I have enjoyed taking many classes at FVTC as a non-traditional student. My latest experience has…read moreleft me a little unsettled. Buyer Beware! I just enrolled in a non-credited class on-line. In order to make a credit card payment I was directed to "PayPass" which I assumed was the same as "PayPal". Much to my surprise I was charged a $3 service fee. I called FVTC to ask for a refund of the fee and I would pay by check or another way using my credit card. The customer service person said it was too late. This is a fee that goes directly to the PayPass company as a way to pay for the credit card processing services. FVTC does not incur any credit card processing charges. Am I wrong...is this actually an added cost to take a class. Instead why not be honest and add the cost to the registration fee. Full disclosure of the actual fee's charged to take a class at FVTC. I feel bad for the students who have limited funds and you are charging them additionally to pay by credit card. Instead include the cost of paying by credit card as a higher registration fee and charge less for those paying by cash or check. This lets the students decide which is the most affordable way to pay. Pam

Terrible....kids and parents, ask yourself why there have been 3 deans in 3 years. 8 week classes…read moreare attrition not learning. instructors dont teach, you teach yourself. DEI is heavy influence! Why is it a competition it is a tech school. I have had a university degree. This was the most humiliating experience I have ever had. I cried with my instructors....literally. No help when the school charged me out of state tuition when I live here in Green Bay. No availability for appointments in any departments. If you think they care, let me tell you otherwise. Go ahead, some degrees maybe, the blogs are inaccurate. I would never send my child to this tech school

The one star review is for the financial aid office. My wife's experience with her education has…read morebeen very positive at NWTC, and frankly we have had no complaints until the start of this past semester. The tuition isn't cheap but is much more affordable than any of the four year colleges. It is a great option for working adult students (which also describes my wife). However, despite filing for student loans/ aid in a timely manner, there was a delay for the fall semester in processing her loan. In addition to her tuition costs which we can't afford out of pocket, she had taken out extra funds to cover the cost of travel for clinicals, uniform costs and miscellaneous expenses which can add up quickly. Because of this delay, an additional $1000 (per week!) was put on her account while the problem was being figured out. instead of paying $5000 for the semester, she was stuck paying $7000 because the loan processing was delayed due to issues outside of my wife's control. She contested the hold on her account but the loan processed and deducted the $2000 in fees they had applied to her account. She now has to pay for expenses she had planned to fund with student loans out of pocket. Thankfully she did request more or her tuition would still not be paid and she likely would have been forced to drop out of the program. Despite the good education at this school, unless you have $20k plus that you can afford to pay out of pocket for a 2 year program, don't expect the financial aid office to work with you.

Nice people good selection. They got the right stuff they're handy. They got off street parking.read more
