ITT Technical Institute

Whether you’re looking at the Tucson location that I attended or any other campus across the country, the truth is the same — ITT Technical Institute is a for-​profit diploma mill that teaches outdated information on outdated technology and saddles you with more debt than most doctors.
This school as a whole is a scam and I wish I had taken the time to research it more before enrolling when I was 18. I wasn’t yet aware that there are «schools» that exist to take advantage of their students.
These are not the words of a disgruntled student who dropped out because it was too hard. I was a highest honors student at ITT nearly ever quarter I was there. When I wasn’t highest honors, I was honors.
I left because I realized what I wish I had before. This school is majorly looked down upon in the professional world. What you learn in these walls is not applicable. You will be given an A in this school whether you do the work or not, because they want you to stay and keep paying them their absurd fees for outdated information.
They use fear tactics to enroll students; it is right in their handbook, which you can find online with some digging.
The lawsuits against them are absurd, including a teacher giving a student an «A» on a paper about preparing noodles, when it should have been written about computer sciences. They hand out «A“s because that is what keeps students there. It keeps them happy and unquestioning until they’re out in the real world and realize that there is nothing they can do with the degree.
In fact, they’ll learn that it is wiser to keep their degree off their resume, because God forbid someone notice that you went to school at ITT.
Under no circumstances should you attend this school or anything like it.
