I used STLCC - Forest Park for transfer classes to compile for my degree at a four-year university only to find that I was not going to be treated fairly by the staff. Although there are a number of things to mention, I will only summarize two incidents. I ordered a book online and made an attempt to pick it up only to find that I would be searched at the ENTRANCE and EXIT like a prisoner. I had nothing in my hand but my wallet and the young lady at the door stated that she needed to check me. Once... Read More I picked up my PREPAID book and exited the store minutes later she asked to check my bag as well. A few weeks later I made an attempt to complete an exam online for my class and once I submitted the exam for completion the screen blinked. I contacted my instructor about the ISSUE only to be accused of NOT commpleting the exam and asked to retake it. This instructor did not consult with the system that their school use for their online testing nor did the instructor make any other attempt to ASSIST me as the student. I had to meet with the Department Chairman, Dean and VP of Affairs only to be told the instructor offered to reset the exam for you and you chose not to take it prior to the deadline as the syllabus states. This incident went round and round for almost two months only to find that they had no intentions on finding out through the online testing system how to retrieve the exam that was submitted instead of saying I did not do my part. None of the staff acted professional or may I say did their job to RECTIFY the issue that was originally with the testing sytem. The only results were that I needed to retake the exam without making any attempts to investigate the matter properly. If students are to be held accountable for the school's testing system then I find that to be a complete rip off being that its our tuitions paying the bills which means its their job to ;provide a service never done!!! Do not choose this school unless you are asking for trouble or to be treated unfairly!
