While it was a bit of a rough start to the program, due to there being no teacher and no teacher's assistant available for my chosen course when I started, I feel as Ross pulled through well and made it work. They had all hands on deck to make sure students received the education they were paying for while they searched for a teacher and teacher's assistant. Even the program chair of the veterinary assistant program, Kristen Terlesky, came out twice a week to the Portage campus to make sure we were receiving the education and help needed throughout the course. The key parts about being successful in this program is a decent-good attitude in and out of the classroom, having a good support system with your classmates, and not being afraid to ask questions even if you think they're "stupid". However, there are things I wish they would improve upon in the program. I would recommend spacing some of the subject matter out more: while only a 9-month program, there would be times in each mod where there was little to nothing to do for students or there would be too much to do in too little time. This was often times either frustrating or stressful for my classmates. There also needs to be more on-hands learning in the classroom. I understand there are regulations and stipulations as to what veterinarian assistants are allowed to be taught in the program, but the more on-hands learning we can do the better. Answers to certain tests, quizzes, and assignments also need to be double checked for accuracy as well. If there could also be more assignments that, once completed, graded, and put into the system, students were allowed to take home as study-material for schooling or even for the future, that would be highly recommended as well. Otherwise, I've had a blast. Thank you for the opportunity Ross Medical!
Ross is an amazing school to go to, you get wonderful instructors to help you out with everything you need, and are always there and willing to answer any questions you may have. All of the people in the school are wonderful, you get to do so many hands on procedures, and you get to learn about something you love to do, in such a short amount of time! :
This school is AMAZING! I loved every minute of class and everything we did. I loved learning everything we learned and experiencing everything. I loved learning about all different kinds of animals and meeting all of these amazing people. They helped me go into my dream and do what I wanted to do. I would and will recommend this school to anyone!! Thank you Ross Medical Education Center for everything!
Okay so I just completed my first Mod here at Ross. All in all, my experience has been a very positive one. Our instructor, Ms. Jennifer Rose, was very knowledgeable. I feel I have learned a lot...not just textbook information, but things that will be actively used in the field. The class is very hands on and interactive and I love having hands-on interaction with animals on a daily basis - huge plus! All of my classmates are amazing...just overall, a wonderful place. So far I am giving Ross four stars. The instructor receives 5/5 for sure, but the way Ross does certain things doesn't make sense/isn't practical. 1. Despite being adults, they want us to somehow provide permission slips for our field trips. Really? Who is supposed to sign them...us? lol 2. Its our last day, and we literally only have our test to do. We are expected to sit here the entire six hours with nothing to do...if we leave early it counts against our attendance. 3. Despite paying a large amount of money to take the course here at Ross, we are still required to pay out of pocket for field trips...shouldn't that be included in our tuition/fees, especially when we are not given the option to go or not. So anyway, those are a few complaints I have thus far...again, overall, the school is doing its job and I am enjoying my experience. On a side note, our instructor needs a raise. Seriously, she rocks. She makes the class fun and goes out of her way to help/explain/think of new ways to learn. She's super hands-on and knows her stuff.
Ross has opened many new opportunities for me as a soon to be Medical Assistant. I love Ross Medical Education Center! The staff and the teachers are absolutely amazing! I'm so glad that I decided to come "to one of these schools" instead of a 2 year program somewhere else. Ross might be a little bit more expensive then a 2 year program but you for sure get what you paid for. The teachers and career services really get you prepared for the real world as an MA.
I love Ross because it is a family. The intimate setting makes learning not only easier but fun and interactive! The faculty is loving and genuinely care about your success and future. This was the best decision I could have made!
Really great place to come and learn. The staff and teachers are friendly and supporting. This school is a great alternative to regular or community college. Only 9 months until you can start a career in a field you love. I'm very happy I came here because in one more month I can finally start a career that will actually make me proud and happy to work at!
Coming to Ross I thought I would be having fun, learning a lot, making great memories and starting in a chapter in my life....well that's not it. I'm sitting in class everyday VA program not learning anything, the teacher really isn't good at teacher and doesn't try and help with anything. If there is a question she will say " I don't know, look it up!" So with being a new student and in only my 2nd Mod its really frustrating. There's not a lot of "hands on" which probably come with time..let's hope. We are able to bring pets in and do like nail trims but once the pet of the day is moving to much the teacher stops us, when you think about it you can can't do that in practice so it's not helpful. So would I recommend this to others? No, not really. It's way over priced for nothing being taught. I got hit with a monthly bill that I didn't know about. And I come home frustrated every night, in class it's stressful.
Ross Medical is by far the worst "school" I have ever attended or experienced and I would recommend never wasting the money on this place. The staff claims to care about their students but completely disregard their thoughts and feelings about the classroom, specifically and especially in the Veterinary Assisting program. Ms.Rose taught me the most I have ever learned here but the new teacher they have hired is not experienced in teaching students or anyone and has been out of practice for at least 10 years, not only that but the textbooks used by Ross are out of date and do not have up to date procedures and practices of Veterinary clinics in 2018. I would not recommend this school to anyone who is looking for a career in Veterinary Medicine. They are just in it for the money and could care less about you as a student or your education and experience at their school.
I Regret going here! i'm in the VA program and its a mess. For how much money the students are paying we should at least have a real teacher who knows the program. It's very unorganized, inconsistent, and not hands on like promised. since I've been there multiple people have dropped. Ive meet a lot of people who share the same passion for animals but thats about the only good thing I've gotten out of this. I would not recommend this program the way it is now, it needs some serious redoing and fixing!
