Colorado Technical University is a accredited for-profit college with both online courses and physical locations in CO, offering Bachelor's and Master's degrees. Their parent company, Career Education Corp., has recently paid out $10M in a settlement concerning allegations of falsified job placement practices, and deceiving students about accreditation. 'Technical' Problems While enjoying a wealth of students from around the country, Colorado Technical University has also come under nationwide scrutiny for a series of complaints, lawsuits, and fraud reports that include alleged incidents of the following: • Refusal of access to transcripts • Fabricated charges in excess of $4k, with no available contact for recourse or appeal. • Deception with regard to career potentials and job placement programs. • Circular bureaucratic transfer being used to deter students from resolving false charges. • Students receiving poor or no customer service. • Failed promises of guidance from a advisor. • Deceptive recruiting tactics, misrepresent of job placement rates and have high rates of student loan default and student withdrawal. • Student debts being sold to multiple collection agencies. • Abuse of US veterans and VA loan programs. • Predatory sales practices. As a recruitment mill, they signed up just about anyone off the streets? i fell victim to there fraud scam, as they lured me into a contract and debt...I never graduate from high school, so they even lied on the application as well just to get the money from "Department Of Education" ! These fraudulent online college degree are straight bogus? For the same price of well established university, Colorado Technical University online sells you a high school level education, and when you realized you have been scammed, they neglect and ignore all of your contacts and requests. Not even a college transcript for what ever credits you did earned, by the way the credits are not even transferable to a local junior college! Then they withdraw out of school and lock you out, and leave you with a debt crisis...
