The graduation ceremony was beautiful. My family and I were impressed with the USMC color guard as well as the time taken before and after to say a beautiful prayer. The speeches that were made were very motivating and positive. I felt very honored to walk across that stage. Everything was so professionally done. Thanks Stanbridge!

Stanbridge University is one of the best schools in Southern California. Faculties and staffs are very knowledgeable and supportive. They provide all the elements for students to achieve their academic goals. I studied maters of occupational therapy at Stanbridge and I greatly appreciate the OT program director and director assistant for their hard work and support during this journey. I highly recommend this school.

The tour and orientations was fun and very informative. Got us more familiar with the RV room and other rooms through scavenger hunt. The only thing I wouldve appreciated more was having staff members learn how to work the white board or computer so they dont struggle while theyre giving speech or presentation. For example, how to increase the volume or work the touch screen. Lastly, giving us student at least 5 minutes of break between every hour.

They are very dedicated and professional at what they do. The school is very high in technology and highly qualified instructors. Andrea Mojica from admissions was the my representative and she is very knowledgeable of what Stanbridge stands for. She helped me with any questions I have and she is one of the reasons why I chose Stanbridge!

Stanbridge University not only provided me a great education to land my dream career, it also led me to meet amazing, driven people. The staff are helpful and qualified, giving the students the confidence and drive to succeed. I enjoyed being involved in student organizations, and have grown exponentially as a person. I have made lasting friendships not only with fellow classmates, but instructors and students alike from all disciplines. At Stanbridge, I wasn’t just a student in a classroom, I was part of a team!

I forgot why I went here. I dont remember what I learned. Maybe I am just slow. I am happy to tell people reading this that I liked the staff. They were nice and helped me throughout.

Prepare yourself for excellent, kind and personalized experience. The staff makes you feel welcomed and prepares you for your journey. Need I mention the access to advanced technology? Do your research, this is a major selling point to their programs. Way to go Stanbridge!

This school has all the technology you could ever want, and provides a lot of support. I wish I could have afforded to go there. That’s the only downside, is the really high price.I should add, the price is high for a reason. They buy top of the line technology to teach their nurses and vet techs (those are the only things I’ve seen myself, and I am 100% sure they put the money into their other programs, too.) My current financial situation makes the school unaffordable, but the price is 100% worth it. I was going to make myself afford it until I was told about a deposit.I WAS shocked by the $400+ deposit they required during orientation (for the LVN program.) I wasn’t told about it except less than a week before orientation. There was really no iltime for me to prepare.My financial aid advisor, Vanessa, was AMAZING and tried everything to make the school more affordable. My academic advisor, Nikia, was the BEST. She really helped to make me feel comfortable and helped teach me more about the program.

From the admission process to the first week of school my experience has been amazing. All the faculty and students are so welcoming and they actually care for your wellbeing. You are individually catered to. I feel like part of the Stanbridge family!

Stanbridge University has the best mindset. Having students to understand and apply thier knowledge is the best way to go and they deliver. They want you to succeed and will help you out with all thier resources. Their staff is magical and so are their attitudes. Super friendly and motivating, i feel great to be part of this university.

Good program. Lots of opportunities for tutoring and additional help with classes. Aside from the commute to class it was a wonderful experience. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a good OTA program.

Very disappointed with this school. I fell in love with it but it broke my heart. They begin by hyping things up and making it sound like u we’re made for this school. They were so quick to take my application money, the test fees, the background check fees and set you up to speak with financial aid to see how you will pay for the course but when it came time for me to finish my financial aid paperwork turns out my rep graduated and was no longer with the company. On top of that my new rep had no idea who I was. So I was emailing a rep that no longer worked there and they didn’t bother to communicate with me. Then the reps go on and on about how they are left in the dark about things and know nothing. Then they said it’s based on a point system then they said if you do bad on the interview you don’t get in. I don’t understand and I highly recommend you go elsewhere!!! Zero stars for this school!

