I have been misled and lied to from Grand Canyon University. I am an online student and I received a strange letter from the school talking about them being in legal trouble, so i started doing my research. I already suspected the school was bogus after starting and my classes online consist of watching YouTube videos and chatting with classmates about nothing. They said I could not drop out before I finished another class or I would owe back all of my financial aid They're lying about my funding and I truly feel as though they're stealing money from students. I was informed this was not that religious of a school because after finding out it was religious I said i didn't want to go and I was convinced that religion would not be a part of my education but then find out they're forcing me to take religious classes and partake in prayers in every class. I am Buddhist and I was lied to and deceived, bullied into staying enrolled and feeling like I have no options. I am in my 30's and work for minimum wage. Returning to college was a HUGE decision and I have completely wasted time, energy, resources, efforts, etc. This has had a horrible impact on my mental and emotional well-being and I have seen HUNDREDS of students online reporting similar issues and being unsure what to do about it. Can't we gather a significant amount of individuals whom have been lied to and violated by this school and get our money back as well as receive compensation for the other ways of which this experience has cost us so much? I am seeking a lawyer that is willing to fight this case and bring justice to the people whom have been wronged by this fake puppy mill of a school. They're degrees aren't even accepted as legitimate, people cannot get jobs upon graduating and are left with thousands and thousands of dollars in debt. This school is ruining lives. It NEEDS to stop. Can you help?
Desired outcome: Money spent on classes, the loss of wages, the mental trauma, negative impact on my life, the lost time with my child and family, and for the emotional distress. I was bullied into this school and misled. This needs to be fixed.
