The broader for-profit education industry saw enrollment rise during the recession as unemployment rose and people sought new skills to improve their job prospects. But the industry has recently been hit by regulatory changes and criticism that the schools were leaving students saddled with huge college loans, often payday loans online applyings and slim job prospects.

Eliminate student loans and these for-profit schools would go away overnight and tuition would rapidly decline at "legitimate" schools. Of course, the other schools are running the same debt scam so that they can over-charge for many watered down degrees.

THANK YOU for realizing the disgusting truth about these schools.

Harrison College's Columbus location (a for-profit school) was recently mentioned in the Columbus newspaper as seeking assistance from Rep. Pence. They know that Congress is on to their game.
