So I have been out of work a while, my normal job has been electrician since the age of 18. I have been tossing around the idea of learning something new with all this free time, and since I enjoy working on my car, I thought that maybe it could be a new avenue for me in the future, given proper instruction and training.

I started looking into things, and became interested in the Auto program over at LTI in Mahwah. Today I toured the facility and took their little "assessment test" (which is a joke I might add). The facility seemed nice, with alot going on.

Then we got into the financial side of it, which turns out is around 26 thousand for a 13-17 month program, 4 nights a week until 11 pm. That sort of changed my perspective on things.

On the way out I asked some random kid walking from the auto shop how he liked the program, he said it was "Ok" but they were a major pain with the payments.

I searched a bit here for anything on LTI, and mostly everyone said they would NOT recommend them to ANYONE.


Basically, I want to know why, and please get into detail.

Also if you recommend a program that would be better. Perhaps at a local college or other tech school. It just seems Lincoln Tech isnt the place to go. Any help is appreciated.
