Business ProfileforRecording Radio Film Connection, Inc.

In October 2023, I joined a Recording, Radio, ****************************** audio engineering and music production program. Promised one-on-one mentorship with a real music producer or audio engineer, I instead served as unpaid labor for a mentor 45 miles away. Despite claims of local mentors, mine provided minimal guidance, leaving me to figure out the course's online component alone, and zero actual teaching on how to use the mixing board. Academic advisors prioritized pushing through exams over addressing concerns. Sessions meant for learning were often led by absent mentors or clueless substitutes, who would ask me what I was doing there. I once worked two back-to-back weekends 10-hour days, for engineers that were not my mentors, mine was who knows were, and they both just kind of put up with me because I think they felt bad. Despite voicing concerns, little changed. My mentor's sporadic availability and eventual admission of unsuitability further highlighted the program's disorganization. After four months and a $14,785 loan, I gained minimal studio experience and fell short of the crucial skills needed. This "school" lacked structure and relied on students to navigate its shortcomings. I sent two official withdrawal notices, with zero response, other than the advisor asking to talk to me, which I believe was an attempt to talk me into staying. They can keep the non-refundable fee's, which is $2,785, but please give me back the $12,000, which I still owe more on my loan. I need help, the payment is $307 month for like 5 years.
