When I enrolled at Southern Technical College, I was very hesitant and scared! Lucky enough for me Angela Elmer who is apart of the admissions team was there to soothe my fears and to help me out with everything I was concerned about!! She told me everything I needed to know and guided me the whole way through the medical assistant program! She is so helpful and so kind with the biggest heart! Thank you STC team!!

I have had a chance to work with Casandra and other faculty members at Southern Technical College and overall, it has been a great partnership. The staff is highly engaged with students as they deliver a well-rounded curriculum. -Andre Melendez

I was part of the nursing program and all though I was able to finish the program it wasnt without a fair share of struggles. The nursing program is cut throat as it is, when I started the program in 2022 the school was full of cheaters and the staff was unsupportive to say the least. We got a new DON and she tweaked the program to the success it is now. That being said this school is still VERY unorganized to the point the rough draft of my care plan (that is required to pass the clinical portion of the term) was misplaced by one of the professors. I asked the said professor over and over again if there were any edits I had to make before turning in the final copy and they kept on telling me it was perfect and no adjustments were needed and no final copy needed to be turned in. Imagine my surprise when I checked my grades the day after Christmas to find out I was failed for an incomplete care plan. I was desperately reaching out to the staff at STC to try and find a solution, everyone sent me to voicemail, left me on read, just to ultimately tell me there was nothing they could do and my fail was final (I didnt get a response until after the new year). I was not the only student that this happened to; however, I was the only student that was not permitted to come in and make the adjustments needed in order to pass. The teacher took no responsibility of their actions. I was failed and was forced to repeat the clinical and pay for it all over again as my only other option would have been to fail out. This was the same clinical I only got to go to once since it was right after hurricane Ian. They robbed me of my only fail as this program only allows one failed class per student. Although I am grateful I was able to complete the program and pass my NCLEX, this would not be an experience I would repeat at this school.
