    I graduated from California College San Diego (CCSD). However, unlike others, I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested. For me, the major advantage of studying at CCSD was their accelerated degree programs which allowed me to complete my BS in as little as 36 months. Also, their programs are accredited by recognized agency and are widely accepted by employers.

    I agree with John. I graduated from there and they were horrible. The education is really sub-par. The staff doesn't care about education, the only time they make an effort is when they are about to lose their accreditation. Most of their programs are constantly on probation. On site visitors from the state boards always interviewing students, why they haven't shut it down is beyond me. I know several people who spent the huge amount of money to go to school here and couldn't pass their boards. The school preys upon students, their only qualification to get into this school is that you qualify for financial aid. The slower the students the more money they make in requiring them to retake classes. I was lucky and passed all my exams, but have many friends struggling due to the very poor instructors. Some of their pass rates on the boards are some of the lowest in the land, especially the RRT.

    Don't even get me started about their shady financial aid department. The largest portion of the college is dedicated to recruitment of new students, not education. This place is the definition of a for profit business, not an educational institution. Although I graduated and am working in the field, out of my class there were only about 4 to begin working as RT's within 9 months out of a class of over 20. If I had a time machine I would not have enrolled here.

    I would not recommend this school to anyone. School is very expensive and the education is extremely poor. There medical certifications are expired. Also, some of there programs (X-ray and Respiratory Therary are either on probation or on hold). Ask detailed questions about job placement and student certifications earned by prior students as well as percentage of students completing their programs.

    In short - this school is below standard and should be either closed or get new management which actualy cares about the education. Seems school only cares about enrollment numbers and not about the students or educational standards.
