To where can I complain because my college is dishonest?

Postby anglesey34 » Thu Mar 15, 2012 3:17 pm

When I enrolled in my college, Full Sail University, I asked if I could take Photography or Cinematography classes, they said "NO because I am in a writing program and photography and cinematography would be outside my program"; yet all of my classes require me to make videos.
they told me I would be sent ALL the supplies I need to compete my courses, but then they told me to use my video camera to make videos. They will not send me a video camera.
When I asked about my financial aid they told me I would receive two (living expense) checks for x amount, but then they sent me one check for y amount(less)
When I asked for an itemized accounting of all I am charged, they only send me a financial aid statement.
When I ask how much will I owe if I withdraw. they will only tell me after I withdraw.
Some of my lecture materials are WIKIPEDIA articles.
They will not provide direct answers to many questions and I feel I am being misled. To whom can I complain that will take action. I have checked Dept of Ed and not found what I need.
Please give answers that are not just assumptions or guesses or your opinion, or because that was how your school did it, because Full Sail does not operate like a real school. I want actual places that will take action or assist me with forcing Full Sail to full disclosure.

Full Sale has a reputation for fraudulent practices.

I do not know how vigorously the Florida government Department of Education would pursue your complaint. If enough money is involved, you might want to consult an attorney.

Withdraw as soon as you can. Do not throw good money after bad.

I am sorry about your experiences.

Why were you so naive you enrolled in this worthless school??
Full Sail is a trade school pretending to be a university.
Full Sail (Fool Sale to insiders) does not have regional accreditation.

Ownpool and PE2008 have told you what Full Sail is all about. I'm here to address your question about withdrawing.

If you withdraw in the middle of your classes, your financial aid will be returned to its sources, and you yourself will end up owing the money for these classes to Full Sail. It would probably be a better idea to finish up these classes, then withdraw. But make sure Full Sail knows now that they are not to sign you up for additional classes, and not to take out additional aid in your name.
