Thread regarding Education Management Corporation layoffs

Acceptance deadline pushed back to Sunday? Admissions working all weekend?

What's going on? Isn't the deadline for acceptance part of the AG settlement?

They still pay tuition? Very creepy.

And you wonder why lots of people hate you.

EDMC has always allowed late starts, on ground and online, typically until the end of week one but sometimes into the first few days of week two. The reason online has different start dates is mainly so students never had to wait more than 7-10 days to start a course, immediately starting a student is a sales technique to get them hooked while they're still excited. Remember, registering students even late increases the profit margin for the session. Many late registered students do not persist especially in lower level classes at schools like Ai and SU. But they still pay tuition.

That's how it's always been. If they want to start they can.

They are supposed to not accept applications a week before the start. They said the hell with that agreement and force students to enroll! I have witnessed students that would rather start in august or October and there is push back from the school. I feel another layoff if numbers are not met!

Argosy? They've pushed back acceptance and registration deadlines (of course not officially but making exceptions) for the Every start this year. We have the summer c start on July 13. I guess that's what op is talking about.
