If I could give this school a negative rating, I would…read more After finishing my undergraduate degree, I entered Antioch University's Clinical Psychology program with a specialization in Spiritual and Depth Psychology. I was young, hopeful, and trusting, drawn to Antioch because of its stated commitment to healing, inclusivity, and social justice. Those values aligned perfectly with mine. I came in excited and ready to grow. But what I experienced was the opposite. The support I was promised never existed. I was given only Google Voice typing as an accommodation, which did not meet my needs. When I explained that I could not type or write due to my disability, they accused me of asking for too much and blamed me for struggling. I was placed in the position of having to email constantly through severe hand and wrist pain. I begged for temporary support until I could hire a personal assistant--something that should have been easily granted. They refused. Eventually, friends had to volunteer to type for me. Once I had real support (from outside the school), my pain decreased, my anxiety eased, and I could finally focus. That support should have come from Antioch. Instead, I was met with coldness, judgment, and punishment. One professor demanded that I translate the DSM-5 into Farsi during my accommodation crisis. The faculty decided this would somehow help me succeed, even though I clearly explained that I process and understand information better in English, not Farsi. This demand showed how little effort they made to truly listen to me or meet my real needs. And this happened before AI tools were widely available--I couldn't rely on technology for help. I depended on the school to provide real, human-centered accommodations. They failed. One professor also issued a formal letter of concern when I showed up to office hours to ask for help. I even told a professor, "I don't know how to advocate for myself yet--please coach me." Instead of support, they used my vulnerability against me, labeling me "unprofessional." They punished me for trying to grow. I was left alone to figure everything out. Professors didn't hold real office hours. Tutoring was unreliable. I had to build my own support system outside of the university just to survive. I often wondered: Why am I going under $150,000 loan for if the most basic support doesn't exist for students like me? I attended Antioch between 2021-2022, at a time when real, human-centered support was essential. Instead of coaching me through challenges, they put me on a remediation plan. And after meeting every unreasonable demand they gave me, they still unjustly removed me from the program. It broke my spirit. It harmed my health. It gave me PTSD. To Antioch Faculty and Leadership: When a student with a disability tells you they're struggling, your duty is not to shame, retaliate, or punish. It is to coach, guide, and build an environment where they can safely grow. Every student deserves a chance to thrive--not just in words, but in action. Stop projecting. Start listening. Lead with humility, not ego. Education is sacred work. To Future Students: If you have a disability, or if you believe education should be about healing and empowerment, be cautious. Get every accommodation in writing. Protect yourself. You deserve more than empty promises--you deserve real support. If you have been mistreated by a school, remember: You are not broken. Yes, students are always growing--but the system must also grow. When schools fail to support students, it's not the student who is the problem. The system that failed you needs healing and serious self-reflection. Blaming students only hides the real work that institutions must do. Thank you for reading. And to every student who's been silenced, pushed aside, or retraumatized: I see you. I stand with you. Keep going. Side Note: During my time at Antioch, one of the few faculty members who truly tried to help me was also retaliated against. It was horrifying to witness--and it showed me how deeply fear ruled the system, harming not only students but compassionate faculty too. I share this because I believe no school, no business, no system should ever operate from fear. Our world today urgently needs institutions led by kindness, love, and heart-centered human beings. That begins with each individual taking responsibility for their own healing--learning to detach from ego, letting titles and degrees serve humanity rather than dominate it. The "pieces of paper" we've given so much value to--degrees, credentials, status--should not be used as tools of terrorization and exploitation. They were meant to empower and uplift, not to harm. Until systems choose love over fear, they cannot truly claim to be serving humanity. I hope for a future where all educational institutions lead from the heart--or step aside to make room for those who will.

WARNING: Think very carefully before enrolling here. My…read moreexperience with this school and its clinical psychology program was deeply disappointing and distressing. I felt unsupported, misled by what was promised, and shocked by the quality of both teaching and leadership. If you value real learning, mentorship, or integrity, this may not be the place for you. I left feeling disillusioned and angry. I wouldn't wish this experience on anyone. Please stay away and protect your time, money, and well-being. This was, without a doubt, one of the worst educational experiences of my life.

