Hi there,

 

My name is Michael Goldberg and I'm a Senior Admissions Advisor with Kaplan University.  I know how hard it is to find the right school, so please let me know if I can answer any questions for you.

 

 

I am sorry for posting to this but I could not figure out how to post to any other Kaplan forum. I am about to finish my third term at Kaplan and I want to know when I will be doing my clinicals. I have asked everyone and no one will give me a straight answer. I am obtaining my AAS in medical office management. If you could help me I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks so much!

Hi Michael ...  Just curious if anyone at Kaplan reads my blog.  I haven't heard it mentioned anywhere, but that doesn't mean much.

I am about to finish my four years at Kaplan.  I was hoping I would hear something from someone at Kaplan about all the props I give them.   I am a one-man recruiting machine.

Deanspty, do you believe that Kaplan ripped you off? Please give us examples, thanks!

A word of advice: posting the exact same thing in multiple forums makes it appear as though you have an agenda you're not sharing.  That wouldn't be the case, now would it??

i have one question for you. what happens if you decided not to go to kaplan? i havent been enrolled completely and i wanna if they will charge for deciding not to attend. please let me know because im so worried.

Let me turn the question around: What have you signed that would obligate you to pay them anything beyond the application fee?

Dear loveme,

I would recommend contacting the school right away so that they can help you in this situation. I'm sure they will be very accommodating. These things happen--don't worry!

Victoria's right, but I'd add that you shouldn't just leave voicemail or email for the one person you've been working with.  Call until you're speaking with a real live person who can route you to someone who can actually help you.

Thanks Victoria. i have left messages and emails to the admissions advisor but i still havent heard from him. i am worried because i have so much on my plate and i dont think i can handle getting slapped in the face with a charge and i havent even started the class. what do i do if that happens?

i just spoke to another admissions advisor and he has told me that i wouldnt get charged for anything because i havent started class and he told me that my admissions advisor would understand but i am so scared. ive never been through this.

If at all possible follow up all of your conversations with emails because they are in WRITING and therefore hold some legal weight.  A verbal contract isn't worth the paper it's written on.
