DO NOT ATTEND THIS SHAMBLES OF A SCHOOL. If I was able to give them less than one star I would. The lack of concern and empathy for the students is unreal. A graduation was hosted with each student getting 5 admission tickets. So somewhere a HUGE ball was dropped graduation night. At least 75+ people were turned away at the door. Adults, children and elderly because the Pontchartrain center was at capacity. How could it be at capacity if everyone entering needed a ticket? Was the venue not big enough? I HIGHLY DOUBT This. Someone at blue cliff royal F'd. It was so incredibly disheartening to see the looks on graduates faces as they left their own graduation. Can you blame them tho? So much hard work put into their programs and not their families cant cheer them on from the crowd. Absolutely RIDICULOUS. Blue cliff you owe these graduates and their families a redo. My heart goes out to each graduate that weren't able to celebrate the success of their hard work. So on top of tuition going up, supplies given to students going down you allow this to happen on their special night? Like be so for real. ALSO why tf was there a graduation for two years held together. Seems to me like money is being pocketed by someone somewhere. For the tuition that is being charged to these students the bare minimum would be for each year to have their own graduation. We are not living in covid times anymore so what sense did that make?

I enrolled into this school on 7/12/21. However I completed my courses, went to internship, but did not receive my diploma, didn’t attend to graduation because no one let us know when graduation was when they said they would reach out, I didn't get to take my test after I reached out multiple times, and didn't receive other things that is covered in my tuition. Very disorganized

I graduated Blue Cliff College in Arkansas. The Arkansas location has since closed down. I've been trying to get a hold of someone at any of the campuses to help me in getting my transcripts so I can work in the state I'm moving to. NOBODY ANSWERS. NOBODY CALLS YOU BACK! I've called different departments and there is NEVER anyone answering the phone. The only option available is to drive to another state in order to physically be there to try and speak to someone. THIS IS REDICULOUS! The Arkansas location needed to be shut down as the man who was running it wasn't fit for the position. Now, I'm questioning the other locations as well. *********Update******** I got a hold of the Brian guy whose email has been given to anyone with the negative review. I got a hold of Brian and he sent my information over to somebody else and they have executed my needs pretty promptly. My review of the Arkansas location still stands. The man, the older gentleman who was the head of the entire college, he was not fit for the position. Position. A very compassionate, human being. And completely unfair to the massage part of what they offered. Versus the other medical classes available. Though I met a lot of great teachers. And I'm very appreciative of those teachers. So for those who helped me in getting my transcripts, thank you so very much!