I cant rave enough about this school. If you are serious about your education and it ready to change your life, this is the school for you. The experience has been short of amazing! I cant wait to graduate and change my life! The staff is great! I am so grateful for Andrea Mojica...she took a personal interest and helping me. Also Mike, Brian and Lashawn worked diligently to help me figure out the best financial aid options; rhe program directors are extremely professional and approachable ; I can go on and on . Thank you so much for taking the time to care about me.

Stanbridge College is such a blessing for me. The staff members and professors specifically the OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY ASSISTANT Department were all expert on what they do and offer. OT is a totally different field for what I came from (Hotel Industry) but having such a supportive professors and effective program, I was able to grasp this field of Occupational Therapy by heart. Special mention to the leaders of the OTA Program, Mr. Satch Purcell and Ms. Tina Huang followed by their top professional in OT that made this wonderful program a blast. Stanbridge College will definitely bring everyone on board the success that they need for brighter future. More Power Stanbridge College!

I had a good experience here at Stanbridge. There were some bumps and hiccups, but overall it was good. The teachers were awesome, though not all would fall in that category. Any help that was needed was right there for the taking.

Take what you can get from the experience. Mostly had a positive one, however there was some last minute change ups for clinical sites which was stressful. Enjoyed clinicals and the teacher partnering with the students throughout the day. Most teachers communicated they cared about the students.

If you are “shopping” around for schools and you feel that this school is the right choice think again... I was a current LVN student. I decided to go else where 2 months ago. A year ago I went on yelp to find reviews to the schools in Orange County and thought Stanbridge was the right choice for me. (Keep in mind though this is my experience) when I did the tour of the school they show you the cadaver lab and the virtual lab... for the LVN student you do not get to go to the cadaver lab or dissect it,that is for RN students. Some questions I wish I asked before deciding to waste money and time were how many students start the program and how many finish. Instead I focused on their 100 NCLEX passing rate. Recently students have been caught cheating and ruined it for the rest of us. Ms Renee has changed the material and no study guides. She’s uses RN questions. I know this for a fact because I found the book she uses. Someone that works their told me Regina who works in student services hires people to make the quizzes for her the night before we take the quiz. Our teacher tells us what we need to focus on for the quiz and it’s completely different. You have to basically study for the quiz like your studying for the exam because the quiz is on everything. Student services doesnt care about you. All communication their is ridiculous ms Renee doesn’t care about you who is the LVN director. It’s all shady and a joke their. If you fail out and want to get back in you have to take like 6 different test now. It used to be 3. I hope yassith does something about how it’s run or even cares to know what’s going on at his school. Our cohort started with 45 something students and now they have 6! I repeat 6 students graduating!!! Ms Renee and Ms Regina should be fired!!!!!

I have recently signed up for their OTA program and I am very excited to join. The staff has been very helpful and welcoming. Dina Hsu has been very helpful and encouraging to join the Occupational Therapy Assistant program, she works around my schedule to make sure I am getting everything done on time. Financial Aid office is very helpful when doing the process. I recommend this school to future OTA students. I am very excited to start this program.

Out of 45 students that started the class only less than 9 remains in the class. Stay away from this school. There Nclex rate is base on less than one percent of the class .

Enrolled in the LVN program and by far was the best decision Ive ever made. Ive made a life-long wonderful friendships within my cohort. Staff here were so nice and helpful and made my experience here even more great and Ive just recently graduated and I couldnt have been more prepared for the NCLEX because the usage of ATI here as helped me a lot and it is highly important in the nursing program. Therefore, I highly recommend this school for the LVN program!

