I also noticed that when information revealing that Everest University was formally known as &#8220;Florida Metropolitan University&#8221;, it was posted as an alert. Exactly what is the former name an alert about? Were there issues with the school while they were practicing under that name I need to know about? I have obtained a student loan which I will be paying back for ten years, at least. I really don&#8217;t want a large debt, and a degree on my wall to peer at, that either will be of no use to me. Can anyone give me some substantial and credible information to my concerns. My anxiety is maxed out, and I am doing my schoolwork with these concerns in the back of my mind. Very distracting and it is making me ill with worry and anxiety.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While I was looking through this website, thinking it would tell me which credentials would be needed for a career&#8230;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[35],"tags":[],"yst_prominent_words":[],"class_list":["post-262","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-7-online-associate-degree-programs"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.geteducated.com\/forums\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/262","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.geteducated.com\/forums\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.geteducated.com\/forums\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.geteducated.com\/forums\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.geteducated.com\/forums\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=262"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.geteducated.com\/forums\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/262\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.geteducated.com\/forums\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=262"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.geteducated.com\/forums\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=262"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.geteducated.com\/forums\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=262"},{"taxonomy":"yst_prominent_words","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.geteducated.com\/forums\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/yst_prominent_words?post=262"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
