Hello, thank you for the help with this! 


Dear XXXX, Writing this letter to complain about your school, the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Already had several verbal correspondences with your team at the school, but the issue still is unresolved. Attend this school under the intention that they were in the process of the federally funded, to receive FASA loan to have an affordable monthly payment. The staff at your school and incorporate changed frequently, throughout attending the school I have worked on health communication working with 5 different people that no longer work at the school.

Still to this day lack of communication always given the runaround with long hold times, and left a message with no call back to resolve or elaborate on. I never missed a session of school with a mentor while working full time trying to afford the expensive monthly payment for the school. While attending this school my first mentors personal information was violated by another student attending the school and the teacher left the school. The
date that I had to change teachers was on XX/XX/2017, the school did not tell me the truth that this was the reason. So, the timing of all of this was in the middle of the curriculum. It took me a month to find a new teacher. I started with a new mentor on XX/XX/2017. Attended all sessions and completed the program and submitted my final project which was to record a song with a mentor which was the final assignment in chapter 19 of the course curriculum which was submitted to the school from me and mentor on XX/XX/2017. 

So as of today I still dont have my diploma of completion from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, The XXXX XXXX  software that I was investing in was deleted from my server on the school portal, not having access to the software put me in a bad space not able to produce money for work that was learned in school to pay tuition off. I just received an email stating that my account with the school will close, and put me in unnecessary debt, and set-up to fail.