I am currently in the vet tech program( just finished term 1 and starting term 2) here are a few things I wish I knew about the program before I started.UPDATE!!!STRONGLY suggest getting your generals done else where!!!Almost done with term 2 and Looking back, the program would be soo much easier if you were just taking the vet core classes. Seriously.. if you are really thinking about going here fresh out of high school and think you are going to be fine with the work load you are in for a rude awakening.. just please take my advice and get your generals done somewhere else. You will actually enjoy your time here if you are just taking the vet core classes because the vet related classes and the generals work load at the same time is extremely stressful because again you will be taking roughly 20 credit hours( that’s general classes and vet core classes) AND the material is very rushed.-curriculum is extremely rushed-instructors are a hit or miss (3/5 instructors were really great and knew what they were talking about and we’re able to explain really well, other 2 did not know the material and did not know how to effectively teach/explain/ or answers any questions about the material they were teaching. Pretty much had to self teach in both classes)-the parking situation is a hot mess. Parking on campus is extremely limited and the street parking is a joke.-The remediation assignments (Student services assigns you an extra assignment on top of your homework in whatever class for being 15+ minutes late or missing the class or leaving 15+ minutes early ie. Handwritten 100 bullet points on the slides of the power point you missed. The instructor then has to sign off on it and you turn it into student services no later than 1 week of the absence/tardy) is extremely unnecessary and just adds more stress.-But all in all still a better program than any of the other schools I was looking into before I started the program. I’m still loving what I am learning about and the hands on labs are amazing. My classmates and I are extremely close and working together and helping each other study is a must to succeed in every class. If you do find yourself struggling there are so many resources the school provides to help you ie. free tutoring from a peer tutor, tutoring from your instructors per request via emailing them. Scheduling an appointment with the Student success coordinator (helps you plan your study schedule and helps with testing stragies).Just know this is a tough program because it’s rushed and you WILL be taking anywhere from 12-20 credits hours. ( this is decided based on if you have transfer credits from other colleges ie. math 1010, Biology1010, college writing, etc. I was taking 20 credit hours. I did not choose this, your schedule will be chosen for you by the school) and you will be eating, living and breathing veterinary medicine for the next 2 years. ( also I want to add that it is STRONGLY recommended that you DONT have a job. At least in 1st term. In orientation they go more in-depth about this. A lot of my classmates including myself quit our full/ part time jobs after 1 month in the program because it was too much) If this is something you think you can handle then it is definitely worth it!

The program I was in (vet tech) was great for the most part! However there was a lot of bumps in the 2 years and disorganization when I was there. Teachers were a hit or miss you could get a great one and would love that class, or you would get one you dreaded and never wanted to go to class. Being the first class to graduate from that program we didnt get all the amazing equipment that the students have now. This program over all is a great experience because when you are struggling or need help you can find teachers always doing tutor sessions or the LRC always is willing to help you learn things as well. they are doing the best they can to make sure things run smoothly from now on. I would recommend this course now because it seems like things will run smoother now that they learned from passed mistakes with my class.

Teaching quality varies from completely amazing to mediocre. I graduated this past January in the part-time program. We used the simulation lab twice and the cadaver lab once during the whole program. The NCLEX review session is held during daytime hours; M-F from 8am to 3pm for a part-time program attending classes from 6pm-10pm. If you cant make it, you get penalized. There needs to be better organization and planning with the programs. It seems like it was improving as I was leaving. The LRC staff was always helpful.

Review №38

I can only speak for the PTA program. If you plan to choose your education here be prepared to literally dedicate 2 years of your life to the program. This means you cannot get sick even once as they punish you with writing out 100 multiple choice questions wth explanations as to why/why not the choices are correct or incorrect. Please also know you cannot be ONE MINUTE late to class as questions of the following punishment also occurs. Life happens, accidents happens but you will be kicked out of the program if they do. Its a FOR PROFIT SCHOOL. They do this on purpose so you can pay more to retake classes or be forced to reenroll. I went through orientation and learned this before waisting $55,000 on a program that is equivalent to attending a boarding school. They literally told us THIS IS NOT YOUR BACHELOR DEGREE PROGRAM YOU CANOT MISS ONE CLASS BE LATE OR LEAVE EARLY. IF YOU GET PREGNANT YOU HAVE TO DROP OUT. Its a scam to make as much money as possible. I got out just in time before I ruined my life and I hope you do too. Oh and working while attending school is actually not an option. If you already make that much money to not have to work while furthering your educating then why even attend? Youll be worst off after graduating.
