PLEASE DONT GO HERE
PLEASE DONT GO HERE I attended this school and received my associates in Medical Billing and Coding. They told me if I did well in my classes I would receive excellent help with job placement once I graduated. Well, I graduated with a 4.0 GPA and they tried to place me in jobs that for one, were not even close to medical billing and/or coding jobs, and two, told me I would only get placed in jobs that paid no higher than $14/hour.... In this economy... After racking up 24k in student loan debt. I went on to get my CPC through the AAPC, called UMA back to see if they would help place me in a job, and I got the same responses. I wish I could report them and get all my money back, even if that meant they took my degree from me. Because this school is the biggest joke and most jobs do not even accept this school as being credited. Now I am in student loan debt and for what? PLEASE DO NOT APPLY HERE and go take a course through the AAPC. I wish I did.
