Anyone hear of "Universal Technical Institute"?

[jkats]

My brother has made (what seems to me) a spur of the moment decision to attend the "Universal Technical Institute" in Arizona (an automotive school), even though he's never even changed his own oil. He's never even been to their campus - he simply found them on the internet. Does anyone know anything about this school, or better yet - has anyone attended this school?

UTI is a good mechanics school.

He "spur of the moment" paid the $30,000 tuition?

I went to UTI in Omaha for an HVAC course. It was worth every penny it cost me. I am currently an HVAC tech and have been for over 11 years now. 🙂

i believe it is U.T.I.
the University of Technichal Institute
It is acually a great school for auto mechanics/ac/heating
but if the recuiter got his hooks in him then he will probably pay too much.
had a scholarship there in '86
but backed out after i read the fine print...
if he goes there don't let him let them finance his shit!
otherwise it's a great school!

Tell him to get away from Auto repair and head toward HVAC. They prolly have a program there.
