Danielle Gonzalez Graduate Veterinary Assistant student at Canton, MI campus Graduation: May 8, 2019Being a single mother who works full-time and cares for her granddaughter, I didn't think going back to school was an option for me. Ross Medical has a great schedule for working parents, so I was able to fit school into my busy schedule. I am almost halfway through the program and I am so proud to be a Ross student.
Yolonda Rodriguez Graduate Medical Assistant student at Port Huron, MI campus Graduation: May 21, 2019I've been to two other colleges and didn't feel like I was excelling, so I left and came to Ross and it was the best thing I've ever done. I'm graduating in two days and will be starting my career in medical assisting.
Bria Jeffries Graduate Medical Assistant student at Madison Heights, MI campus Graduation: January 16, 2019Before I started Ross, I was looking to further my education, but was struggling financially. Ross makes sure that they help you be able to afford their program. Ross has a great cheerful staff here and their main priority is to make sure their students succeed. This program helps students become one step closer to their career goals. My personal experience here has been great and I wouldn't change it.
Abbie Franklin Graduate Medical Assistant student at Ontario, OH campus Graduation: March 27, 2019My name is Kimberly. I'm going to tell you how Ross has changed my life. I was working 40-60 hours a week at a factory, 7 days a week. I made the decision to try Ross and see where this life adventure takes me. I am now an RMA and work at Speciality Clinic. I worked very hard on working full time and going to school full time. Ross was a very important decision that I made for my life and a very special place for me. I would recommend that anyone try Ross. It will change your life forever, it did mine. Thank you - Kimberly
