Best

I am currently an RN student at medtech college and I absolutely love it there... The instructors are amazing and they all want to see you succeed... I would most def recommend me...

Worst

I went there because I was not accepted into Ivytech's nursing program, even as an honor roll student. I heard Medtech was a new, for-profit(so very expensive) school, but if I co...

Medtech College is low quality, high cost institution! 6/16/2009

Being at MedTech currently, I have only a few words to describe it: NEEDS IMPROVEMENT. The building the school is in has no proper ventilation, so all those with blood pressure problems or any hormonal issues, and all those that are also normal, will be as hot as hell during the month of May. Really during any time. Today, there was no water in the bathrooms. Last quarter we had 12 weeks of only one out of three elevators working!! The teachers can be late, take long breaks, receive surprise visitors during a regular class time, but students get dropped out and failed if they need to leave early for child care issues, for sickness or issues that are legitimate, and some teachers even get to be unethical, where they address an absent student's issues with the rest of the class. Adults are treated like kindergartners... I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone who's ever been in a civil or normal school! Quality of teaching, lacking, and leaving lots to be desired!

Medtech College is overrated..bad school for sure 6/12/2009

I went to Medtech and I couldn't transfer any of my credits.The internal policy is weird, because it applies to some, and it doesn't apply to others.That school should be under audition. It is a ghetto school.Go to any other school, , but DO NOT try Medtech. You will have the worst time of your life dealing with staff and students as well. more

personal opinion 5/28/2009

I'm currently a Med tech student. I'm almost finished with my course. This is not a bad school at all. The problem mostly lies with some of the students. It does have some ghetto students. But you have to rise above that. If your better then your typical loud mouth, bitchy, whinny, ghetto type of person, then you'll have no problem. I just over look it. Your in there for a reason and they aren't it. Med Tech has met all my expectations.. it's some of the students that will be your biggest problem. more

SHOCKED 5/8/2009

I just came across this site for the first time today and cannot believe some of the negative comments I have seen. I currently work as an LPN and make great money and I, without a doubt, owe my success to MedTech. I am a graduate of the LPN program and have recently been accepted to start their RN program. I could have chosen to go elsewhere, however, why would I want to when I had such a positive experience? I realize I can't speak for others, but as far as my experience went, I had knowledgeable instructors that pushed me to do my best. Also, having such a small class size, they always knew my name, even most of the staff knew my name (which is more than I can say for the previous school I attended that made you take a ton of pre-reqs and you still didn't know if you were going to get into the Nursing program) I believe this school genuinely cares about their students and I definitely recommend going here. I am proud to be a returning student to MedTech College. more

Very confused by the negative reviews.... 5/8/2009

I am currently a student at MTC and I am very confused by some of the reviews on this site. I have never had an instructor changed on me, I am learning A TON of skills (my program is VERY hands on), the administration is anything by "ghetto" (they are HIGHLY educated and professional) and the students in my class are very respectful. My guess is that these posts are from students that have not done well in classes or that are not able to return...they seem to come more out of anger. The placement rate is very high, I know of NUMEROUS Nursing Graduates that are working in all the major hospitals (the hospitals have even been here for career events and speaking). I would recommend MTC to anyone that is wanting to change their life and get into the nursing/medical field. more

MedTech College 5/8/2009

Just a quick note...a friend of mine goes to MedTech College and loves it. She had previously been at another school for 2 years and wasn't getting close to her degree. (too many pre-req's) She is now 2 quarters from graduation and having a great time. :) more

Not NLN accredited 5/6/2009

I am not a student of Medtech, but my daughter graduated from the LPN program. I work for Clarian, and she had a interview for a position with a large clinic at IU hospital. But when the recruiter noted that she had attended Medtech, she called and stated that they do not hire Medtech graduates due to the fact that they are not a National League of Nursing accredited school. I spoke with several people in Human Resources regarding this matter. It was very upsetting after spending the amount of money we did and she lost out on an awesome job because of it. Even though they are state and nationally accredited, they will not hire nurses with out the NLN accreditation. Medtech tried to say it was because they were such a new school and it takes years to get that accreditation, but from what I have researched online, the school has to apply for accreditation, and of course there is a fee that the school would have to pay. Maybe that is why they haven't applied for it so far. Just be aware o more

