Security at this building at 7pm on 1/31 treated my fiancee with disrespect and disregard of the…read moreuniversity's values. She felt unsafe in his presence while on campus. My fiancee, a student at Antioch went to campus to study with with a peer around 6:30pm. They continued to study for an hour until they were met with security, stating they were 30 minutes past close and needed to leave. They acknowledged it and security left the room. After that interaction my fiancee went to the antioch seattle campus info website, and found that the "Regular Building Hours (Weeks 1-10 of each quarter)" listed for Fridays are from "8 a.m. to 9:30 p.m.". In fall term she had a class that did not conclude until 9:30pm, and even then the security was kind and accommodating to them when they remained later than 9:30pm. With this information she went back to security desk to confirm the hours that the facility is open to. After she brought this up with security, she was immediately with the comment of "how long have you been a student at Antioch" and "this is just what antoich is like, welcome to Antioch". He then follows up with, "i was only scheduled until 7pm, im already here 30 minutes later, the building closes at 7pm, you need to leave". So my fiancee wished him to have a better evening and returned to the study room to pack up her bag. This is where security decided to escalate the situation. He followed my fiancee to the study room, opened the door and stated, "you need to check your privilege, this is Antioch, I'm the poor oppressed employee, you need to leave because campus is closed" and proceeded to show them the time on his phone. My fiancee was taken aback by this comment because it was unnecessary and irrelevant to the situation. After that he proceeded to accuse her of refusing to leave while they were packing their bags. During this interaction she reassured him that they were actively leaving. He then proceeded to mock her during all of this by raising the pitch of his voice and stating, "your smirk is adorable, is this some kind of character that I'm supposed to know". This was another comment that she didn't really know what to do with. So she decided to say, "we don't know each other, so why don't we as adults leave the conflict here, and we will take our things and leave". At this point their bags were packed and ready to go, and he repeats that "you're refusing to leave". At this point my fiancee felt incredibly unsettled, and felt as if the security officer was seeking a reason to escalate the situation. At that point my fiancee decides to leave for her safety. He continued to follow them to the elevators watching very closely while still antagozing them. And then states, "we need a march for the poor oppressed white man". This interaction, and especially this comment, was extremely disrespectful and unprofessional, the antithesis of what Antioch stands for and values. After this my fiancee and her peer took the elevators down. He proceeded to follow them again, down the stairs to usher them out the door. Once they were out he stood in the doorway to ensure they didn't try to enter again. This was intimidation on a large scale for two students who just wanted to study. Two students who were by no means a danger to the campus, and have never ran into security that treats people like this. My fiancee feels completely uncomfortable and unsafe going back to campus now and does not wish to return. This man should not be working here as he's displayed unprofessional, erratic, dangerous, and provoking behavior. As stated before, he also does not align with antoichs mission and values with the comments he made about oppression. I'm not sure if antoich hires their own security or goes through a third party, but they need to do better.

Their graduate programs in mental health and substance use are not preparing students well. They…read moreuse neuroscience textbooks written by old white dudes who have bachelors degrees in English. They're very anti-science and if you speak up about this as a student or as faculty, they'll try to get you out. The person overseeing these programs is very behind in understanding science or technology. They have very high turnover among faculty and lack diversity. You'll find mostly white administrators and white faculty who have no research publications teaching science based courses. Scary scary stuff. They're losing enrollment numbers like crazy so they're creating a bunch of graduate certificate programs to boost their financials but when you rush that process, you churn out ill-prepared students. Their new substance use program is really low quality and hiring managers know this. Avoid for-profit schools. They make a lot of promises in their recruitment but I've yet to see any students come out of that program who understood how limited their job options would be. They only pay their associate professors around 55k a year. You get what you pay for. These are the rejects that couldn't get a teaching position at a better school. Antioch has a real shady history. You can go down that rabbit hole and see similarities with Bastyr and Argosy, now closed.

After missing a payment, I got a notice that I was sent to collections. The school has not reached out to try to have me pay, I have not received any mail in regards to this and have not been officially contacted by the school or a credit agency to be able to resolve this. On top of the school being overly conservative and not having good values in mind. If I could go back, I would have never stepped foot onto this money hungry campus.

Even after graduating, most of the professors still remember their students and are willing to meet up or advise students via emails about further careers. I see a few negative reviews about the fees and public resources. This Is a Private School and any school has its own regulations with both pros and cons. Please carefully select your school before enrolling. I also experienced course registration issues. I was so frustrated! Yet, I'm sure that would also happen with any schools, especially when many of the office employers are actually students who are also trying to learn. We all experience different situations and we grow from these stories in our lives. I love the overall environments, include friendly staffs, faculties, and modern buildings, that make students feel being sincerely concerned.

Stopped in to visit my daughter for her 1st year here. She took me on a tour of the school. Very…read moreimpressive setup. It's the perfect school that I would want. Everything here is pretty much walking distance. The book store was just re-located to the other end from her dorm. It's a little farther now but you get used to the walk eventually. Students have their own parking structure where you got to pass through a guard shack first to get in. Right below that is the field, very nice and modern. They have a nice cafeteria. They also have a laundromat in the basement and a convenient store that sells pretty much everything the students need. From her dorm room on a clear day you can see Mt. Rainier and pretty much everything. I am so glad I had the opportunity to checkout the school my daughter's attending. I feel safe for her in knowing that transportation getting around is easy with so many different options. I recommend this school for any student attending college.

I actually really like UW's Professional & Continuing Education school. So far I've taken four…read moreComputer & IT classes and I've learned a lot. UW has been a great fit for what I was looking for. I learn best through the traditional classroom format. UW was one of the only places that offered part-time night classes that are in-person. They also offer online only classes or self-paced study if you are interested in that. The classrooms are located in Downtown Seattle, which is convenient for me. The building is easy to get to using public transportation or you can use their parking garage which is reasonably priced. The classes usually meet from 6-9 PM, once a week, for nine weeks. I agree that the classes are expensive, with the average cost around $1,150 each. If you are currently working, check with your employer to see if they have a tuition reimbursement program or talk to your boss to see if they will cover it as a training expense. Other students used the G.I. bill or unemployment benefits to cover the cost. UW also offers some need-based scholarships. Some of my classes have definitely been better than others. In general, I would say that the Certificate program courses seem more structured/developed versus the intro/pre-requisite classes. A lot of it also depends on who your teacher is. However, there is only one section offered (per location/format), so you don't really have a choice. UW does send a survey around the third week, so they really value feedback and will try to improve things if they are not going well. Lastly, I would say that the refund policy is strict, but fair. In order to get a 100% refund (minus registration costs), you need to drop out before the class starts. If you drop out during the first week, you can get 75%. The classes are small, so they only take a limited number of students and if you drop out, it's not like they can get someone else to take your place. To make sure you are signing up for the right course, read the course description carefully, attend an Info Session, or e-mail one of their Enrollment Coaches.
