IF YOU WANT AN ALLIED HEALTH CAREER SUCH AS: A NURSE, RADIOLOGY TECHNOLOGIST, RESPIRATORY…read more THERAPIST, AND DENTAL HYGIENIST YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!! I've been applying to their radiology technician program since 2021 and here we are in 2026. Not only did they change their requirements but now they are being transparent about how many applicants they receive which was around 1,100 applicants!!!!and only accept 55 students(lottery system)ONCE A YEAR. If I would've known that straight out of high school I would've gladly went to a private school and pulled a loan instead of wasting my time hoping to get accept at FC. SCCCD has so many campuses, but yet they have the whole entire state trying to apply to their programs at one campus. This district is allowing their students to waste money on their prerequisites knowing that their allied health programs are overfilled with applicants. Your chances of getting into a program are almost slim to none.

Prospective students are rushed through tours and quickly pushed into signing enrollment contracts without first being clearly told whether they actually qualify for financial aid. Financial aid eligibility should be confirmed before any binding agreement is signed. Instead, students are locked into contracts first, then sent to financial aid afterward, stripping away any real ability to make an informed, responsible decision. The administration and financial aid staff are fully aware of how this process is structured, and they should be ashamed of operating in a way that pressures people into binding financial commitments without full financial transparency. This is especially concerning given that many prospective students are low-income individuals or people in difficult financial circumstances who are seeking a way to improve their situation. That reality makes this lack of transparency even more troubling and irresponsible. This approach prioritizes enrollment over honesty and puts students at unnecessary financial risk based on incomplete information. Schools should be required to verify financial aid eligibility before any enrollment agreement is signed--not after.

Appointments are frequently canceled with little regard for the student's time, often less than an hour before they are supposed to take place. These last‑minute cancellations force students to rearrange their schedules, only to be told they must wait nearly another month for the next available appointment, even when the original meeting was booked weeks in advance. Their actions suggest that genuine student support is not a priority. Better luck just praying than get any support.

Financial Aid doesn't know what they are doing and neither do the advisors. In 10 months I have had to go above my advisors to my Chem professor to fix their mistakes. I have a family of 6 and we make 60k a year and receive medi-cal and even with a scholarship financial aid wanted me to pay $2100 a month. This exceeds my mortgage and car payment. They basically expect me to sell all my possessions to go here and live in a tent with my family on campus so I can continue to go here. I have only completed a total of 3 semesters in my lifetime (1 1/2 here) so there is no reason I wouldn't qualify for financial aid and pell grants to cover my tuition. They truly do not know what they are doing. I took out a private loan that exceeded what they asked for by $700 and they told me it isn't enough now and want an additional $800 per month while also charging me late fees for the hold up on an unsubsidized loan. They also charge you 75% of classes you drop even if you drop them by start of week 2 as they (advisors) fail to inform you of this information. They warn you biblically about the wolves in sheep's clothing in the church. This school is exactly that. They laid off administration and teachers that had been there for decades to avoid having to pay their retirement pensions. How christian and Jesus like is that? They do not practice what they preach! Pro is you get a good education here Con is you pay way to much for it and the advisors make you feel unheard and put you into a degree path you did not ask for.

The online work is out of date, they don't tell you how to turn it in or where, and the places where you are meant to turn things in (on THEIR website) don't match the work assigned in the online workbook that THEY wrote, so sometimes the teachers will say, 'you didn't do the work correctly' because there are two separate sets of instructions. The 'modules' are based on different areas of learning so you'll do say, a science lesson unit, and then a math lesson unit, record yourself, and turn in some reflections and lesson plans, but the only direction they really give you in terms of these lessons is, make sure its inclusive and that there's something fun in it like art. No one ever talks to you about the new unit/module and what the focus or goal is. You meet with a cohort of other students to try and figure it out together, and I was usually the only one who could help anyone. Many of my classmates were older and didn't know how to use the website, and one of them told me he never turned anything in and he was still passing (I turned in every single assignment). There are never any recommendations for scripted curriculum or other useful advise teachers would need to know. You will also never learn anything about classroom management other than, don't use a red pen to correct because it will make students feel bad, and don't use a clip chart because that will embarrass them. The way you have to be mentored and do hours is very strict according to the California teachers commission, and they never tell you how it works, contact your mentor teacher, or make it clear exactly what you are supposed to be doing. They don't check that you have your proper emergency credential or explain the difference between a university inter, an emergency credential, a STIP, a PIP, etc and they don't help you apply for it. They give you a handbook, but my pdf never worked correctly, and no one ever responded to my emails when I asked questions I should have been able to read in the handbook that I couldn't open. They also have a contract with apple where they force you to buy a refurbished ipad and dont ever provide you with the receipt for it (I asked). They don't help place you in a school, they don't help with the caltpa, and they don't understand the requirements from the CTC, and they don't know which exams aren't required anymore so they will direct you to take a $400 exam you don't need. You are just paying them for the paperwork, and they will do little to nothing to support you understanding what exactly you are supposed to do. The orientation is 2 hours and it's just a feel good share out about your feelings, and then someone from apple telling you about the apps they offer for teachers that you can use. So, if you really want to teach, but you can't afford to take a year off work to be an intern, you gotta do what you gotta do, but this university is lazy and it's not even through Fresno state, they just rent an office there. Avoid at all costs, in the end its 10k that you wasted for a very difficult career.

Applying here was a massive embarrassing mistake…read more The term had started but nobody had been placed for student teaching. I had even found the program a district near me open to having me placed there, but nothing ever came of it since my advisor kept putting off contacting them. Advisors are difficult to reach, and are more focused on their other postions (this is a side hustle for them). The director recorded himself for 10 minutes in a makeshift mancave through a desktop camera as our "orientation" two days before the start of the term. You're given online modules and a pacing guide and then expected to teach yourself through broken links, outdated curriculum, and cohort meetings you're also told to set up on your own time. I legitimately don't know if any lectures actually take place with any professors at any point. I totally understand being independent and self-driven, but the lack of leadership is beyond apparent. You start off already behind on assignments, readings, and can only catch up by ignoring most of the materials and sources you're thrown in the modules. I did not go through with the program. I dropped out the second day of the term and very fortunately got my full refund. The appeal of a fully online program is obvious, but CalState Teach DO NOT have the resources or infrastructure to fulfill what they claim to give their students. Inquire and clear any doubts you have before paying them anything; trust your gut..
