely rude and would not provide information to me as to when the refund was processed He stated that his supervisors name is Teresa T and that she was unavailable I would simply like a refund since we do not want to be enrolled at the school and according to their policy, we are able to have a 100% refund if we decide to cancel

When I joined Penn Foster College as a student, I was lead to believe that the degree programs were credited and would be accepted by potential employersI have since learned that companies are rejecting the degrees due to the degree's national creditingI have contacted Penn Foster's Student Service Center with the matter and was told that not all companies would except the programs degreesI was not advised of this when I was in the process of signing the agreement with Penn FosterI have canceled out the program after I learned from the student community center that the degrees were being rejectedPenn Foster sent me a letter demanding $for a cancellation settlementI do not feel I owe this amount due to being intentionally misled when I was in the process of signing the contractAt no time during the process was I informed of the problem with the degree's crediting
All of the material for the schooling at Penn Foster is outdated it's not up-to-date it it's it's incorrect and wrong they falsely advertised everything and they don't want to work with you at all I've asked to be unenrolled and they will not unenroll me due to the fact that their criteria is outdated and is not up to par

I'm pretty sure even if anyone doesn't have a disability they would be able to finish in that much time tooBut I've known people in Job Corp with ONE trade had been there for YEARS not doing diddly sqwat cause they think school is the place to play but this is your FUTUREmy granny always told me I could play after I do what is needed to be done in the house and that basically goes for life as wellYou get to play after you do some good deeds or pay your duesBut I pray that I will be able to at least get a job somewhere
This company misrepresents their coursesWhen contacted they state that courses and course credits are transferable to other institutionsI then found out after signing up in fact this was not the case these courses credits ARE NOT transferable to other institutionsAs soon as I discovered this I cancelled the classHowever, upon doing so they try to get you to pay a ridiculous about of money I did not even finish half the program for the simple fact the credit wouldn't transfer even though I was initially told it wouldFurthermore, I never even Received any books from this institution
They use advertising and given even more misleading information when you call and talk directly with a customer service agentThey basically tell you want you want to hear to get you to sign up, then once you sign up you find out the truth

I began taking the exam a second time, and during the exam Penn Foster's page threw an "Unhandled Exception Error" and again I was kicked out of my examI once again contacted the S*** *** technical support and they proce

Imagine my surprise when I bring my transcripts over to my community college and they tell me that they are worthlessFrom August until August of my credits are totally and completely worthless even after I've spent thousands of dollars and timeThis is a despicable scamOne of the first questions I had asked them would be if these transcripts would be transferableI was told yes
Signed up last yearMade my first months payment and just as soon as I attempted to take a class I got confused with the interface and every time I tried to call, no one would get back to meAnother issue I had that discouraged me was the fact they told me I would be able to graduate within a year but my account said the fastest I could graduate was 2021! So advertisementA month went by and I had surgery, a second one to follow in another few months so I tried getting in contact with them again to just have my account cancelled because I had medical bills which I didn’t think would be a problem since I never did a single class or a single assignment
Nothing
Then they sent the full tuition to collection and now my credit score is a disaster!
They never got back to me to let me cancel and they completely lied about the soonest date I’d be able to graduate
