Northwest Kansas Technical College (SCAM)

First off its very hard to get in touch with anyone at this school. I finally did get a hold of Reina Braunum and she told me how great this school was so I decided to sign up, per our conversation I needed a MacBook, iPad, and books which she said they supplied. I waited 2 weeks for my stuff to come. I decided to call and after numerous messages and emails for over a week I finally got in touch with her. She then told me financial aid won't pay for that, you have to and I should of been prepared, mind you she told me she was sending this out and started my classes. I never heard anything on my financial aid so I decided to call because I'm failing my 3 classes that she started me in. A month of non stop emails and phone calls and not one return call or email from this school. I had to talk to people higher up and they finally made Reinna Branum get a hold of me. She was upset when she talked to me like I'm the biggest hassle. She told me she would find out about my financial aid, and back to not being able to get a hold of anyone at the school. I want to switch colleges as I told her but they have my financial aid held up so I can't transfer schools. My loans are going into default because of this school. They basically took my money and left me hanging. Nobody will help me I wish I could sue this school for everything they have put me through. They are ruining my education and they see nothing wrong with anything they are doing. There is way more they did to me but theres only so much I can type. Test this school for yourself and you will see what I mean. I've been in a bad mood for months.
