The learning courses are good to follow and i like how the break the practice exercise up through the courses to let you refresh on what you've just learned. I just suggest there were hard copy books as I follow along well.

Reply from U.S. Career Institute
Congratulations on your enrollment, Michael! We are happy to have you as a student. U.S. Career Institute High School is accredited by the DEAC and MSA-CESS, both of which are recognized by the US Department of Education. U.S. Career Institute High School does not offer a college prep diploma track, which some colleges or intuitions may seek for admission. Students who plan to attend one of these colleges or intuitions may consider attending a community college before transferring. USCI does not guarantee the transferability of its credits to any other institution or acceptance of its diploma to meet college entrance requirements because acceptance of transfer academic credits and academic credentials to another institution is determined by the receiving institution. Institutions individually establish criteria for transfer credit acceptance based on many factors, including but not limited to: course content, final grade, credits per course, type of accreditation, etc. Should U.S. Career Institute High School graduates wish to continue their studies in a U.S. Career Institute non-degree or degree program, they will receive a credit for U.S. Career Institute high school vocational courses of equivalent rigor and content. Outside of U.S. Career Institute, we recommend discussing specific requirements with your military recruiter or college Admissions office. You are also always welcome to reach out to our High School Registrar with any additional questions at hsregistrar@uscareerinstitute.edu or (800) 347-7899, ext. 33682. We're happy to help and are excited to see you earn your high school diploma.

Don't choose this facade of a school do your research. Simply put they're not in the student national clearing house for a reason. There is 97% of schools widely that participate in the student national clearinghouse, even my high-school is listed in the database plus my diploma. They're not participating for a reason, do yourself a favor and don't waste your time.

Thank you for your suggestion. To clarify, being part of the National Student Clearinghouse is not an indicator of quality - accreditation and state approvals are - which we have. The National Student Clearinghouse is a 3rd party, non-profit organization that works with many schools. Schools may opt to use their services, but there is no evaluation of school quality, curriculum, teaching standards, business practices, etc. It is not a government, accreditation, certification or approval body. There is no positive or negative association with choosing to participate or not, it is simply a choice that schools make in whether to use their service or not. The main reason we would use this platform is for its transcript services. Since we are not a Title IV school (we do not offer government loans or grants) and have no need of the compliance portion of their software that tracks information for Title IV, we have opted for a friendlier and also widely used transcript platform, Parchment. As Parchment mentions on their website, they help "learners, academic institutions, and employers request, verify, and receive transcripts, diplomas, and other credentials through a comprehensive platform." One of the benefits of Parchment is that they are generally faster at sending transcripts than the National Student Clearinghouse. Having said that, we always appreciate suggestions and have reached out to our registrars to determine the appropriateness of switching to the Clearinghouse platform based on any feedback they may have received from other schools receiving our transcripts or students/graduates. Thank you again for your suggestion and please do not hesitate to reach out to the school at (800) 347-7899 if you have any other questions.

Hello Sean - Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear you feel the program was not a good value for you. We offer a variety of certificate programs designed to provide foundational education and prepare students for applicable industry certifications. We believe our programs are competitively priced and offer both pay-in-full and payment plan options to accommodate different student needs but understand our programs may not be the best fit for everyone's needs. Your specific program was developed by our experienced curriculum team with input from subject matter experts and is reviewed annually by advisory councils that include employers and professionals in the field. We recognize that our students come from varied backgrounds and have different learning styles and career goals, and our programs are designed to provide a strong foundation for pursuing entry-level opportunities and continued growth within the industry. Completion of our programs alone does not result in an industry certification; graduates earn a U.S. Career Institute Certificate of Completion attesting to their training. However, many of our programs, including this one, are designed to help prepare graduates for widely recognized, third-party-administered certification exams, and some offer reimbursement for eligible certification costs. Our Student Services team will be reaching out to provide additional information regarding your program and address your concerns. We appreciate your time.

The enrollment process is a breeze and so far the courses are good. A lot of information and long but good. As for getting any financial assistance or scholarships to help pay for it- that’s a little tricky depending on the course you choose. It’s doable but tricky. Since they don’t have FAFSA grants through student aid is not possible and private funds are harder to find so expect to pay out of pocket but hope for funding. If there were programs to help students pay for it I think students would be more willing to enroll.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear that the enrollment process was easy and that you’re enjoying your coursework so far. We understand how important it is to be thoughtful about where you invest your money and to choose an education option that fits your budget and goals. U.S. Career Institute does not participate in Title IV federal loan programs. Instead, we focus on keeping our programs affordable and offer monthly payment plans to help make tuition more manageable. One benefit of this is that students can avoid the stress and long-term burden of interest-incurring student loans. We know this may mean students might explore other funding options and appreciate your feedback. We also work with military education benefits. We’re glad you chose U.S. Career Institute and wish you continued success as you work toward completing your program!

Great course so far. I wish I got the updated CPT and ICD 10 2026 books with renewing my course and that the institute would provide several end of course practice exams. Besides that I like it.
