SCHOOL CHECK LIST:
There are lots of things to consider when picking a school. We've put together a check list to help make sure you ask certain questions and know as many details as possible before making a major decision about your education.
HOW TO SPOT RED FLAGS:
If you've ever seen a commercial for a for-profit school, you know how good they are at making themselves look amazing. It's up to the prospective student (that's YOU!) to see beyond the advertising and get the facts before taking on debt for your education.
Check out our printable tip sheet to help you spot the "red flags" of a predatory for-profit college or career school. Better yet, print it out and bring it with you when you visit a school.
