Literally don t waste your money. If you want to be a pharmacy technician, you ll learn more if you apply for an entry level job and get trained on the job. The staff is very nice, but the Pharmacy program was a complete waste of my time and money. I m sure the mechanic program and electrician programs are much more necessary for their jobs, but the pharmacy program almost feels like a scam. I had a great female teacher for my first term, she was very knowledgeable. My second term had a newly hired man, and he was extremely prejudiced and downright mean and cruel. Wish I could just get my money back for that whole second term, because it was extremely disappointing. The male pharmacy was fired shortly after my graduation, thank goodness.
I would also like to add in that the career services are an absolute joke. Never did they do anything to help me find a job in my field, and the figures they liked to throw around about the money I would make after my program were downright lies. I made 75 entire cents more than minimum wage, even though they said the majority of the students made over 12/hour and upward of 20/hour after graduation. Complete lies. I was very disappointed. And now I m stuck with this lovely student loan, when I don t even work in the field that I studied.
