It's honestly outrageous that I can't give this school a zero. The administration seems far more…read moreinterested in collecting funding for each child than actually educating them or keeping them safe. The elementary leadership -- especially Brooke Baker -- has shown absolutely no skill, training, or even basic judgment when it comes to working with students. It feels like she's more focused on her social life than on doing her job. And let's be real: when the staff won't even send their own children to this school, that tells you everything you need to know.

Almost every module, you're basically teaching yourself, they just hand you a cheap $200 laptop, and then hire somebody that has some years of experience in the profession however they aren't "fully" experienced teachers. So it feels like you're in a substitute teacher environment , while they just assign you Work to complete on your computer. All in all everybody that's going to school there already knows what they've got themselves into after hitting not even one month in. The thing that sucks is the fact that us hard-working family people come over there in hopes the gain experience for our new career that we have chosen. But get met with what seems to be a completely legal scam they get your FASFA and then throw you some videos on YouTube or a preloaded PowerPoint for a book that you guys have to follow. It's sad because while we're over here thinking about bettering our careers for our families and our children, Dorsey college is just in it for a quick buck off of your FASFA to keep themselves up. Now whatever advisor sees this review please do not leave an email for me to contact you at, and don't apologize for the "inconvenience", you take part in the inconvenience. Nothing you can do will help benefit anybody unless you shut down your locations. So whoever gets to read this review that works for Dorsey, I hope you sleep better at night knowing you scam people out of their money so then they may not even afford to feed themselves let alone their kids.

I called Dorsey Schools Dearborn for information on their Electrician program for my son. The…read moregentlemen I spoke to kept asking me for my phone number and when I wanted to make an appointment for a campus visit. All I wanted to know at this time was tuition information. When he kept saying that you need to see the campus and financial aid is available to those who qualify, I figured that this one year program was probably ridiculously priced somewhere north of $15,000 in tuition costs. At this point, I told the gentlemen that I was not interested in a campus visit and promptly hung up. My thoughts were that Dorsey Schools trains it's "advisors" in the fine art of sales and makes the campus visit appointment to get the person in the door and sign a financially binding agreement. When I checked their website again, I could not find any tuition information so I'm leery of an institution of higher learning that is unwilling to declare the costs of their facility.

A couple weeks after I turned 17, I decided to forgo my senior year at Trenton High School, and…read moreinstead I spent my senior year in the US Navy avionics program learning how to become an electronics technician in the naval aviation field. After my four years up, I went straight to Henry Ford College and began studying Physics, Psychology, Philosophy and Music, eventually earning a degree in Liberal Arts. Because all of the teachers there are top notch and highly recruited by many other prestigious schools, HFC administrators do a fantastic job of curating these world-class level professors whom share a passion for their subject matter and for teaching that subject matter to everyone willing to learn. My all-time favorite teacher, from all of my years in public school, and my time in Naval schools and even my time at UofM AA included, was the incomparable Peter Putnam at HFC. Mr. Putnam normally taught any and every English class that he could, and likewise I took every single class that I could with Mr. Putnam, who had a massive impact on my life and I owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude. Had it not been for my phenomenal education at HFC, I would not have earned an academic scholarship to the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, which would further my education and expanded my sense of who I was and more importantly, who I could become. The common latin phrase: "Scientia potentia est" which means "Knowledge Is Power" is a maxim that I have witnessed proven in my life, myriad times, and HFC helped send me on that path and I will be forever indebted to institution and my specific teachers. Dr. Azar was a treasure as well, and he also altered the direction of my life, again, for tremendous benefit to me, and eventually for my children as well. There are many different teachers & professors there that I could espouse, yet HFC is the organization that recruits these special teachers and deserves credit for creating a phenomenal center for learning. I cannot overstate what a superlative institution HFC is. They were the driving factor that helped me earn an Academic scholarship at University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, and not only will I be forever grateful, but there were many classes at HFC that were superior to UofM. I bleed Maize & Blue, through & through, but HFC made that dream possible. While I was at HFC, I felt that I should give back somehow, and they quickly set me up with their Special Needs department and began giving me as many struggling students that they could and I learned that I love tutoring and that I am exceptional at doing it. Again, I have to thank HFC, for revealing my character. I simply cannot recommend HFC highly enough, anyone who is even remotely considering it, just sign up and begin your world class education. Knowledge is power

I went to this school in the early 80's. My experience was not good. I had a few very bad…read moreexperiences with the professors here. In one case I was taking an art class and apparently the teacher did not like the direction of my drawing, so instead of telling me what I should do, he took my paper and pencil away from me and started doing it himself. After another bad experience in another art class I basically quit and never really did art again after that, which is sad because I really enjoyed it. Then in psychology class that I took, I had a teacher who decided that instead of teaching us about psychology, he was going to teach us about the anatomy of the brain. We spent the entire class learning about the anatomy of the brain and then towards the end of the semester, he announced that instead of a final exam, there would be a class and if we showed up we passed and we didn't I guess we did not pass. Well on the last day of class the teacher did not show up. So I guess the school just did some kind of average of our previous test scores for that class. Then in a sociology class I had a teacher who kept insisting that he was going to politicize us. We also had an older senior classmate in this class which I personally found refreshing, but the teacher treated this classmate terribly and I felt really bad for him. Thankfully I think that schools have progressed beyond this and now treat older students much better than that. I'm sure this school has improved over the years, so I wouldn't necessarily consider my review to be very relevant for today, however, I'm adding it as a cautionary tale for people who may accept improper teaching methods and not question it or decide to find a better teacher or class. Also, I've been holding this in a long time and I still think about it from time to time and how my future could have been different if my experience had been better or if I found a better way to handle it. Sadly, the school counselors during this time period were not very helpful either.
