    Burned bridge??

    I was signed up to attend the C1 school twice but due to reasons beyond my control, I was not able to attend. I am thinking of calling them back but unsure what to do? I have been told once u miss 2 scheduled dates u are gone for good. Is this true?

    I'd say try to get on at a college or something. You'll learn a he!l of a lot more there than you would at C1. You don't have a "guaranteed job" like you would if you go through C1, but you will have the certificate of completion from the course, which is just the same..nay, 10 times better..than the one you would get at C1. You will have to pay up front more than likely, but you can apply for grants and loans and such, and it is probably about the same amount you'll pay if you went to C1...

    But, to answer your question...I'm not sure about the missing 2 times thing...I only missed my first scheduled class lol

    Listen to what this man just said! You may still be able to get a job with PAM or USA, but it'll be better cause you'll be free.
