useless education modules
I signed a purchase agreement to get educational material to do the Lpn to Rn mobility on October 16th 2009, studied for hours took the Anatomy and Phsysiology exam paid 345.00 and did not pass. The material I studied did not even come close to what was given to me on the exam that took 3 hours. Now I am required to pay another 345.00 to take it again. Why should I stdy the same material again, that will not even help me pass. I was told by the smooth talking salesman that it would take about 16 weeks to study for A and P, Excelsior College rep. told me it would take a good year. what is going on here. I am not going to pay anymore on this loan that I am not getting anything for. What do I do now, I do not want a mark against my credit. JoAnne Luke 7659 St Croix Trail North branch minnesota 55056

Scam Alert
In May of 2008 I allowed an "advisor" from The College Network to come into my home and give me his spill on all the great advantages of obtaining my RN license online from TCN. I should have been smart and done my research on this company. I must say, they employ some GREAT SALESMEN. This man had me convinced that this was right up my alley as I have always been an independent studier. After a couple of months I realized what a mess I had gotten myself into. I have only received one module. It has been three years and i have not used any more of their study materials or online modules. This company has recieved thousands of my dollars for NOTHING!! I have been forced to close my bank account to stop the automatic monthly drafts and in doing so have ruined my credit. This company is a FRAUD!! They prey on hard working people and make promises they know full well they can't fulfill. I am disgusted that they are still in business. I too would love to be a part of a class action lawsuit to put these scammers out of business for good!!

money not refunded
I signed up 15 months ago and have been satisfied so far-have taken and passed 4 exams with TCN material. My complaint is twofold-both having to do with money.
First, TCN has been paid in full for my materials and tests. I got my University to give me credit for a course that TCN didn't think I'd get, so they agree they owe me a refund of $730. I have been trying to get the money since January. In April they fianlly sent me a document in writing agreeing that they owe me, and still no money-it is now June. Worse yet when I tried to call them at 6:23 pm EST they had a recording that said I had reached them outside of normal business hours, which supposedly are 8am to 9 pm EST Mon-Thurs-today is a Tuesday, 6:23pm EST. So where are they?
Second, I referred a coworker to them. She signed up and has taken two courses and tests. They are supposed to be paying me a $200 referral fee, which takes 90 days from when the person signed up(they don't tell you that up front). The 90 days was up May 8th, I was promised to have the money by May 28th, and guess what? Watch out for this scam!

Lies
The College Network Reps definitely need to know the rules and regulations of TNC. My wife was told that she could get out of her classes if she decided to take her first class and she couldn't do it. The rep said it would be "no problem". Well, she decided that she would feel more comfortable in an actual classroom setting so we called to cancel. "Well, there is a 4 class minimum that you have to take." the rep told us. He then gave us a 1-800 number to call. The academic advisers informed us that we had to pay back the entire loan! Who is lying to us???? We have been told 3 different things! So, just be aware of all of the fine print and don't let your rep come in and sale you this college. Take your time. Also, always check out the BBB website. Don't make the same mistake we did. Hopefully we can settle this dispute, I just don't want to pay $8, 000 for 1 class!

No degree
The College Network has charged my credit card for a program I never even utilized. I was unable to stop the monthly charges and ended up paying thousands of dollars over the past 5 years. When I tried to cancel the program 3 years ago the representative offered no resolution. I was also shipped several books that look like downloaded copies of pages from Wikepedia. This ad continues to run in some nursing journals. Why? I would like to talk to one person who completed the course and was actually awarded a BSN. My credit is now ruined and even though I've nearly paid off the credit card the course was charged to, the effect of the financial devastion linger with me to this date. Now that I see others with the same complaint I really feel duped.

They are con artists and frauds
You are right about the fast talking salesman, and lies, and rude and ruthless customer assistance. I signed up with The College Network in March. They came to my home and did a pretty good job of explaining everything. The salesman told me that even though I signed up for the bsn program; I could change to the adn at any time. Ok that sounded great. I knew about the 3 day cancellation.
I got a letter from the College Network a little while later stating that my gpa was not high enough to get into Indiana and that I would have to pay more money for another course, and I would have to enroll in Indiana and take this prereq and this prereq and I think fitness or something in order to get the gpa to get in the nursing program. Shouldn't that have been determined before the started making me pay 9000?
So, I didn't want to jump through the former hoops to get into Indiana nursing program and I called the College Network to switch to the adn program. I inquired as to when the excess amount would be removed from my loan amount, and was swiftly and rudely informed that it would not. Of course I protested, but like many others, I was informed that no matter what I had to pay. They did say that they would credit me for future classes, but I refuse to do anything further with the Company.
Now, This is for Rick! The College Network Rep.
Before you get in touch with me and tell me that I am wrong. I do not wish to hear your bullshit, generic response. No matter what you say or how you say it. This is wrong. It is ok to step down to a lesser program that costs about 3000 less but it is not ok to refund said 3000. I HAVE MET CRIMINALS WITH BETTER INTEGRITY THAN YOUR COMPANY!
Just in case you can't find me in your Database, My name is Danetta Kerns. I am curious as to what bullshit you can come up with because I have never been late on these ridiculous payment.
Oh yeah and you are going to hell for using a Christian Credit union to rip people off. I called them today and asked how it is possible that after a loan has been issued that you could add more to the balance. She said that she didn't know unless it was in the contract. I am sure it is slithering around in there somewhere, but I did inform the bank rep of your unscrupulous practices.

Big scam
This program is nothing but a big scam with alot of fradulent promises i caanot believe they are still in business does anyone out there know what to do about this company, very frustrating to have to pay for something i did not use. they send my account to collections damaging my credit and on trying to call for customer service you can hardly ever get a hold of anyone. during signing up they promised a tutor which they are not able to provide, we work hard for our money and for the tune of 5, 200 the service should be satisfactory.
