Fleming College

Eight people in my firefighting program, accepted, than suddenly one week before program to begin. Told we made errors in payment structure and were bumped to waiting list. We accepted in May , paid tuition in June and subsequently leased housing for the year to find out suddenly we were not in program in Sept? NO one to answer questions or help us ?. Covid has been horrible enough , finally excited to start fresh and enter into field and study of my dreams only to have it ripped out at the last minute.Most of students also had student loans and NOW have government debt to be repaid with nothing to show for it . A mistake was made. But when same mistake was made by eight people , the information WASNT CLEAR!! There are several devoted students with not a word of guidance or assistance from Fleming to transition from high school into college post covid year. Fleming has lost both my business and respect. Kids have suffered enough this past few years.This was a horrendous experience. Whats worse is there was a chat room of all firefighting service students. The ones that were bumped are devastated and their peers replacing them the program are all in one group. Thank goodness I was accepted elsewhere. I will not be reapplying for next program. I hope others who read this stay clear of this dysfunctional and cruel treatment of young students and I pray that FLEMING grasps this is a difficult enough transition. I am new to college, I had not even started and I did make a mistake. Im human. There is such a thing as a phone. The error could have been rectified in as little as 30 seconds. Instead you devastate eight families and take away what little hope we had left for better days ahead. Its just MEAN !! I'm never one to write a bad review , but when speaking to main help line - I was told this happens every year ?? WHAT - How is this ok ? This is horrendous treatment and yet you continue to do it every year ........ rather than trying to aid your new students to success.This is ABUSIVE !! I certainly wish I knew before, hoping my review will help the next student, so they will not have to go through what we did. APPLY ELSEWHERE !!!

Fleming can be very hit or miss depending on your luck/ course / which teachers you get. For some; you learn a lot, its simple, and stress free. For many others going to Fleming is a regret they will always have. Faced with uncaring staff, courses that are not designed or taught to the level expected of a paid institution. I consider myself to be lucky; as I didn't need to personally experience most of the low points Fleming has to "offer". Unfortunate I have also seen the side of the school they don't want to acknowledge; both from my fellow course taking students (7+ years ago); and those going to school there now. The issues with Fleming seem to be systemic and need to be reviewed by an objective third party. - During COVID; some teachers are not bothering to be on time for their own class; and even cancel it 45 minutes after being late; they also refuse to get child care for their unruly children who will yell during the whole class. This may even result in the teacher just stopping the class and leaving, or canceling it entirely; If students are expected to get child care to attend college, why are teachers not held to the same standard? - Student support is almost non existent, if you have any disagreement with your assigned "professor" you have no real recourse. Even when your criticism is valid, and supported by your peers; the school will not take you seriously. Note that these complaints are not coming from a young child; but adults. Some staff treat all their students as children whose opinions can be ignored. They are usually the most ignorant "professors" who have the most need to grow. -They needs to do a deep, third-party, review of all their teachers / courses to get it to the level you would hope for an education you have to pay for.

What I experienced here was beautiful, I've learnt even more indigenous teachings and I was able to connect more with my ancestors and my indigenous roots. If you're going to this college and your gonna take the indigenous studies course THEN DO IT. I will be forever grateful to the people I meet here. Miigwech to Kylie the indigenous assistant manager. And to her husband. I hope our paths cross again. Miss you all already ♥️

I am not talking about studies here, but they do not have minimum curtesy on the students and their requests. There are lots of other colleges who cares about student situation. It is huge mistake for a middle class student to join in this college.

I applied for this college for admission for September intake but they didn’t offer me an admission only because of some silly reason they stated that the reason is other-Distance part education where as I have been a regular student in school and college both it really upsets me for being rejected for such a reason

DO NOT ATTEND THIS SCHOOL FOR ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING. TOO MANY INCOMPETENT TEACHERS. Below average teachers that mostly don't care or want you to succeed. EDIT: Here is a pros and cons list of what I have experienced at Fleming as an electrical engineering student. PROS: -Interesting topics -Challenging problems -Cafeteria food was decent -Learned a lot of concepts -Teachers were overall friendly -Made a lot of great friends - Centrally located CONS: -Poor teaching habits -Most teachers seemed passionless -Didn't always feel respected when asking questions (Some of the time) -Anonymity issues regarding teacher complaints -A few pretty poorly scheduled projects/assignments -Most of your grade is made up of quizzes and tests -Cancelled a 3rd year program for 2nd year students -Threatened strike in middle of final semester of 2nd year students. ALSO: There was a large amount of quiz and test questions that were not fully taught and most teachers marked extremely strictly (not partial marks for half right answers). Shout out to Xiang Li. He was always very kind and patient and I have nothing but respect for him.

BEWARE!! This college assigned fraudulent charges to my student account in January and has not removed them after six calls to their Student Accounts Department. The department employs students who keep reassuring me that a manager will remove the charges and then not doing so. They have also since sent me an email from student accounts saying that they are sending my account to a collections agency. This is the worse administration of any school I have ever dealt with.
