I’m so happy I came across the Arizona College of Allied Health on google. I requested to receive more information about the college and not even a few days later I get a text from Justin. Justin was very nice and gave me so much information that helped me decide this was the college for me. Before I came here I was at Community Colleges for the last 5 years completing only prerequisites not even in a program yet. When Justin told me I would graduate next year in July getting my DA diploma I was beyond excited. I can’t thank Justin enough for all his help. I just got done with my first track passing all my classes. I could have not done it without Ms. Vosteen. She is the best teacher I’ve ever had at all the schools I’ve been to. I am going to miss being in her classes but I am so excited to continue my journey. Thank you Arizona College of Allied Health for everyone there that I’ve seen have all been so nice and some teachers actually joke around with students instead of being so serious and rude it’s so refreshing being able to be in a environment with teachers like that.
I don't know where to begin. Being frustrated and feeling as though I am giving the runaround, trying to get my diploma and trying to get my official transcript from a school that never answers a phone call during business hours. I never had to rely on a voicemail message to get back in contact with me due to miss understanding of phones calls. I have set up a payment arrangement back in May 2021, and I was told that if I miss a payment out of six months I will have to start all over again. I have been making payments and unfortunately was told that I missed three payments but look at my account and I see they're taking money out of my account. But still won’t give me my diploma. The staff is very rude and have not sympathy or compassion about the students other are trying to make something out of themselves in life. Talking to the staff is like hopping and excepting. Staff that not willing to work with you to try to help me. I've been only help by Miss Sherry, which I was told no longer works there. She's been the only person helping me getting my diploma and trying to get everything situated. I feel frustrated disappointed disgusted and hurt that I can't even depend on the school that I thought would help me succeed in life. This is hurtful and I would not wishes upon no one else. I work so hard live alone have no family here and you're telling me that I can't get any of my transcripts or I can't get my diploma because you guys messed up on your end and you're making me suffer which is not right and unacceptable. As much as I talk about you guys school and the staff that helps me and for someone to sit there and make me feel as though it's my fault is unacceptable. Question would you want to recommend a school to someone? For me at this point I will say no because I see that they're not even trying to help at all but take my money and won't give me my diploma or my transcripts I need to speak to someone and the corporate office as a CEO or CFO that can help me
I am enjoying my experience here so far. I love the instructors and my classmates already and I am happy to have everyone apart of my journey.
They are the best!
This school is very understanding and is very good with making your enrollment happen
I am really confident i made the right decision by choosing Arizona College, The program is off to a great start , the staff is very helpful and welcoming, Eric Cannon and Elaine hedgecock were working with me directly making sure enrollment was stress free, they are awesome , they know what they are doing , quick and efficient. . I recommend Arizona College ,
Great campus, awesome staff, interesting programs, I would recommend this college to anyone who is interested in the medical field. I miss it. I love it. Someday soon I'll return and finish. When life runs a bit smoothly.
Without the help that I received from Neda, beginning my education in the MA program wouldn't have been possible. She walked me through each and every step and was beyond patient and willing to help with all of my questions and concerns. She maintained a level of professionalism that isn't nearly as common these days and I personally wish more people were as helpful as she was. Would definitely recommend contacting her if you desire to receive an education from Arizona College.
The experience was amazing. The help from the financial aid to even doing the admission for the classes was so easy. The staff was very helpful and with the process. I have started class and the teachers have been so great at breaking down the lectures and the assignments.
This school i wouldn't even try they don't help you and they don't like black people
Absolutely love the financial crew and my school counselor Holley Crouch. Truly amazing, understanding staff.. looking forward to continue with this specific school and further my future the best way the have my interest at heart.
I love Arizona College great way to start school and advance on your new career
only my second day but so far I am loving it, wish it was in person instead of online but we will get through it
Really amazing school
Great place to go . Staff are very helpful, and understanding. financials covers everything . The are so determine for you to succeed in a career not just education but stability with the time you spend at their college. Very small but perfect for people with anxiety.. I love it here.. I look forward to graduating in 7.5 months..
If I could give 0 stars, I would. Every campus that I have spoken to someone on the phone has been rude and dismissive and not willing to help... I attended the nursing program in 2016...completed one semester...and had to withdraw from the second (before it started) because My son was having health issues. They told me to come back whenever I wanted that they would gladly accept me back into the program where I left off... which was absolutely not true! When I tried to go back....i was told I could be accepted into the current semester...Which would have been fine except....they were changing the curriculum the following semester...Which if I would have gone back would have forced me to start all over again.... Also, When I asked If I would be able to have a financial credit for the first semester that I completed because they changed the curriculum, I was told to speak with the head of the nursing dept and then she told me that was a question for financial aid who then referred me back to the nursing dept head...and they both said that they couldn’t help me. Don’t waste your time nor effort here. $24,000 down the drain for absolutely nothing! And not only that, But when you try to have your transcripts sent, it takes forever to actually get a hold of someone...and with the rude staff on the phone at every single campus it’s ridiculous!