Medtech is good for helping people pass boards...Not good for skills! 5/5/2009

But hey...\r skills are really learnt at the job. Come on y'all!\r Another thing... no matter how much training you got at school, every hospital will give you an orientation, and time of shadowing so you learn to perform tasks according to the hospitals protocol, and guidelines.\r MedTech doesn't have all great teachers, and yes some read right out of the book. But so do teachers at other schools. Unfortunately, what makes lots of us mad is the fact that we pay so much, and wish we could be treated a little bit more like adults, and with a little more honor, after all, we the students, are bringing in the profits the school is making. It would be so nice to be heard when we approach the staff that claims the students are #1.\r On the other hand, having such a high passing percentage of graduates speaks volumes. MedTech has many, many nurses out there licensed. Ready completely to work? Not sure, but licensed, and that's impressive, because to get a job in the first place, you gotta be lic more

GREENWOOD LOCATION OR INDPLS? 5/4/2009

I was going to visit the Greenwood campus this week. I am interesting in pursuing the medical..possibly nursing...field. I currently have a BS in Business/Marketing Concentration and have taken no science classes. I am told that at Ivy Tech you must take pre-requisite. classes first such as Anatomy and Physiology before even being considered for the nursing program. Then it is possible that you may not even be accepted in the program? Is that the case at Med Tech? Need to get enrolled in classes soon as my full time job was eliminated and I am out of work. Thanks for your help?! more

bad experience 4/29/2009

I am attending MedTech currently, and I will say that it has been one of the worst experiences of my life. I heard very negative things going before I even attended the informational. I heard that the administration were rude, judgmental, and very difficult. I also heard how much it cost and thought "there is no way it could be that expensive." Well, let me tell you, both of the above claims are CORRECT. The administration is really weird and majorly ghetto. There are so many unprofessional, ridiculous characters running the Indianapolis campus, it isn't even funny. They are liars, deceivers, money- grubbers and would sell their mothers up the river to make an extra dollar. I don't care if you are considering MedTech for medical billing, LPN or learning how to mop a floor, don't do it. The place is disorganized and chaotic. Every quarter or so, we lose about five or six teachers and more crappy, self-righteous ones shipped in. So many people are unhappy with the administration and thei more

Once again, I defend Med Tech College 4/26/2009

I am a college graduate, magna cum Laud, from Indiana University. I am very educated and have been in an array of diverse educational situations. Med Tech College is a good school. The emphasis is giving mostly underprivileged people an opportunity to be trained in the medical field and to give them a chance to find a good job to improve themselves. I have been attending MTC for almost a year, and have not seen any hitting or fighting. Yes, sometimes things become a bit heated, but it is dealt with in a professional manner, and then we move forward. If you don't like ths school, go somewhere else. Stop criticizing an institution that can be a way out of poverty for so many. more

Think Carefully--what kind of experience do you have already. 4/26/2009

This is not a good school to go to for any skills necessary for the job you want in the Medical professions. You will probably get what you need to practice safely if you already have been a Certified Nursing Assistant, Home Health Aide, Care Partner or other assistant in a medical facility---or have already been given Fundamental instruction at another nursing program. If you have not already gotten this instruction, you will not get it in the Fundamentals Lab--because there isn't one. The instructor who teaches Fundamentals and other courses reads to you from the book. This takes up all of the time which could be used for a Laboratory to teach you the necessary skills. The one graduate who got a job at VA Hospital was probably one of the lucky ones who got to go there for some of their clinical experience. Speaking of clinical experience--in some areas we did not have any clinical experience in the nursing area we were supposed to be learning. The administration would not listen to a more

