This school is a joke, this is the second time I've dealt with being unenrolled with no communication, I first enrolled in medical billing and coding and within the 3rd week they tried to say they didn't receive the documents they needed in time and had to unenroll me, well I had everything documented where I sent my paperwork in before the deadline they just failed to pull the documents until after the deadline time. They were going to make me start all my classes back over I spoke with a manager and sent him all of the documents and he reinstated me up to my current classes. My friend had the same issue and had to start hers over. Well I decided to switch to pharmacy tech I have two months before graduation and 3 weeks before my externship I wake up today to do my work and low and behold I'm unenrolled!! I'm beyond pissed, i spoke with admissions to try and find out the reason and she claims its my background check, I have already had my background check cleared by the Alabama board of pharmacy and also have emails stating where my licensing has been approved. I speak to financial aid because I was supposed to have a disbursement sent tommorrow and I find it odd that they wanted to unenroll me before my 26-27 grants/loans were added to my account and now because of cancelation I wouldn't receive what was supposed to be sent to me. She states that I would have to re enroll and let them redo my financial aid. To hell with that I wasted a year on maintaining a 4.0 GPA and honors roll just for them to try and seek more money and I feel like that's alot of what is going on with this school. I've also read some complaints on facebook where girls had one day before graduation and they were unenrolled. It's absolutely crazy for the ones that have graduated I guess yall got lucky....

I was entirely unenrolled after my second class because during the five week period for that course I was hospitalized twice, extremely sick a large portion of the time, then had a major family death that caused me to have to drive across the country. I had tried to keep up with my work to the best of my ability, but it's a bit difficult when you have all this going on. I just barely failed the class, yet instead of letting me retake the course, or get an extension, after I spoke with multiple advisors who told me that is what would happen, I was instead entirely unenrolled without any kind of notice or warning til AFTER it was finalized. Now, if I want to go back, I have to start from the very beginning with the course I'd already taken and passed. The school wasted my time, my money, and did nothing but lie to me. All they want from you is money, non-profit my ass. The only communication you ever get is an advisor who will call you seventeen times a week to check on you, but feign care and just say finish your work and nothing else, they don't care if you're lying in a hospital bed barely able to move.

I have asked anyone not to accept or go to UMA. They will have you do all your courses and stuff just to tell you later that your background came and they would cancel everything you did are they not professional. They really just want your money from financial aid please please do not go there.

They stole my financial aid then lied how can I file a claim against them

Horrible admissions was for May 11th .my financial aid went through and they cancelled my admissions today

I’m so sorry to inform you all that my wife passed away, but if she could say anything it would be, she didn’t think she could do it at first but she stay with it and finished. It was a very great experience and it was worth it.

It's a scam it yall thinking about going don't they steal our money

What made my experience exceptional was my perseverance. Numerous individuals, including family and friends, advised me that I was too old to begin anew and return to education. I nearly succumbed to their opinions. However, Ultimate Medical Academy provided me with opportunities to work with new vendors, which I had never imagined I would accomplish. Despite the challenges, I graduated with honors and earned my associate degree in Medical Billing and Coding. I remained on the Dean's List throughout the entire program, an achievement of which I am very proud. Now, I have gained respect and instill the same lesson in my grandchildren: that one is never too old to start over and that perseverance is essential. If I could do this at 69 years of age, I am confident that anyone can. Thank you, Uma, for guiding me along the way.
