PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU APPLY. I attended Allen in 2011. when I applied the lady was super nice. But it was found out later that she was told to say whatever she needed to to get me to sign up. I wanted to learn this medical coding program to be able to work from home. She told me that yes this was the place for that. I was told by her that Allen, upon graduation will give you everything you need to set up an at home office and that you will be working for many offices. they will send you the work and you just have to type it in. I was sold. About halfway through the year I was then told that no, we don't set you up with everything you need but that we will place you in a job and that they will give us on the job training for 6 months then they will set you up to work from home. Ok I guess that makes sense. however, the last week there they dropped the ball on us. they said no we do not help you with anything like that. we only give you training everything else is on you. Not only have I not found a job, but even if I were to be able to find a job. What they trained us on (ICD-9) was phased out soon after we graduated. The class had asked if we should learn ICD-10 but we were told that they would not change to this code for many years. but everywhere I looked they had already begun to transition. This is not a school to get involved in. I am over 10 years into this student loan and I am paying for a waste of time and a mistake.

This is a great school. Although COVID did minimize the days I could be on Campus I feel prepared to start my internship. The teachers and administration have been kind and helpful. I am really looking forward to succeed in the Medical field. Thank you Allen School!

I attended this school many years ago when the M.O.A. course first started at Montague St. However, it sucks up your financial aid as if they are real college and you need to pay the difference or take out a loan. It's not an accredited school. When you ready to go to college you can't use any of their credits. You have to take classes over, costing more time and money. The Allen school should register themselves to be accredited then making you waste your time in earning credits that you can't use or transfer to a real college. They should be honest that they are not accredited especially when you are young and have no clue! If I knew then what I know now, I wouldn't have done it!

This school is bad and unprofessional.This school and the people who works there just want money.For instance ; Intership site sucks and they send you anywhere even if you uncomfortable and location .This school doesn’t cares about no one except money and they promise it find you a job after program completed and can’t even get a job as yet .They are fraud also according to New York State department of education.i have gpa 4.0 and still can’t get a job and you have to paid extra money to go state test which should required by the school not us going by ourself .do not go to this school .

The staff at Allen School is very approachable and caring

I’m so happy attending this school! The teachers r perfect, an they do they best to make us learn 👍👍👍

The Instructors at Allen school are very kind and helpful. They help you understand the concepts ,and go through with you as a class. The school needs to start having tutoring section instead of lying about , “of course,there’s tutoring.” Mostly students struggle and I recommend there should be enough staff that has the time to assist students after school.

I Love The Allen School And I Only Been There For 2 Weeks.
