Overall RatingThis school is nothing but a bad experience. I would consider this school is a joke. I was mislead by the admissions manager Christina Cao. She told me that this school is ranked the top 10 in USA. I found out that the school is not base on credibility research..

Overall RatingI am currently looking at all the acupuncture schools in the NY area. I called to get some information about the school. I spoke with a woman in admissions and I have to say never have I had such a rude and obnoxious conversation with someone before. The admissions manager gave me wrong information about the program and could not answer some of my questions. To top it off she was yelling at me like a mad woman. I had a few conversations with some of the current students and all of them told me that I should consider looking into other schools especially since I am not Chinese. I was told that since the majority of the staff and students are chinese the school shows favoritism towards them. Along with the fact that in clinic and in class students and teachers talk Chinese with no consideration to other students or patients around them. I was also told that the student/financial advisor is the step daughter of the administrative dean. How can you advise students on a program that you have not gone through?
