Hello! I live in Temecula, and was considering going to Maric at one point. However, as soon as I found out that you dont get credit for the courses, I quickly decided not to! If you wanted to go back to school in the future for a bachelors or masters degree, none of your classes would transfer so you wouldn't be able to if you went to maric!!!! And from what I keep hearing from people in this area, is that it is much easier to get a job if you have a bachelors versus an associates which is what Maric offers. Also, for the price that you pay there, you should be getting a lot more!!! Isn't it close to $30,000? And thats only for an associates degree (which you can get at a community college for a few thousand dollars) and for classes that cant even transfer or get credit for! Please take all of these factors into consideration! I know you just want to start right away, but there are some things to think about before jumping in. Where abouts to you live? Maybe I can help you find a community college, I have looked at several!!
