Sadly, I can't give out a negative star rating, too bad. Let me start by saying that the good reviews posted on here are probably from Career Point employees, because there is honestly nothing positive to say about this place. Allow me to break this down. Career Point is a for profit school, which basically means they are in business for themselves and could care less if the student is successful as long as they are getting paid. Their ""Admissions Advisors"" are basically a sales department whose sole purpose is to get as many students to enroll as possible, and will do whatever it takes to get them to enroll even if it mean lying to them. I had a friend who was scammed by this place, so I decided to call and get some information from them on their cirriculum. The lady I spoke with over the phone tried every way she could to sale me on attending the school, she told me CPC's credits transfer to other state schools, LIE, she told me tuition was competitve with other local schools, LIE, you can attend any Alamo Community College and get a real degree for about 5% what tuition is for an Associate's at CPC, in fact my Bachelor's degree from Texas State cost me less than an Associate's would at CPC, and it goes a lot further. The instructors are people from the field they are teaching, but do you really think a successful nurse, lawyer, computer technician or business professional would be working at CPC and not at a high paying office? This place targets low income individuals in desperate need for a job, ever wonder why all of their commercials are on during Maury and Springer? It is sickening that these people feed upon the lower class of our society and reap benefits from them, while these poor souls are stuck in debt up to their ears while still trying to provide for families, children and whatever else the case may be. I have talked with many graduates of this place, and was told that employers laugh when they find out they went to CPC, and mock their ""Thanks Career Point"" commercials. I mean come on if you were a lawyer would you hire someone with a paralegal degree from CPC or UTSA? If you were a doctor would you hire a nurse from CPC or Incarnate Word?
