I was ready for a career change 3 years ago as I was burnt out on dead-end jobs that were not getting me anywhere. I had no career and so I went to Dawn Career Institute for assistance, wishing I had researched this school further for signing my life away with them. It truly is a diploma mill that takes any student willing to join the school. I went with the medical billing program and the school's idea of training students for medical billing is via textbooks and online reading. I was really hoping I would get a job, considering this school cost $11,000 to learn out of a textbook. 6 months into the program, I realized I was not going to get a job. Each classified ad I read stated you had to have 2+ years of EXPERIENCE before they would consider you. With no experience, I knew I would not be finding work in medical billing and so I tried to drop out of the school halfway through.
Admin from the school called me daily, harrassing me about my decision to leave the program, threatening me with huge bills since I did not finish out the program. They talked me into switching over to medical office instead of the billing program, so I stayed with the school and continued the same learning format. Classroom training does not qualify me for a job in a medical office. I have sent out trillions of resumes, it seemed like, applying to hospitals and offices and using dozens of job boards. Dawn Career Services sent me out on 2 very part-time job interviews, which led nowhere, and I never received help from Career Services after that. Their idea of helping you find work is by telling you about job boards and how to apply.
I left Dawn Career School 3 years ago and I am still seeking work. I complained to DE Department of Education and Dawn sucked up to them, saying I was not seeking work hard enough. I spend hours online putting out resumes and not seeking hard enough. What a joke. I really want a refund as this school does nothing but waste money.
I have read other reviews about Dawn Career and I am not the only student pissed off at this joke of a school as they are not finding a job, either.
