"If it was free, I'd go again, just to learn over the old stuff and cram in the new information. I highly suggest anyone who wants to become a massage therapist to highly consider this school."
Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | yes | Overall, I give this school an A. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The teachers are very friendly and smart. |
| Program Reputation | 10 | GREAT! It's ever so popular and growing. I see this school outlasting all the other schools in the area with the same basis. |
| Program Quality | 8 | I was satisfied with the hands-on and science classes taught at this school. I was disappointed with the business portion of school, as I found it very light. |
| Instruction | 9 | The rating would be higher if the business teacher actually taught business. All other teachers provided adequate information and instruction for me to find a job easily in this field right after graduation. |
| How Difficult | 10 | A great success. The workload was just enough to still be able to do it and work at McDonald's for 40 hours a week. It taught me a whole new way to balance my time. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | Very balanced! Half the class was spent on books and the other half was literally hands on; same with the out-of-school work we had to complete. I found it to be a great balance and conducive to the learning process. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 8 | Decently flexible. I was still able to work 40 hours a week while attending school. I was also able to get all of the schoolwork done. However, the points you got off for lateness and absenteeism did really affect me. |
| Academic Facilities | 10 | I believe they had everything I needed to assist in the education for my career. They always had spots available for me to give my practice massages. |
| Social Life | I had a lack of desire to really reach out to classmates. Everyone was very nice, but I was very shy. | |
| Placement Services | 7 | I've heard it is good, but I haven't used it myself. |
| Alumni Network | 7 | I've heard the services are great, but I haven't used them. I haven't used them for shy reasons only. |
