I have sent a request to Penn Foster College for my transcript to be sent to the *** [redacted] UniversityTwo times they claim that they have and two times [redacted] has not received itThey are receiving other documents that have been sent to them using the same address I have given PFCBecause of PFC I have missed some deadlines from [redacted] and have pain $dollars in application feesThis is unacceptable
I paid hundreds of dollars, and hours of time on end to complete my college back in 2016 even having a newborn child. I have requested my transcript times and times on end and they refuse to send it to me or give me any sort of help, the only help I get is “make sure you type in the correct student numer” which I have done repeatedly. I have no idea how to resolve this issue on my own. Im currently in the process of joining the ***, and I no longer am able to receive E2 for my college credits, and no longer available to get my enlistment bonus. I feel as though all my time, money and effort have been wasted. I do not think I have anymore time to get my transcript in. I just want others to be helped in the future. This is awful for a company to do to people who actually put effort into their careers.
To Whom it May Concern: I am writing this letter with regards to some difficulties I have faced with Penn Foster's Veterinary Technology Program I joined Penn Foster in Dec with the understanding that is was a program designed to work at your own paceI went into the program understanding I would have six years to complete the programI did take my time the first semester, wanting to fully grasp the material while working a full time jobI paid for an extension of the first semester so I would have more time to feel confident with the materialIt was my understanding that this would not be an issue as long as I completed the program by December (which is six years after I began) I took my proctored exams for semester June of and passedI received my application for the second semesterUpon receiving it I was disappointed to find that my monthly payment had increased from $a month to $a monthAt that time it was not possible for me to pay that much as
I signed up for Penn Foster a long time agoI made my first payment, and then was contacted by my original high school who informed me I could come back and finish out the 1/credits I neededI called Penn Foster about a week later to cancel my online schoolingI never logged back into my Penn Foster accountWhen I noticed I was still getting billed for it I tried to log into my account to see if it was still active, it would no longer let me log in
I requested for my account to be closed after the "program" costs quadrupled from what was originally sold to meBecause I had completed so much of the program within the first couple weeks, I was told it wouldn't matter and I would be responsible for the entire cost of the programI am now in collections for over $for a program I requested to be cancelled I was unable to get a hold of anyone at Penn Foster to even discuss my account until I stopped paymentEven my bank was unable to get a hold of anyone which is why they were able to stop payment I even have documentation of trying to get my account cancelled within the first month
Penn Foster has a lot of bad reviews, so I felt like I should share my experience and address some of the other peoples reviewsPenn Foster has always been wonderful for meIt is in your terms and conditions that even if you do not log in you will still pay the tuition, just like any other collegePenn Foster is for people who are self motivated and who push themselves to retain the information on their ownThey do not have actual teachers to do it for you, they provide you with the materials needed in order to teach yourselfIf you are not one of the people who can do this, Penn Foster is not for you I attended Penn Foster years ago when I was in High School, and even though I did not finish with them they were wonderful, I remembered them years later, and now I am pursuing my associates in the study of paralegal degree with themI am able to push myself, and learn the materials instead of paying for the piece of paperI would recommend this school to anyone who wants to learn while obtaining the degree, someone who is reasonable and understands it will not be done for them, and someone who acknowledges their contracts (terms and conditions) before they sign
