I began the Surgical Technology program…
I began the Surgical Technology program at the beginning of 2025 and completed the coursework around August–September 2025. It is now March 2026, and I still have not received a clinical placement. Since completing the program, I have repeatedly reached out to the school regarding my clinical assignment. Unfortunately, responses have been very delayed, and I have been given several explanations such as holidays, hospitals being busy, or hospitals already being full with students. The school informed me that they are affiliated with many hospitals in California and provided me with a list of affiliated facilities. However, when I personally contacted the hospitals on that list, many of them stated that they are not affiliated with the program. I reported this issue to the school, but instead of receiving a clear resolution, I was told to continue reaching out again. Because of these ongoing delays, lack of communication, and the absence of real support from the program, I have requested a refund of my tuition. At this point, I simply want my money back, as the school has not been helping me resolve this issue and it has already cost me an entire year of my education. It has now been two weeks since I submitted my refund request and I have still not received a response. I would appreciate a prompt update regarding the status of my refund request.