Look, the program is expensive, but it covers EVERYTHING, including books, uniform, etc. They want you to succeed and know most students by name. I went too community college for three years and have 2 associates with nothing to show for the work I've done. I cant find a job without a training program. My advisor Natashia is always only a phone call away, and Sherri, who is the one who helps us get jobs so always so kind and goes so far above and beyond for us. So far this is a much better experience and feel like this is the right choice for me.
Medical ASSISTANTS You can go to a community college and pay a quarter of the price you pay here. Credits don’t transfer so if you want to get your BSN later you have to start all over. PLEASE JUST GO TO A COMMUNITY COLLEGE!!!
I attended AZC for the medical assisting with phlebotomy program. It was the best decision I have made to attend this school. The teachers and staff are so helpful and want you to succeed.
Everyone has their own opinions about this school, everywhere and everyone needs something to improve but it’s like this. We are attending college not high school, if we have to go out of our way to get questions answered or confirmed..then we gotta do what we gotta do, it shouldn’t be a big deal if our teachers are a bit unorganized because really at the end of the day we are the only ones that have to make sure we are fed the knowledge that we need just as long as we open our mouth. Stop focusing on the problem and start worrying about the solution. I am a senior at the school here and I tell you I was afraid at first because I was always a failure in life. Only knew how to quit! But look now I’m a SENIOR going out to externs with no Ds!!!!!!! That’s the first time in my life I’ve ever not had Ds, the staff and teachers care about us, pushing us to come to school everyday especially because it being an EXCELLED PROGRAM they don’t want us missing anything, the rules can be a bit bugging if you don’t follow em but Jobs got rules no matter what and that’s all their doing is preparing us to leave the school perked up and ready. This program has helped me in many ways and I am proud to be a student from here. You’ll be fine if you just embrace and respect the opportunities life gives you!!
Great school to attend i go here know I started back in 2014 and didn’t complete it then but they work with you and they are very supportive and helpful if you just communicate I recommend this school to everyone
Im a student here now! I can't get an email answered!
I've worked here 2 years and by far my favorite job! I am a graduate of Arizona College when they only offered Medical and Dental Assisting many moons ago. To come back and work with great staff and students is very rewarding! All the staff has a common ground which is doing all we can for the students. I enjoy working here and think we offer students the opportunity of being the best "them" they could be!
After watching my mother and sister graduate from AZC and work successfully in their field, it has been a pleasure assisting hundreds of students get to their career goals in less than a years time! I am proud to be a member of an exceptional team, focused on helping people better their lives through education. Here's to the next graduating class at AZC!!!
Definitely look into other options before attending school here which I studied dental. I was on the deans list my whole time here, and learned a lot. Just know you'll be completely on your own. You'll face a lot of issues with the staff and students here. I feel like I kept facing obstacle after obstacle. Was being verbally attacked by two students in my class the teacher didn't try to interfere. (Teacher later apologized to me for letting it happen) I'm the one who had to go talk to the ty (I'm guessing the dean at the time). He told me because I was 18 I wouldn't know what professionalism is. Odd? Because you telling me that is very unprofessional. He also told me to calm my anxiety. As if it's something you can turn off and on. Medical teachers always had something to say about my hair, uniform. Clearly to worried about the wrong things. this school and staff broke me I'm surprised I'm still here today.
Called to ask for information an didn't feel welcome an question how I wud afford to pay horrible advisers in this collage instead of incouring u to do better glad wont assist this collage Don't bother to take your time an hand them your money there better schools out there
My daughter had a horrible experience with the MA program here! Teachers are immature, rude & ignorant!! This school is all for profit and nothing else. Waste of money... They place students in outdated doctor offices for their externships that do not hire the students, but only use the school/students for free labor! And when then do say they have found you a job they want to offer $11/hour while min wage is $10.50!!!?? What a slap in the face for paying a so called education program. You don’t need to be a certified MA, most places hire and do on the job training! DO NOT WASTE YOUR $$ OR TIME!!!!
Worse school I ever went to in my life DO NOT GO TO THIS SCHOOL ITS HORRIBLE UNPROFESSIONAL AND ALL THEY WANT IS YOUR MONEY.
