I would like to first make it clear that this review is not coming from a bitter person with awful marks. I am maintaining an average over 95%. I do my work.. and have a positive outlook. BUT , I am begging and pleading that anyone even considering this CORPORATE money grabbing facility to achieve their goals to look into a real College. I know the sound of flexible, small class sizes, and all the other fast track fast talk sounds great.. But you will be sooo much further ahead to take the time to do it right the first time. I am worried that even with these grades I am throwing my time and money out the window. I speak the truth!

Great School, I attended Trillium College at the Burlington Campus and graduated from the Dental Office Chairside Assisting program. The instructors are great; they are very knowledgeable in their field. I had a great experience at placement, the faculty was amazing and they were very helpful and willing to help me learn more. I would highly recommend going to Trillium College!

Hello everyone,
I would like to warn any highschool students or adult students planning on coming to Trillium College to READ THROUGH THE FOLLOWING:
1. Trillium only wants your MONEY: they do not care about your needs, wants, or beliefs in what a real education is.
2. Your concerns regarding other students behaviour when it is unacceptable is talked about but never dealt with
3. Teacher and student relationships I find to be unprofessional at times i.e personal information is shared b/w one another.
4.If you need to get kits for certain programs; massage therapy or dental, you are wasting your money (over priced and half the time the you are missing parts of the kit)
5. Favouritism: The school is GUILTY of this notion. If the teacher likes you, easy ride for you. If they do not expect to be treated like DIRT!
6. Charging for students services/oil/etc: This statement is in regards to the Massage Therapy program, but other students such as Dental students will understand this as well. Trillium college charges for students to perform certain services, and also charges them for refills on supplies! The amount of money made through the students services should be enough to provide free oil for the Massage Students.
7. Disrespect/unprofessional/other words unspoken....I have been promised for another opportunity to re-due my exams, and yet every attempt I have made to make sure it happens is ignored! I have paid a lot of money for the program, I WOULD LIKE TO FINISH! TC SUCKS -

Trillium did great by me! I took CSW and got a job right out of school. My instrutor was awesome. Mr. Cleary provided me with a well rounded experience and a great teaching style. He really cares about the field and his students. I owe alot to him and to Trillium. I hightly recommend this school and the CSW class

I attended a information session, where I filled out my name, address and the program I was interested in taking. The next day I learned about all the bad reviews and decided not to attend. Few weeks later, I get a call from Samantha at the Oshawa college saying I had signed up and that I will be billed $300 dollars If I fail to submit a cancellation request. I guess the reviews were right, this school just wants the money, I highly doubt they want to educate someone. They are just in it for the $$$$$$$$$$..

This school seems to be incredibly unorganized and at best would still be considered by many sub-standard. While the instructors seem to be dedicated and committed to the students and teaching, they appear to lack the required resources that the school should provide. I completed the Massage Therapy program and found myself consistently disappointed by the unorganized management of the campus and "fly-by-the-seat-of-your pants" rule making. While I do feel as though I learned relevant material, I found it hard to focus due to the negative and mediocre environment. I would not recommend any person I care about to attend this school or invest any funds with this company.

I went to Kingston campus, CSSW program and can not believe the school has not been shut down.Every test was open book.It is true this college is all about the college making money with little or no regard to the students.Have you ever been somewhere where the manager is making up the rules as she goes along, well I have. No one was treated equally,and we were treated as if we were simpletons.The instructor had absolutely no experience at teaching and we as students were given the task of making lesson plans and teaching the class while she sat and marked us.I would strongly recommend that any person interested in going to school go to a real school.I finished off my classroom portion of the college and went on my placement and began learning .The school was a waste of my time. I never got a graduation diploma so after several months went to them and they had to get their head office to make me another one as they had misplaced mine. Stay away from this school if it could be called one.

I went to this school(if thats what you want to call it) and this was a few years ago, and I still am angry over the owners and I feel they should have been shut down a long time ago!! There was not even a real teacher for our class and I learnt nothing, and wasted my time and my money, I then went to Sir Sandford College because I decided I wanted a real college andthat is exackly what I got. Excellent education, so Please for anyone out there, do not get caught up with anyone or anything to do with Trillium College in Oshawa. They are not real!!

Going to Trillium was probably the worst decision I have ever made!
This BUSINESS, because that's what is it a business and not an education center, is all about the MONEY! They don't care about their students and they will enforce some rules to some students, and not to others! They are the WORST! Campus Manager has no problem lying right to your face!
I took Massage Therapy, very few learning tools! Why can't they afford a skeleton that isn't falling apart? I think a year ago when I was in my first year, I heard they were getting a new and improved Buckey (skeleton)... I haven't seen it yet!
We are also required to do Outreaches as part of the course, instead of advertising for Massage Therapy and how beneficial it is for your health, they are advertising the school and their programs and using US, the students, as bait!. "Here's a free massage! Please come to our school"What would you think if someone said, "MALL COLLEGE"? That is exactly what Trillium is.
THEY FRIGGEN SUCK!!!! Please go to another school if you can! I don't want anyone else to go through what me and my classmates have had to go through.
