All I can say with 100% certainty is I that have never heard bad, all good from about 6 or so people who's kids have attended or are still enrolled.

There is Keiser college near my former hometown. My company (medical) hired several Keiser student without any problem. They are now accredited with the State. Yes, it's true they're expensive. They are better than any community college because 1.) small class size 2.) one by one with teacher and 3.) help available 24/7. The dropout rate is so small, compared to community colleges where there is high dropout rate.

One interesting thing about Keiser is you must dress up, like a professional worker, to class everyday.

Default School expenses

The school is very expensive comapred to others. But it seems good if you are going back to school or want to specialize rather than talking a bunch of BS coarses that just waste your time.

Default Keep looking

Keiser is one of a number of what I would term "substandard" schools. Like American InterContinental and others of the same calibre, most students only need a pulse and money to get in. They all charge a ridiculous fee and really do a disservice to those with little means. I say this from first hand experience. Now, having said this, of course it's what you make of your school experience.

I would strongly suggest that you do your research and find out who is really employing students from Keiser and whether that is what you want.

Default Not enough information.

Okay, the negative statement is one of pure opinion. The guy might know what he is talking about but he has given us nothing to go on.

Here are the things I would like to know:

1) How is its academic accreditation?

2) Do credits from Keiser transfer to schools such as UCF and BCC?

3) What is the quality of instruction?

If it is substandard, how is it substandard? What is wrong with it?
