The graduation rate value includes only programs that were completed less than six years for four-year degrees or less than three years for two-year degrees.
Graduation rate is the percentage of institution’s new-entering, first-time, first-year undergraduate students who complete their program within 150% of the published time for the program. Graduation rate excludes a huge number of students. This indicator doesn’t take into account students of nontraditional enrollments - part-time students, students who enroll mid-year, and who transfer from one institution to another. So graduation rate alone can create a misleading perception. Completion rate in the form of total number of students receiving any types of awards/degrees creates a complete picture. Combining this data with graduation rate is a better way to compare educational institutions.

Student Reviews and Ratings for First Institute Inc
Overall Rating:
The manager Larcy Ward at First Institute Student massage clinic needs to learn how to treat the customers. Its terrible when they don't value a customer who has been supporting their business for 15 years. First Institute hires anyone who has no credentials to run the massage clinic as a manager. The management there doesn’t even care. One word TERRIBLE!
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™Anyone who ever gives this school a low rating just did not work hard. This school is just like a 2nd family. Nothing but joy from this school. All the staff and students are so amazing and I have learned so much coming to this school. Best decision I’ve made to become a medical assistant.
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™I wish I can give this review no stars. I was a previous student here. I dropped the program once i found a better school that charges $12,000 cheaper and can actually get me nationally certified so i can be a dental assistant anywhere in the country. First institute can not. they say that you get a certification but its useless. I moved back to texas after i completed the other program if i would have stayed at first institute then i wouldn't be able to work in the dental field in texas. I AM WARNING YOU DO NOT GO THERE its a waste of money and a year. There dental lab is horrible the chairs are all ripped up the equipment is old and rusty instruments. while i was only there for about a week. all I was thinking where is my $16,000 going not back in the program so I'm telling you now it took me a few years to finally write this. this place is not a good place if you are serious about having a career DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™I just recently graduated from the Medical Assistant Program. The staff here are absolutely amazing!! They work with you anytime you need extra help, if your having a bad day, or if you have a unique learning style as I do! The atmosphere is very comfortable, energetic, and happy. The instructors are always available and happy to help you if your stuck on something and will slow down the pace as needed. I had the best experience of my life, so far, attending this school. They totally prepare you for your career, they are accredited, and help you achieve your goals and dreams! I will definitely miss being around these amazing people!!!!
Source of the review: Google Places, Google Maps™Great school! I got a job a month after graduating. They helped me with my resume and emailed me job openings. I have 1 year+ at my job as medical assistant and I love it!