After this short time, I feel like a completely different version of myself than when I first enrolled. Being a student at this school involves more than just learning the basic information required to check all the boxes for a degree or licensure. If you're open to intense academic and emotional work that has the potential to help you become a more centered and capable person and professional, then I highly recommend looking into this school. My experience with Meridian has changed the way I see and respond to the world. As I grow into a more capable, confident, and authentic version of myself, I engage with the world more comfortably than I used to. I have a great deal of room to grow, but now I have the tools to more easily pinpoint and take my next steps to keep developing. This is because Meridian encourages students to reflect on, discuss, deeply explore, and embody the many aspects of human experience and development. I appreciate that they focus on self-reflection, experiential learning, working through challenging emotions, and dialoguing with peers to build developmental practitioner skills. The variety of opportunities to practice what is learned truly helps me to embody the lessons. At the same time, the academics are rigorous, well-researched, well-planned, and up-to-date. This combination of information and practice is what I think makes the program so effective at potentially transforming the student. I say "potentially" because ultimately the student is responsible for their own transformation. Not everyone will align with the ways of this school, and it seems that the students who feel less aligned do have a harder time getting through it. But also, some of them are still going strong and honestly will probably grow more than those who don't have a hard time. The workload is intense, but also manageable (especially with the asynchronous schedule and virtual access). I am attending school full-time while working full-time, running a podcast with another student, and starting a business. The staff and faculty will not hold your hand. However, I do feel that they supply you with everything you need. Sometimes that includes NOT holding your hand and letting you work through the challenges and discomfort that go along with claiming your own path. This type of transformation can be uncomfortable because it requires you to constantly reframe the way you look at life and to reflect on challenging experiences, but the program is also designed to help you learn to be more comfortable with being uncomfortable. If you are ready to take responsibility for yourself, your professional path, your actions, and how you approach the world, then this might be exactly the challenge you need to become a leader in your own life and in your community. Regarding my own personal path, I don't think I could have gotten a better education. *** I volunteered to spend way too much time writing this review (when I really should be doing homework) because I feel so much gratitude to the staff and faculty. You can tell they care by how much thought and energy they dedicate to developing the best possible learning experience and environment. My life is exponentially better because of their hard work. They taught me to be more concise than I am in this review, but what can I say? My passion and gratitude for this school have flooded over in the form of words. Now back to homework...

At first, the staff seemed very welcoming, and I thought I had made the right choice. Unfortunately, once I was enrolled, communication was poor and getting consistent answers became difficult. One thing that stood out was the amount of turnover. During my time there, multiple instructors and the student advisor left unexpectedly, which created even more confusion. As a student, it didn't inspire much confidence in the program. When I decided to withdraw, the Director of Education didn't ask why I was leaving or whether there was anything the school could improve. Instead, I was simply sent the withdrawal paperwork I requested. It gave me the impression that retaining students or addressing concerns wasn't a priority. One of my biggest concerns was the financial transparency. I wasn't informed until orientation that the Sterile Processing program wasn't covered by FAFSA. By that point, I had already gone through the enrollment process and made plans around attending. I believe information this significant should be communicated much earlier so prospective students can make a fully informed decision before committing. Another issue was the inconsistency regarding the program format. Several of my classmates and I were given different information about whether the class would be hybrid, which caused unnecessary confusion and frustration. Based on my personal experience, I felt that enrollment and tuition seemed to take priority over clear communication and student support. If you're considering this school, I encourage you to read both the positive and negative reviews carefully before making your decision.

The schools that I visited though out that year was some pretty name brand schools but they really did not make you feel very welcoming. I was actually told by one of my colleague at work about this school. I was very hesitant about calling since I was not aware of the school, but when I called and talked with one of the staff members she was very friendly and provided me with a lot of information. When I first walked into CES college, I felt this warm feeling inside, literally like I was at home. The staff was very friendly and attentive. I immediately went home and told my husband that I found the school that I wanted to go to. CES college will provide you with everything that you will need in order to succeed in the nursing world and more. All the staff want you to succeed and they help you at achieving that goal. Mr K the nursing instructor is very informative and he pushes you to reach that goal. He does not let you quit or say that you cannot do this. When you are done with your school you will have the knowledge to go out and pass your NCLEX that is how much this school prepares you. From the first day of school to the last day of school you will know what you need to know. I too passed my NCLEX on the first try, and it is the thanks to Mr K for always believing in his students, and telling us that with hard work it pays off. And he was right. Remember Mr K is always right.
