ECPI University

Hi, I’m a proud graduate of ECPI with an associate degree in Information Technology. Yes—I walked across that stage with a handful of others. When I started, there were thirty-three students in my class. By the end, only three of us crossed that finish line. Some chose not to participate, but most didn’t make it. ECPI isn’t for people who think they can just show up and coast to a passing grade. It’s not a traditional school. You don’t go there to make friends—you go there with a plan to graduate, build your career, and gain the skills to become a true asset. I learned quickly that life happens. Some classmates had kids, some got pregnant, a few were arrested, and others couldn’t afford tuition. I was fortunate to use my GI Bill from the military to cover my costs. Many students came straight out of high school, still adjusting, expecting ECPI to coddle them. But ECPI doesn’t play that game. It’s not that kind of party. If you’re serious about gaining knowledge and earning a degree, I can’t think of a better place than ECPI. And when I meet someone who says they graduated from there, I know without question—they’ve got the skills to land a job. I’d hire them in a heartbeat.

While there may be some benefit to someone from this particular education program. However, I saw the program to be very vague, not enough detail and rushed. So I advise you to really look into that and go over to a particular college or university if you're going to study any type of electronics. That I don't find this to be the place where that will be fully explained well enough where you can go out into the world and get a job though they claim that you will be able to get a job coming out of there

I spoke to a “recruiter” regarding the LPN program and was not impressed. The conversation felt rushed. I requested the NCLEX pass rate and instead of having the information readily available, I was directed to look it up on my own. Not to mention, the cost for the program is $38,000 (for 15 months). Whereas a typical accelerated program is 12 months at half the cost. I will continue to look.

Very money hungry school when you’re close to finishing they throw a big balance out of no where claiming financial aid won’t cover the cost but when you contact fasfa they say something completely different. Everything is last minute you never know when the state boards are. They tell you last minute when cpr classes are available. This school is full of bs and does not care about working adults like they advertise

I went to ECPI for nursing. I took A&P 1 and passed the lab, but I failed the class by 2 points, and they wouldn't pass me. Made me sit out for 10 weeks and still expected to get paid. It is just a waste of school.

I finished the Medical Assisting program, despite how expensive this university is and how unprofessional the instructors are. I would not recommend ECPI, at the beginning the program started very well with good teachers, who soon left, in the end there were only two instructors left for the complete program on campus, of which there is one very arrogant and another who seems to have no idea of ​​what she is teaching. In terms of economics, ECPI is very very expensive. There are many of the classes in this program that are UNNECESSARY, they make you last longer in the program so they can continue taking money from you. The worst university I have ever attended!!

ECPI has all the tools you need to succeed as a student. If you work hard, you will be fine. The biggest thing holding this institution back is some of the teachers that have tenure there. Some teachers (Bill Harding, for example) seem to have lost their passion to teach. This location DESPERATELY needs new teachers who can breathe the passion back into this (potentially) great learning experience. The opportunities, the hands-on material that you study, and the time spent can be worth it in the long run. However, do understand that if you start going here, a lot of the credits don't transfer over well to other schools if you decide you want to transfer later. *CAUTION* DO NOT GO HERE IF YOU ARE NOT SERIOUS ABOUT YOUR EDUCATION. THERE ARE STUDENTS THAT GO HERE THAT SMOKE WEED AND DO THE BARE MINIMUM (just like everywhere else). STAY AWAY FROM THEM. THIS IS NOT YOUR STANDARD TEACHING SCHEDULE YOU HAVE TO BE LOCKED IN AND THAT CROWD USUALLY FALLS OFF AND DROPS OUT A YEAR OR TWO IN. THAT IS A WASTE OF YOUR EDUCATION, TIME, AND MONEY.

I would not give any school a 5. All schools have much room for improvement. That said, ECPI is a wonderful environment for someone who: 1-can devote time to the hands on labs, 2- can engage in the content with some passion and 3- doesn't have too many personal distractions. Instructors are caring and support staff are good at what do.

Don't believe the lies. You get what you put in. My experience is what I made it, and it was incredible. They want to help, see you succeed, I could text my professors. They all care about you as a person, if you take time to get to know them. You will get what you put in, you reap what you sow.

I am about to graduate from the ADN program in Raleigh and I can’t be more excited. I had amazing teachers and clinical instructors. Ms. Armstrong, Ms. Pickett (DON), Dr. Vinton, Ms. Voss, Ms. Meneses, Ms. Gautreaux, Ms. Sweeney, Ms. Johnson, Dr. B (A&P). Nursing school is not easy anywhere you go; however, when you have instructors that support you when you need help it makes it easier. And I have the best classmates ever!

The advisor was awesome and staff were friendly and understood how and when to assist

The instructors and curriculum all seem great, and for those who can afford school or have a way to pay a for-profit school this seems great. Unfortunately, I was misled when applying by financial aid, then kind of forgotten very easily …

Don't waste your time to attend ECPI. Staff is rude, never helpful, cannot communicate, and advisors don't even know what they do within their job description. Even teachers don't bother to even TRY to help. And They don't care about you, …

Almost done with the practical nursing program. I want to return for my RN, but unsure. The school has potential, such as real labs, up to date lab equipment, lots of resources for nursing students, etc. but they are grossly understaffed …

I'm a current student. The classes and professors are challenging and amazing. The advisors are worthless though. Zero support, zero knowledge, and they expect for you to do their job for them! Like, literally a response I got from my advisor is that "everything is online." This should be the first job replaced by AI!

Loved my experience with the representatives of ECPI. But, after a year or two of me not going with them due to financial situations I got a call from them— asking if I was someone I wasn’t. I was confused and then said. No- but I was …

I don't recommended no one to go to this school. Very expensive. They force you to sit in a 5 hr classes before you are able to take online classes. I ask for online classes because of my work schedule. Not very flexible in the beginning. …

I was super excited to attend this school. Thinking that ECPI could give me a better future. But then I came to realize that ECPI is only after students money and could careless for there students education. I attended night classes and …

As a current ADN student now. I would not recommended the RN program in Raleigh. The instructors keep quitting, there is no consistency. The director is very rude to students, very forgetful, and will blame you for her mistakes. Not saying …

I love ECPI. My Admission advisor helped me understand everything, and answered any question I had. My teachers are wonderful. They truly care about the students like me and want us to succeed. I would recommend ECPI to anyone.
