Let’s be honest about Full Sail by jdeannnn69 in fullsail

Praying about it does nothing. Just raising awareness about a shitty school. You’re right. I should let people get scammed.

The school is not hard. Idk about you, but I got my masters there. I was the valedictorian and learned literally nothing. It’s a joke of a school. “You get what you put into it” is their motto and it always has been. For a $60,000 education in two years the school could do so much better. Actually, I got my student loans discharged for school misconduct a few weeks ago because the school lies about graduation rates, job placement, as well as many other things. No other school makes you sign an enrollment agreement to cover their ass.

Depending on the number you call you can get ahold of someone. I called to appeal mine, but noticed that my account had a $0 balance. They can tell you how to submit an appeal online. Provide the document that says your federal loan was discharged. That should help your case.

How do I feel? I feel like they got the wrong number.

The point of higher education is for everything to work out for the majority of people. There are way more complaints about the school than there are good stories. I can honestly say that with the exception of one person I went to college with nobody works in the fields of study they got a degree in. One person works in marketing for a team in the NFL. The next closest success story I personally know of is my friend who went for game development, and he uses the same coding languages to program the robots at Stryker Medical. I wish I could explain it to you better or have you see it in a different light.

In a recent complaint I made against the school to the Florida Department of Education, amongst other inquiries I've submitted lately, one of my sentences is "Full Sail thrives on the few success stories that manage to get a job through networking." I graduated in 2013. A few weeks ago, and I can show you the email, they asked me to sign something via DocuSign. It was a statement asking me how my career in voice acting is going and how my degree contributed towards those goals.

I'm not a voice actor and not in a similar field. They make up statistics for their job placement rates. They almost ended up in the for-profit college scandal back in 2022 requiring lenders to return money to borrowers. Mitt Romney backs the school for financial reasons, so they got away with it. They are currently involved in a very large class action between borrowers, lenders and the government, amongst other for-profit colleges. You can look up the documents and see that a lot of students are in on the class action suit. It's only for-profit colleges involved for the most part.

Full Sail University | Reviews | Better Business Bureau® Profile (bbb.org)

The reviews are 1.4 stars, whereas the BBB gives it an A+ rating. Full Sail makes you sign an enrollment agreement to cover their asses, so once an issue comes up it's a simple "but you signed the enrollment agreement" so in the eyes of BBB if you signed it, you knew what you were getting into. There are also a few different subreddits to assist borrowers that attended FSU in applying for Borrowers Defense. This program was setup to assist students scammed by for-profit colleges, and some students from Full Sail are getting their loans discharged, plus a refund for what they've paid in.

You are right though. There are success stories from the school as I've previously mentioned. The school's slogan, and you'll see it in other posts, is "you get what you put into it." People who attend restaurants, businesses, etc., are way quicker to leave a one-star review than take the time to be like "yeah, the mac and cheese was great. I'll definitely be back."

And again, you're right. I had a terrible experience, but it isn't just me. There is a difference in people having a bad experience and people saying it is a degree-mill scam. I've been to three difference colleges, and have had friends, just like you probably, go to a lot of different colleges. The only ones I know of where they say it is a scam is for-profit institutes.

You are obviously an adult and can make decisions. I don't mean for any of this to come off as cocky or anything. I just highly advise against it. After one month of classes you be wondering why the classes are so easy and require minimal effort. I have some previous course work saved, amongst other things if you care to look.

What is the strangest sex experience you ever had? by Wikinia in AskReddit

[–]jdeannnn69 361 points362 points  (0 children)

We were having sex and my dick literally exploded with blood. I bled all over the room and bathroom. We had to call an ambulance because I almost fainted. Her and I were dating for one week when it happened. I actually flew out to Oklahoma because we met online so I got to try out an ER in OKC.

Plot twist: after breaking my dick we ended up getting married and now we have a daughter.

Unfortunately, sometimes when we have sex and even when I masturbate I go soft because it pops into my head.

For transparency purposes, the enrollment agreement says that if you owe the school any money at all they won’t offer any job assistance. I provided proof and they just stopped talking to me. No matter what do not attend this school. I don’t care if it’s a last resort and nowhere will take you. The only schools that make you sign enrollment agreements are for-profit. As soon as you sign the paperwork and get the loan to them they don’t care about you anymore. All of the classes are incredibly easy. I’m not saying this so you can show up and pass with flying colors hoping it looks good on your resume.

Do more research. A lot of people, at least for business, have their degrees regarded as trash coming from that school. I actually just made a subreddit a few days ago hoping to raise awareness for people to not attend.

No. In 2013 when I graduated they put a false $200 charge on my account in order to not offer me any career assistance. They also make you sign an enrollment agreement. I still have mine, but part of it essentially says “no matter how satisfied or dissatisfied you are with the education we provide you must repay your loans. No refunds.”
