Verified ReviewerCollege Network is a complete scam.
I paid 10k for the LPN to RN Bridge back in June 2013, I've been working on my classes as I go along, now I cannot even log in. I hear they have closed their doors and what is so sad, so many people have lost soooo much money that no one can even afford to apply any place else to earn their degrees.
Is there seriously nothing we can do to get our money back?? Furthermore, I see people on here stating that Reps from TCN are garnishing their wages even for services not even rendered. I believe it's time for all of us to ban together and go after them for our money.
Who's interested?? Message me at 812-865-****.
- No pros
- All cons
Preferred solution: I would like for them to at least work a deal out with another school, find a way to make good on their promises, at least give us a portion of our money back so we can get our degrees. I've paid $10k in full, makes me sick to my stomach.
Predatory and deceitful
The counselor visited, lied and said the GI Bill covered the tuition - it did not.. I tried to cancel, but was out of the window, and could not afford the tuition..
So they sold my debt to a law firm who garnished my wages twice what the program cost.. Predatory and deceitful, stay far away from this terrible company.

Verified Buyer |Still can’t access my courses! Or talk to a real person/representative!
Still cant access my courses! Or talk to a real person/representative!
I have previously sent photos of my original purchase receipts and I have previously complained about college Netwerk not having a phone number to be reached at not being able to access my modules for a course study.
I resent an email to them today and they said it would take up to two days to answer me.
They had previously said they gave me a new password but all it does is access me to the resource center and allows me to email them. Why cant I talk to a real representative?
I feel like this was a big shenanigan that I was taken on!
User's recommendation: Don’t fall for their shenanigans!
Falsely being charged for $15,000
In 2006 I had contacted him excelsior college to take the paramedic to RN program. Next thing I know, theres someone at my door from College Network and they told me theyre affiliated with Excelsior and handle the financial aid and student loans.
I never received my materials for the classes and never even took a class!! It seemed shady to me. Well a week ago, now 2022, I get a letter from my bank telling me that a law firm is garnishing my wages. When I investigated it, I find out its COLLEGE NETWORK saying I owe them $15,000!!!
What in the actual bleep is going on?!?! I cant find a contact number, no emails are answered and now I have an attorneys office/creditor trying to take my money!!!!
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!!!
Damn straight Im a pissed consumer!!!
Preferred solution: Full refund

I was reading that they had a lawsuit against them back in 2016. Who received the money?
You would think it would get split between customers who lost money.
I have not seen a cent. Since they're no longer in business, can legal action still be taken toward them?