Your experience at Medtech is what you put into it! Loretta 4/23/2009

First, to the college professor (KT a.): Don't criticize the people who chose to attend this college. I excelled in high school, went to Ball State, changed careers- GRADUATED MEDTECH!!!! I am very proud to have earned my LPN there. It is not a school for people who didn't succeed in high school or other colleges. To the other critics, I never had one class where the teachers were changed throughout a course. The teachers that work there are all RN's including the wonderful clinical instructors. I have experienced teachers at a big university and I would have to say the ones at Medtech cared. I would recommend the school to anyone who is interested in becoming a nurse. I may get my RN there!! I have a great job at Community Hospital and also at a nursing home. Medtech is a new college who continues to improve every year just like other colleges. Ignore the negative comments and check the school out for yourself!! Happy in Anderson. Hi Kelly P., Ms. Brown, Mrs. "O", Karen Brower, Ms. Ta more

Against the Odds - Medical Billing and Coding 4/20/2009

My experience as a MedTech College Student (Indianapolis) has been insightful and challenging. From the moment I met with my admission's counselor in 2007 to presently interacting with the faculty and staff, I am confident that MedTech College is the correct choice for attaining my goals. The faculty and staff have been encouraging, supportive, and compassionate regarding my continued pursuit in self improvement. Despite the odds of being a single parent of a young child, the loss of a parent, and financial hardship, I made the commitment to strive for Perfect Attendance, Honor Roll, and Dean's List. Respect, professionalism, regulations, and manners have always been a part of my life. MedTech College coincides with my motto(s) that "one can can learn something new daily" and "your attitude towards achieving one's goal comes from within". Part-Time Student/ Graduation October 2009 more

RN Program 4/17/2009

I am a 4th quarter RN student at the Indianapolis campus and we will be the first RN graduating class from this campus. The program is an accelerated program and truly not for everyone. However, neither is nursing. I first encourage you to honestly question yourself as to why you want to enter the field of nursing. If it is for the money, then please do us all a favor and find something else. You are taking on a profession that requires an incredible amount of responsibility, diligence, maturity, mental strength and determination; AND IT BEGINS IN SCHOOL. It is probably one of the hardest 2 years you will go through, the program is intense and the dedication required to succeed is great. But that is in ANY nursing program. Med Tech gives you all the tools you need to succeed. How you choose to use those tools is up to you. I hope, for your patients sake, that you will utilize every tool and put your heart and soul into your studies because that is what it is going to take. Med Techs m more

I love Med Tech College! 4/17/2009

I am enrolled in the Medical Assistant program at Med Tech, and I love it. The education I have received has been phenomenal. The staff and instructors are terrific. They truly do care about the students. I am also on the Student Advisory Board and would highly recommend this school to anyone wanting to further their education. I believe that I will be fully prepared to work in the medical field upon graduation.To those who have posted negative comments about this school, perhaps you should look at yourself before criticizing someone else. more

LPN in training 4/17/2009

I am currently enrolled at Medtech for the LPN program, as well as a member of the student advisory board and have one more quarter to go and love the nursing program and the experience it has given me. After I graduate in October of this year I plan to return for the RN program. Medtech is a great school and I would recommend the nursing program to anyone seriously interested in the medical field. more

MedTech College 4/17/2009

I am a Medical Billing and Coding student here at MedTech and have been VERY impressed with my training. Not only is this school been known for the best Billing and Coding program in the city but has a great success rate with helping graduates get into the field. \r I have a bachelors degree from another IN university and let me tell you that the price for MedTech is not even close to what i paid for ONE year at my previous school. I mean lets face it, school is not free but this school is not bad in price!! more

Pharmacy Assisting..........NOT Pharmacy Tech!!! 4/15/2009

I completed the Pharmacy Assisting course at MedTech and if you have done any research, you would know that there is a difference between a Pharmacy Tech and a Pharmacy Assistant. Good luck finding a degree program for a Pharmacy Tech that lasts 4 weeks. Do your homework! And since I was only interested in a short term course, I don't know anything about accreditation, but I can tell you that the staff is excellent! It's the students that have the problem! Unfortunately, my class was during the week and we had to share the break room with the program students. Any high school behavior is generated between the students. Lets think about this for a minute, if you were a staff member & you had to deal with high school behavior from individuals who are supposed to be adults, how would you react!?!? All I know is that my experience was enjoyable and I would highly recommend MedTech Greenwood to anyone looking to better themselves. more
