    Former Student (MA program) Mobile, Al Please if you are looking to further your career in the medical field, stay away from this school and its program. The school and program are full of lies, scams and fraud. False advertising at its finest because you will not experience what they offer and advertise. You will basically teach yourself specially when it comes to clinicals your clinicals should be accounted for during externship. Seems to me the school only appreciates the money and numbers coming in. If you don't pay when they want you to there are consequences and they will not work with you because they do not care about your career or the fact you are an actual human being, they see you as a number and dollar signs. They condone in students and some teachers to bully other students and when mentioned about it the teacher will lie for the students or pull those students to the side and joke about it and not fix the situation. Being a witness and almost being a victim myself. I have also witnessed other students quitting the program or moving to the day classes. I myself would not go to school or almost gave up myself because I was tired of a negative environment. They are money hungry thieves specially when it comes to their own mistakes and expect me to pay back their mistake they did, which this mistake has cost me to even receive my diploma, *********** and to be able to walk across the stage coming up here in November. After various phone calls and speaking to 5 different people and still told no due to their mistake. Not only have I been a victim to their fraud, but they are not allowing my husband to walk and saying he owes money as well. Fortis college false, scam and frauds. Fortis College Mobile Al, take accountability for your actions.
