Curious how they treat you like a 5 year old? It has been a awhile since I was there but don't remember them being that bad at all.

Clarify? Thanks!

Also, what field are you job hunting in?

 

Yes, because every anonymous rant on the internet is so full of factual information...

I still stand by my belief that if an individual wants the career, the school can be a benefit. I never said it was the magic bean, but too many children--yep I said children--think that because they log on to a site like Diesel Bombers and can put a cam in their 12 valve or weld on some broken down wore out corn head that they all of a sudden have what it takes to be a heavy duty diesel mechanic, so they enroll in a school and expect to be the next big thing.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out the WyoTech program is fast paced and you'd better have a very good working knowledge going in there............a person can blame the school for deceptive advertisement, but just like any advertisement, if the consumer won't stop to think for themselves what do they expect to happen?

 

they have way to many rules, yes i understand rules are needed but they take them way to far. i imagine they have added a bunch since you have been there.

i went for diesel and ASM so i have been looking for job as a diesel tech but there is nothing around here. every where i go they all want more expiriance.

 

Not going to bust your *****, but first things first. Learn to spell. Granted you're not looking for a job as an English tutor, but when you don't spell simple words like EXPERIENCE correctly, even with an automatic spell checking program this site uses, it makes me wonder what your resume, cover letter, etc looks like....also, it's 'too' not 'to'...it might sound like a nit pick but when a warranty administrator is trying to type your job story into a computer, or decipher your own typed job story, to submit to the OEM for warranty reimbursement, it makes it much easier on you if he/she can read it...you may find more warranty pay for each job as a result of using correct spelling and grammar. (job hunt tip #493)

Secondly, here are the rules as I remember them...

1. Hair above collar length, above eyebrows, no sideburns.
2. Collared shirt required at all times; tucked in at all times while on campus. ASM students required to wear white button up shirt and tie at all times while on campus; jean allowed in ASM.
3. No mustache hair below corners of mouth; no other facial hair permitted. Shave checks performed at random by instructors, usually with notice...
4. Roll call taken at beginning of day, after each break, after lunch, and right before going home.
5. No alcohol or drug paraphernalia on person, or on any school property--this includes the parking lot in your vehicle. Random room searches conducted by housing and or RA in all school owned apartments and dormitories.
6. Foul language prohibited on campus--instructors regulate this one to a point.
7. Leather type work boots/shoes required at all times while on campus.
8. Eye and hearing protection required at all times while in shops.

Any violation of the above can result in deduction of professionalism points, which can account for up to 20% of a student's grade. Amount of point deduction correlates to severity of violation.

Have they gotten more strict since I was there? Again, seriously, not trying to bust your ***** here, just asking questions. Cheers!

 

The military will not cover the whole cost for WyoTech. It is considered a private school and they will only cover up to $7000 per semester if i remember right. so it adds up to around $14000 that they will cover for 9 months which isnt even half of the cost. Go to a good college for 2 years and take advantage of the Post 911 bill. You will come out debt free and with a way better education. just my opinion
