Good school. Just stay on your side of the street. Body scum and auto/diesel don't mix.

Well to tell you the truth its just like high school no B.S. Theres stupid people, smart people and people that do not know a wrench from a screwdriver, But what you give is what you get. If you put the time and effort it's going to be worth it believe me. I went for a year and a half then after that I went to Jaguar specialized training (PACE) in Florida, Now I'm in Virginia working for the dealership that sells the most Jaguars in the U.S. and also has the top sells man in the country. OH and I'm about to turn 21 and looks like I'll be making $36k+ my first year.

great school if u really want to learn the job skills. it really is a school where u get what u put into it. i graduated in 2002 from the auto/diesel course, and made over 30k my first 9 1/2 months and in my second full year i hit 60k. another thing to consider is to do as many interviews as possible, and dont wait til ur about to graduate. also get into a dealership that does tuition reimbursment, hey its free money basically. so good luck hope this helps

Two of the guys that i went to training with went to the campus in NC and they said that they really get into the nascar racing from dynoing 750+hp engines to moving alignment angles a tenth of a degree and making the car behave completly different, its some good stuff but if you are leaning towards automotive a regular UTI campus will be good
