You are right if i was in their shoes i would do the same thing and most likely retaliate the same way
I was accepted into epic's program on Oct 7th 2008 . I knew very well what had happened .
I had discussed with Mike personally about the incident .
He told me that back in 2008 their sales team was still selling the garunteed program for $39000
He told me that because of the rising costs and fuel it was not possible for them to continue with their program at that cost .
Thats why for the current students
Either they charged more or they had to shut down epic and send the students back home .
Which do you think was better for the students ? Leave epic and go back without getting a commercial after spending all that money .
that
Or spend a little more and get done with your commercial .
They reason Mike was brought into Epic was to turn around from a loss making institute into a profitable one . Epic was bleeding close to
$200,000 every month .
I am not exactly trying to defend epic here....
Sure its not the students fault that they(epic) were losing money
But it all boiled down to a situation where they charge students more money and get everyone done with their commercial.....
Or....
Shut shop and send everyone back home .
If they had to shut down they most likely file for chapter 11 bankruptcy protection which would make the contract that you signed about the fixed price void and would not be able to take any legal action against them and none of the students would get their money back or finish with their commercial
It was bad management on epic's part to get to a point where they faced a situtation like that
. Infact it really cost them their reputation .
I dont think it is outright fair to call them scammers . If they were scammers they would have shut down epic a long time ago and none of the students would have finished the program
I am putting all this information out here because i think epic should have told the students what really happened back then .
I am not sure what the other face of epic is like . But i sure
would appreciate if you could tell me so that i can decide whether to
continue here or not .
Now for those who broke the rules and regulations
You broke the rules guys
You suffer the consequences
Its as simple as that.....
You want put the the truth on the net......
Sure go ahead......
Just make sure that you put the whole truth out there
Blue Skies everyone
