Studying Massage Therapy (completion in 2006)




• 5/2/2011
"MBC is a good school. I would recommend the massage therapy program to anyone."
Ratings are on a 1-10 scale
| Characteristic | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Would Recommend? | yes | Again, MBC provides all the tools necessary to become a successful massage therapist. Graduates of MBC seem to be more successful than graduates of other local massage schools. |
| Program Reputation | 7 | Anytime I tell someone I graduated from MBC they only have positive comments about the program. Having a variety of instructors really enriches the program. |
| Program Quality | 10 | Morgantown Beauty College provided me with all the tools necessary to be a great massage therapist. I was fortunate to have many instructors from my field in school. |
| How Difficult | 6 | There was not a lot of work to do outside of class. The subject matter was challenging and kept me very interested. |
| Hands-On vs. Bookish | MBC provided a perfect mixture of book and hands-on learning. We would learn from the book then apply what we learned. | |
| Schedule Flexibility | 6 | There is a set schedule for classes. The school did allow flexibility in choosing when we worked our logged hours. |
| Academic Facilities | 10 | Professors were extremely accessible and really cared about the success of the students. MBC provided me with all of the tools necessary to be a successful massage therapist. |
| Social Life | 10 | The school did not have any sports teams. I became very close to my classmates since we all worked together to become therapists. |
| Placement Services | 3 | I have not been in contact with the school for job placement. They promise to assist in placement, but it is something a new therapist must actively pursue alone. |
| Alumni Network | 2 | I have only spoken with advisors from the school once since graduation. I remember they have a job placement bulletin board, but I have not taken advantage of it. |
Review your current or past school and help others make better career decisions.
