I later found out around 2 or 3 months before I graduated from my 21 month program that, Not only had they lied about cost but i cannot transfer my credits anywhere to continue my degree.

Westwood held a school meeting and told everyone that they no longer were accredited but that they should have the accredidation back within 6 months and we would all then be ‘grandfathered’ in and our credits would then become transferrable.

This of coarse, has yet to occur. This upset me very much because then i couldnt figure out what the hell i paid for in the first place. Not only was my degree worth nothing but I am in debt for 35000 dollars (and getting higher) because of it.

I, at first, had the apex loan that they lied to me about and said it would only be at 6% and later turned out to be at 18% interstest rate.

After my first day of school, she promptly disappeared and i learned from one of my teachers in the game industry that you don’t make 100k a year off the bat like westwood promised, but rather you’d have to be in the industry upwards of 15 years to even think about that kind of money.

He then suggested to me that ‘if i really wanted a quality art degree, go to Denver community. It’s cheaper’…

After gaining massive debt myself, and finding immense dissatisfaction with my classes, i decided westwood wasn’t for me. It was at the point that they tried their utmost to coax me to stay, even suggesting i try westwood online in ny. I did westwood online for a semester, and it was TERRIBLE….The interest rates were off, and did not match the amounts i was paying. I always felt that i was wronged somehow at westwood….it’s a relief to know that i wasn’t the only one wronged.
