Maryland University of Integrative Health Rankings by Salary Score™

This school is such a ripoff. The online courses are a joke- they just post PowerPoints and pre-recorded videos, nothing you couldn't get off EdX or another free platform. The teachers are never available for extra help or office hours. They changed the professor for one of my classes the day it started and he came on and said (literally) "I never teach this class, this is not my material so we will just 'wing it'"it's. When I tried to ask for my money back after dropping the course I was told it was too late.... Read More I paid $2,500 for a professor to just "wing it". After not attending for 2 semesters I was sent a bill for "University fees" which include (I quote): Access to the software suite included in Microsoft Office 365 A Career Services Center, Health and Wellness Benefits offering you a wide range of integrative health services at the Natural Care Center’s University Teaching Clinic at the reduced price of $15 per service, Access to various research and support tools, and Use of your student email address after you leave the university. Mind you, as a remote student you actually have access to none of these, except O365 (which *I already have*, and costs $100 for a year) and, my email address- which, who uses a university email address after they leave. All for $300 a trimester. The online program is a scam with minimal instruction or career prep. Find something free (or at least cheaper!)

Where to begin. The financial aid office is predatory and conned me and countless other students to take out the maximum amount of loans, which has left those of us who aren't independently wealthy in financial ruin. We were all promised by our instructors that there would be licensure in place by the time we graduated and not only was that promise not honored, but we were ushered into taking a certification exam for nutrition, which is not something we actually went to school for, so that we could practice... Read More herbalism through the "back door" approach... Many of us weren't prepared to take the exam before the cut-off point and therefore our degrees are now useless. Also, much of the core faculty left in the middle of our program which tells you a lot. All the bridges they suggested as job possibilities were false. I’m not qualified to work in a lab. I have the most rudimentary knowledge of mass spectrometry. Organoleptics will get you laughed out of most jobs as a primary way of plant powder ID. This school school should really refund the students in the herbal medicine programs from 2009-2013 especially, since we were the ones who got screwed over the most. Awful experience that has ruined my life forever.