Only given one star because I have to. Where do I start? Do not waste your time or money going to this school. The education is very expensive and very mediocre to say the least. None of the staff care about you as a student. If you are struggling with a class or instructor and go to the dean, Tracy Schreiner, about it she will tell you “maybe you aren’t meant to be a nurse”. She also told our cohort as a group that we were going to be terrible nurses and she hopes she doesn’t get us to care for her when we graduate and quote “I will be sure that no other school will accept you”. The director of nursing, Rhonda Doolen, will bust into class in the middle of lecture and very unprofessionally yell at you about something that could have genuinely been put in a email. She hires her friends as instructors so if you go to her about issues she will tell you maybe it’s your fault. Maybe you aren’t trying hard enough. Maybe YOU are doing it wrong. And that’s just the people in charge of watching over the program! The instructors are so unorganized and seems as though they do not come up with lesson plans at the beginning of the semester. The material is taught incorrectly and out of order. The classes are not in the order they should be in which makes learning extremely difficult because its like being taught to read and then learning the letters of the alphabet. They do not offer tutoring per Rhonda Doolen so you can’t get any extra help offered to you. Majority of the students refer to AZC as Youtube University because everything we have learned has come from google and YouTube videos. Their sim lab is a joke. The mannequins never work and when they do the Sim instructor doesn’t want to clean up the mess the mannequins will make if she turned them on. Which brings me to Mrs. A. She is the sim instructor and instead of teaching you the hands on learning you need to get in simulation she plays the role of the mother of the patient and yells and berates you the whole time because “we will run in to those kinds of patients”. She doesn’t actually teach us anything. Most importantly, only 1 or 2 other schools take their credits if you fail out and need to transfer your gen ed credits! This school’s accrediting body is ABHES and they aren’t taken by very many schools across the country. Nobody will take your core nursing credits. This means that if you fail out of the program the semester you graduate, you have I start from square one again. This program is only worried about one thing. That their students that graduate pass the NCLEX the first time around to keep their ratings up. They don’t care if that means a class starts with 40 people and only 3 graduate (real case scenario) as long as those 3 can pass the NCLEX the first time. This is not being written from a student that failed out of the program and is now bitter, I withdrew when I realized there was no way I could graduate with a solid nursing foundation and it was going to impact my life goals.
Staff was very friendly and professional. A phone call from miles away was smoothly directed to the Nursing Department, Lori Young answered all my questions and I’m very excited to discuss admission requirements with her next week!! Thanks Lori :) -Melissa
This school is a joke. They will blame students for not keeping track as to when they will go to extern. When you sign up they tell you one date and when the day gets closer they change it and make you look like the idiot. I tell everybody I know to not go to this school. Some teachers are nice, but that's the only good thing about it.
I went through their whole BSN nursing program, which wasn't cheap. And now I cannot continue education with ASU because Arizona College is not regionally accredited. So yeah you get your BSN, but for anyone that wants more than their BSN this isn't the school for you. Now I have to figure out with school will take me. Very inconvenient. As if the whole 2 years I was here wasn't disorganized enough.....
One the best place to get your degree in health business courier. So greatful to be there. Awesome staff and students.
Great place to stay in school.
Not bad. The Medical Assisting program was pretty good. I ran into a couple of unprofessionalism incidences from the staff, but the trick to success is to keep your head held high and your mouth shut. I also didn't appreciate that the nursing students were held in such high regard that they let them get away with being out of dress code, but again, it's all water under the bridge now. For the MA program here, you are paying about $4-5k more than Pima, but the school is newer and cleaner, you also finish about 4 months sooner, and the staff doesn't nag you so much. You'd think for that kinda money, though, they'd offer getting you signed up to get your certification, but they don't, so you're on your own there. All in all, it was a good enough experience. I appreciate that, from some of the staff, they really pushed their students to be professional and classy. Something so many millennial's lack in today's society. I'd definitely recommend this school over Pima.
They really went all out when I was enrolling for classes. I had no idea what I was doing but they walked me through it!#
This school stole my financial aid money and to top it off the President Nick Mansour called me personally to tell me he would not give me my certificate while I was on my extern because I complained with the BBB.. Stay away from this place it will leave you in debt with nothing to show in the end.
One Of The Most Down 2 Earth Government Schools I have Ever Witnessed. The Growth, Has Soared Beyond Its Stock Marketed Price. Great 1-on-1 Social Interactions, With All Peeps @ Most Levels. My French Teacher Was The Bomb, Even Tho My Clownish Ways Gave Her A Hard Time. Hey I Was 19 Then. Also, The M.A.D.D Classes I had To Take, Was Within One Of Their Nice Facilities. Thanks 4 Helping Change My Perspective About Many Struggled Quarrels.

DISCRIMINATION could not get a message because I had a service dog with me had to be seen by my doctor to get a release then was refused a week later because I thought the doctor release was rediculous n so did my doctor then I was lied to by the director Mr Ryan who said he would investigate n get back with me didn't do that
Arizona College was a great experience for me to continue my education for a new career. The process for signing up for classes was very simple and explained in detail. The classes flowed together with the curriculum making studying less trying. The Pharmacy Technician instructors were very knowledgeable and experienced within the field. They gave great hands on experience to the students, so they would be prepared for the real work environment. I couldn't have asked for a better place that fit my needs to better myself with a new career. I graduated in December 2013, currently employed from my externship site and loving my new career.
