SJVC – Temecula Campus

A year after what happened to my mom I got a message from two students who had the same situation. This school is garbage and a waste of money. Yeah they make it easy to get in but graduating they pick and choose who they want to pass and give extra credit too. Scam alert!

Ok I went there today for my tour and some what an interview. See if the program I choose was the right fit for me. Everyone was friendly. Like all schools. They of course want students to go cause that their job.
Now don’t just go into school not knowing what you want to do. Unless you want to just get your GEDs done then fine.
I had over a year to think about what I want to do and how to prep myself. When I went in, I knew what I wanted to ask and what I know in my experience with school.
My advisor will follow up with me. Which is fine. I was interested in the school and it’s good to follow up. It’s how to get people follow through. Yes, money is the factor but where doesn’t a school does that. It’s all business.
I can’t wait to start school…

I was halfway done with the application process and financial aid when I decided that I didn’t want to take the Medical Assisting program anymore. I called the school to let them know and they transferred me to talk to an advisor. I talked to a girl Tiffany and explained to her why I didn’t want go through with it. She constantly kept asking me and I kept having to explain over again. Soon she started to sound pushy and making me feel obligated to take this program. I didn’t like that. All I wanted was to tell her I’m not interested anymore but she insisted on trying to make me take it. Also I had an advisor who was supposed to be helping me through the whole process. She basically forgot about me and stopped keeping me updated. This school just wants you for your money. Furthermore, I do not like the feel of this school. These advisors are absolute trash and I am so glad I didn’t start anything here.

I am a former student at sjvc. I enjoyed the staff and teachers very much. They were very helpful and cared a lot about us students, but financial aid did not have a clue as to what they where doing the only thing they were concerned about was to get you to sign one the line which is dotted. The two financial aid ladies could not answer my question they were dumb founded as to what I was asking. And for great lakes they charged me $ 58k in just interest alone on a $ 16k loan how does that happen??? People be very careful.

I checked out this school probably about 6 – 7 months ago and was immediately turned off. I talked to Gia V. and she was such a cheesy salesperson. She talked and talked and didn’t express a lot of interest in me. These for profit colleges are a waste of time/​money because they are not regionally accredited; meaning if you want to further your career at a REAL college your credits might not be accepted. Don’t waste your time or money.

I’m looking forward to starting SJVC this July! When I visited the school eveybody was soooo nice and very respective and welcoming. The teachers was great, the campus was very clean.

I was not a student at SJVC but a potential student. The initial friendliness of the school is why I gave them one star. I went through a long process of testing, meeting with financial aid, updating my resume, writing an essay, obtaining HS and college transcripts, obtaining a letter of recommendation and a list of references to become enrolled into the RT program just to be denied at interview time. I was discriminated against due to my status as a full-​time working single mother.
The director would not accept me into the program, even with my qualified experience, based on the fact that I work more than 20 hrs a week. although my work schedule would not interfere with the school schedule, because I work nights, He recommended that I cut back from working full-​time to part time. This was not an option for me because I am a single mother.
I put a lot of time and thought into going back to school in a full-​time program and am more than capable of juggling work and school and being a mother but the director tried to run down every scenario with me about how my child would get sick, I would get sick from lack of sleep and how my car would break down.
Basically because the school is under provisional accreditation they are very selective on who they will allow into certain programs. If they believe you can be a high risk of not graduating on time, they may not accept you.

This school was a great choice for me. It offers a fast pace learning environment with quick results.
I wanted to make a change in my life, starting with a real education and real training for a career path was the choice for me.
You have to be dedicated to yourself to make anything in life successfully, why shouldn’t your school be the same way.
I have been surrounded by dedicated teachers and staff!
I couldn’t have picked a better place to attend.
Real life decisions for real life people!!!

This school is amazing. The atmosphere is just what you need to complete your goals. I am really enjoying the classes and teachers. I have been looking for a school for about 3 years and when I found sjvc I knew it was the one for me.

Please don’t waste your time and money. This school is a joke and all they want is your money. They constantly give you false information about everything. Half of the students want to withdrawal!

I am so thnkful that I found SJVC! I’ve made amazing friends, learnded so much, and enjoy and am thankful for all the staff here. If it wasn’t for this school, I wouldn’t be furthing my education even further. I will almost be done in a month, and will be soon after attending CBU for RN. I truely am going to miss everyone at SJVC. This is a place I will never forget, and neither will you, if you choose to come here. Everyone here, is so encouraging and helpful. You will not regret coming here, I didn’t.
