In - of 2012 I inquired about obtaining a degree in -. I was soon bombarded by phone calls from the - - and finally was scheduled for an in person meeting with a counselor in the - -, NJ location. I was - years old and unsure of what I wanted to do with my life. My counselor convinced me that the medical assistant program was for me because I would be certified in 9 months and - would help me secure a job after my graduation. Even when I hesitated and told my counselor I wanted to possibly start in -/-/-, he insistent that I start by -/-/-, meaning I had less than 3 weeks between my first introduction to the - -, to when I would start the medical assisting program. This was short time to make a decision. When I met with the financial services representatives at - they quickly told me they could secure a loan with the Genesis Lending Services to cover the cost of school remaining after federal loans. Again, I was - years old and did not have a parent or guardian present to help with my decision ; just the knowledge that I was now starting school in less than 3 weeks and needed the funds to pay for it. The interest of my loan or how long it would take me to finish payments was never explained to me. I feel the - - in - -, NJ pressured me into enrollment and further more encouraged me to make an irresponsible decision in obtaining a private loan from the Genesis Lending Service.
