I recently checked out some community and state schools with my kids. Here is what I found: They use TV commercials to recruit students. Although the Pell grant would cover the cost of tuition and books, we were encouraged to take out student loans... — read more 

I've taught for close to 12 different schools/colleges, and only at Everest Online do they require Constitution Day announcements be posted in each online class each Sept. I recall this starting in Sept 2014 (shortly after CCi stated its collapse)... — read more 

Is Zenith Ed Group still in business? Why doesn't anyone at the campuses answer the phones? It goes to voicemail or is rerouted to someplace in CA where no one answers the phones. Considering the lack of student population you would think the... — read more 

Why would a student loan debt collection company suddenly start running a university?

More closings and layoffs to be announced.

It is sad to say, but the time has come to agree with the naysayers on this site. The right thing to do is to close Zenith, refund the $$$ to the students we are currently stealing from and move on. Zenith leadership could not have handled the... — read more 

Our boss Dave just volunteered this team to go through another RIF. All his talk about Loyalty is only one direction. I’m done with this BS.

ITT down, Everest to go. Can't say you don't deserve it, you do. Wasted money on new software systems all the time, feel good instruction systems, new boards/portals, etc. What a waste when all you needed to do was get rid of the name Everest, get... — read more

The only reason ECMC aquired Everest was for the non for profit tax protection. For the past 1.5 years they discussed, consistently, taking the organization down to 10 or 12 schools. Get out before there is nothing left.

Being this is Dave's last day I wanted to bid him a big farewell. By Dave, now get the hell out of here and go destroy a few thousand other lives.

way to show concern for your employees. This leadership is straight trash

This board went silent after ITT news. Whats up?

Are there any RIFS happening in on line. I know they do it sneaky by just not assigning classes and only buddies of the AP's get the few classes there are. Anything happening?

With ITT now effectively closing down (see today's Wall Street Journal). It shouldn't be too long before the Government shuts down Everest as they are even worse. This giving money to people who should never be in College and saddling them with... — read more 

I was let go from admissions 3 years ago because our branch was struggling and letting people go. Everest was my first "real job" out of college, and it was a good way to make decent money as a 21 year old. Being let go was the BEST thing that ever... — read more

Now that Dave is gone, Josh and Heidi will not be able to hide their lack of talent very long! My sources put them at the top of the internal deadpool list.

Nobody who works for Zenith has helped anyone, except for maybe helping students earn a worthless degree or helping them rack up student loan debt that they will never be able to repay. Everest is not a school, it's a business that preys on the poor... — read more
