not their fault

Sorry for your predicament but surely you don't think that all students with money problems should be funded by a ROSS schoarship? I don;t beleive that anyone looking at the ROSS website sees any info that ROSS is a US MEdical school locate in New York and recognized by the AMA.

I don't know, multiple times do you talk about Ross violating your civil rights and repeatedly holding you back and obstructing your progress, but you never gave any specifics. Also you didn't elaborate on the reasons behind your dismissal. Any why was Ross denying clinical rotations you had approved through the hospitals? It isn't in their best interests to do so, since if you're not rotating, you're not paying, although I'm not sure if you ever were after you initially talked them into letting you go to school for free, were you?

Whole thing sounds quite unclear, in my mind. Usually in stories like this, there is really alot more to the story that we never know.

ANY International (espcially for money ) school would dismiss you if you failed to pay your tuition.

Why did you not deal with loans and things like that with the financial office.


Why were you dismissed from Ross University?


Can a School Official Answer thins guy?

Because his story is frightening some new people who are considering Ross like my self.

if thios story is true, sorry to hear about yoru troubles. but,
1. Visa issues are NEVER the problem of a school or business, they are the primary concern of the person getting the visa. at best, a school can send a nice letter for you.

2. These problems occurred 3 owners ago. I started at Ross in the last semester the school was owned by oldman R***(cant say names on the site!) we never heard of anything like this happening.

3. Tuition must be paid to attend. that goes with every school in the world.

from your other post, its obvious this happened so long ago, that the school will tell you"tough luck". it happened so long ago that even if they had doen something criminal, it would be beyond the statute of limitations, and nothing would be done!

Statue of limitation is for court

I don't see how is the statue of limitation is relevant to a public forum?

Singer, it was not a money issue the whole time. The money issue was resolved, but the dean of clinical sciences continued to impede my academic progress.
Jim, about the visa isuue, I was completely misled. I will elaborate on this later. Thanks and God bless

Is it possible to sue the US. Department of education?

I wanna know my chances of suing the US Dept. of education?
The Dept. is the entity that was supposed to protect me from the atrociety of Ross, but unfortunatly it protected Ross.

I would consult an attorney about the validity of any claim against the DoE.

are you even a US citizen?

im failing to see where your case holds water. i dont think its the US DoE's job to protect the education of foreign non US citzens in foreign schools.

i think you should sue the sudanese govt. just because its easy to file a lawsuit in the US does not mean that you should just because you are angry. that case would just tie up our already clogged courts.

it also doesnt help that all this happened many years ago. even if the DoE wanted to close down ross, they cant. the most they could do was eliminate federal loans....... which wouldnt close the school down.
