If I could give this place a - number I would, but it will not allow me to. I enrolled at Pima in 2008. I was sexually harassed by one of their instructors, named Gus. I brought it to the staff's attention. Ms. Stacey who was incahrge of all of us said to be flattered. Finally when more girls came forward they finally got rid of him. They never helped me find a job in the field that I graduated from. This place is a joke.

This is by far the worst school you could choose. they are all used car salesman pushing their crappy product.. they lie about their graduation rates, they lie about the help they will give you... they lie about being able to transfer to another campus... this school will take your money and run. The worst part is none of the staff cares at all. Every class I had got out an hour or two early every single day!!! And why not, the teachers get to go home when they are done teaching so they fly through their PowerPoints, th... read more

I can relate to your girfriend. I withdrew from the ota program. It was so overwhelming. The pressure to make 77% or high on all assigment is overwhelming. I knew it was going to challenging,but there was so many writing assigments due every week on top of all the classes you need to study for. I was sick everyday and stressed out. I feel like I let myself down and everyone around me as well. I have wanted to be ota for a long time. Unfortunately this is the only place that offers ota so I didn't have much choice. In the en... read more

Before calling to get more information on some classes and when they might start, I checked the website to see if Pima in Las Vegas did in fact offer these courses (EMT & Phlebotomy). When I spoke to a customer service representative, she informed me that those two classes WERE NOT offered at that campus BUT in California they are. Well, I appreciate your help, but I'm not in California :-/ Pima, please do us a favor and update your website. The false information can be a tad frustrating and gives false hope.

Wow so much I need to tell you guys about PIMA...my review is about the new "unaccredited" OTA program. My GF is attending and she has so many horror stories and comes home in tears almost once a week. First of all the director is a crazy narcissitic woman. The program has you type all of your homework, in every class, on computer in APA format. You will be required to type one or more reports weekly. They bog you down with useless homework assignments that just take up all of your time, which makes it impossible for you to ... read more

Pima Medical is now making a push for new students with new TV advertisements. Do yourself a favor and save your money. I attended the medical assistant had had to find my own externship. I never found a job so Pima convinced me that it would be an excellent idea get my Associates Degree with them that that would almost assure me a job. Well I did and no I never received employment after my degree. I filled out countless employment applications, but I never had any success and I was at the top of my class in each program. I... read more

If I could give this school 0 stars I would. I attended Pima and graduated in 2015. I've yet to receive my certificate because I owe them 10.00 but they can't tell me what it's for. This was the worst 9 months I've ever had..in the beginning when you first start they make you feel welcome and act like they want to help you succeed in life but all you are to this school is a check. They tell you your whole uniform will be included in your tuition but it's not. You have to buy everything except your scrubs. Supposibly they do ... read more

I've been trying forever to get an appointment to visit the school. I finally got one for yesterday at 3 pm. I had been out and about since 10 am doing other things and it was forever till 3. I call to see if there's anything earlier. This was about 20 minutes to one. They said they had something at 1 pm and asked if I could come. When I was 30 minutes away! I turn it down and have to wander around till 3 and then I was going to be late. So I call to reschedule and they have NOTHING. Every. Freaking. Day. They are busy fro... read more

I would caution anybody that are thinking about going to school here. I one of those that wasted my money and time going to this school. The instructors here have some kind of narcissist mentality. Students are failing after the programs total cost have been collected.
