and yes i agree with you, you seem to be a lot more knowledgeable than 4410. i had to sign something from argosy stating that they cannot guarantee licensing in the state of california. that made things a bit skeptical for me. also their statistics confuse me. they only have 8 graduates from 2001 until now. that kind of worries me. i know it's a new school and all but it still seems pretty low.

on top of it. ever since i visited over the summer, they called me repeatedly, making sure i would apply. it makes sense to me now.

thank you for all of your input. it is really helpful. if i dont get into wright, i'm probably going to go for alliant. though i would still like some input on that
