Wsu tech

Came here through the promise move from sunny Florida to train as an aircraft painter. It turns out the school teaches you stuff you don t even apply at the jobs they have available. I wanted to paint planes, not sort parts. Buyer beware.

I have a friend who goes to this school and it has been nothing but a terrible experience for her! Do NOT recommend to anyone!

My son got his certification for CNC programming here at WSU Tech. Everyone was very helpful in getting us through the enrollment process. My son said he really enjoyed the classes and his teachers. They also took the students to job sites and had them speak with employers.

DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL. I signed up for welding my senior year and got a welding job before senior year ended so I told the person at wsu tech that I welding job and did not need school. He said okay. Then 10 months later I got calls saying I owe 700$ because I didn t go to the class. They are a fuc*ing scam center. AVOID THIS SCHOOL AT ALL COSTS.

After calling multiple times over two weeks I only reached a human once. No return calls, no information available on the program I'm interested in except... "call us". What a joke. Now even if they do return my call there is no way I would attend, especially after reading the other reviews. The 5 star reviews are also suspiciously generic.

Newly enrolled, adult student. Had a few hurdles to get through with financial aid in order to enroll in classes. My financial aid advisor wasn't helpful. She made me feel as if she didn't care whether I got the issues resolved or not. I had to send her an email every single day just to make sure I didn't need to do anything further. She even told me I was waiting on my docs to be reviewed and it could take two weeks, so after waiting two weeks and not hearing from her, I sent her an email to find out what's going on and she responded letting me know my acct wasn't in review bc wsu had been waiting on more docs from me and it would be another two weeks before my financial aid was resolved. It took me almost two months to finish up my financial aid thanks to a negligent financial aid advisor. I just hope the instructors are better than this. Fingers crossed.

I attended WSU Tech for emt basic my instructor Scott Norried was an awesome instructor made things easy to remember and comprehend. I'm now a nationally registered emt and have have my state certification.

I have a friend that goes there. Asked her how she felt about she told me never to go there. It is the worse! She doesn't recomend it to anyone! Get it together if you want people to come to your school.

Outline of review. Location- area, contacting, cleanliness, food, bookstore. Employees- front desk, business office, financial aid, advisors, professors. NDT program - Cost, Professor, courses, in-class, access to the field LOCATION Area is nice and clean with lots of parking. Has great airways between the buildings and a nice sitting area and bbq in the central court. Contacting the location is a struggle. Part of this is that most of us contact during high call times like the beginning of school or as school is starting. Those are rush times in colleges. GO INSIDE OR EMAIL ADVISOR OF THE PROGRAM or call during office hours but remember they take lunches too. So 12 to 2 may be spotty depending on who is on lunch break. >Cleanliness:Great! Bathrooms are always clean, the whole place is shiny. The parking area,lawn, and sidewalks are well maintained. >Food: Bleh meh... it's all vending machine stuff and over priced. Pack a lunch or grab something on the way. 4 hour classes without a snack can get difficult. >Bookstore: A tiny university bookstore with little in it. Best to buy from walmart for things and order books online unless you have financial aid EMPLOYEES --- remember during rush times they are swamped don't wait until the last minute. Plan at least a month ahead before school starts preferably 2. >Front desk: Great and mostly you can self assist with the tablet at the desk. >The business office: Good. There are payment plans, financial aid, and direct. You can pay online after you go to the business office in person and signing the agreements. >Financial aid: A wreck (0 stars!). I do not know why they are so bad here. I use to do this job and it was not like this group. Research online and you'll probably be better off. >Advisors: Great. I've met a few and they all are passionate about their jobs. Most important thing. It is your job to contact your advisor if you have issues. Take the initiative with them. They are there to advise. They are not there to babysit. >Professors: I've had the pleasure of meeting a few in the programs. My direct is NDT professor John Saunders. They all are positive and funny and have been in the field. They know what they are talking about. Ask questions and take notes because what they say is what is out there. NDT PROGRAM associate degree >Cost:payment plans, financial aid, grants, scholarships, and high school access are best. Otherwise it's $14,277.00 + fees and books which is about $3,000.00. Around $19,000 total. ( cheaper at other colleges but further away from me) >NDT Professor: John Saunders is a great teacher. A lot of hands-on for students. He tells you exactly how it is and what it will be like in the field. With most programs it is YOUR job to take the initiative. YOU want to know more and learn more YOU need to ask more and do more. >Courses: All classes are classroom hour classes. This isn't the same for all programs but it is for this one. There are some filler courses which I think WSU forced on to (WATC) WSU tech for credit requirement and required credit hours for a degree. For now that won't change. Try to make the most out of them. ORDER YOUR BOOKS ON ASNT and get a student membership. Way cheaper. >In-class: Again you make the most of it. If you want to learn you will. A professor can teach you the basics but for in field work you need to take initiative and the professor's here expect that front you. If you don't you will not be equipped for the field and that's on you. The classes are about 60% reading and studying and 40% using tools and materials. It can be fun. Talk to your classmates, interact. They will be your peers in the field. >Access to the field:I'm close to graduating. I know students who graduated last semester and were in the field within the month of graduation. I've had offers almost. Can't wait to hit the field. If you want the field-help yourself and the professors will help you. No one wants slackers in the field including the professors and the university. You want a reference. Show you deserve one. It's legitimate.
