?'s about Millis

They require a $500 deposit. A $100 deposit before class starts to reserve your spot. The remaining $400 is due upon the first day of class. This only happens if they accept your application to go to MTI. Im guessing this kind of lets them know you are serious about attending and should you change your mind right before class starts helps them recoup some of the costs of setting you up for class. They are not going to ask for this unless you ARE accepted to attend MTI.

 

I would say there's more to this than someone is disclosing. Millis has been a stand up coming in my eyes since I've been here. They're not perfect and there have been things that I didn't like, but they didn't try to pull anything fishy or lie. They've been straight up as far as I know.

If they take money and release you prior to going out on the road without a valid reason, I would think they would have many law suits going on over it. It wouldn't be financially beneficial to them.

 

From the way newbs26 posted it, it sounded like he sent the money before he got accepted because they are refunding his money. Just wondered what that was all about.

I am with you. I would think you fill out an app, get accepted, then give them the deposit. Maybe he will come back on here and clarify.

 

Yeah, I figure there is more to it than what was posted. If people are going to post stuff like that I wish they would put hard evidence with it to back up the claim.

 

It ain't so. He may have just jumped gun with payment.

 

I was told I was accepted and that I needed to pay the deposit. Then they asked me to fax over my DOT physical long form and when I called to say I had faxed it, Alice said "hold one second, ok I will put it in for final review to the director" I was like WTH? I honestly it's my weight but they will never say that. I'm 6'1" 440lbs but have no problems doing anything. I don't know though because all she would say was, "we have better apps at this time"

 

Good luck man. Wish ya the best.

 

I start School at Millis Cartersville at the end of this month, are you sure you get to drive truck home? If so I have to prune my driveway.

 

Depends on where you live. Most times I park at terminal and 4 wheel it home. I just don't live in a freight lane.
