    I give this school no stars! When you pay their tuition in full, your given a diploma, that you can't use! I received my diploma, with high honors in May of 16'. Took me till last week in October of 23' to discover that this school isn't accredited! I attempted to enroll in my community college MATC for LPN. I was told they wouldn't accept this diploma. I even reached out to other schools and the same thing. When you call Continental academy, you r being told by a rude receptionist that you have to talk to the principal whose never there! People please DNT spend your money on this punk fake a.. Diploma. You will be wasting your time! I'm highly disappointed! You will too!

    I leave 1 star I wish I could leave a thumbs down or no star because they don't even deserve that. Someone needs to put a stop to this school. Stealing hard working money from families and kids . Lying that this school is accredited when it isn't. You cant use this dang diploma anywhere! just to say you have it . This is ridiculous save your money and get your GED. They also have a great speech for you when you call to complain about this. This school should be closed it means nothing just to say you passed this school is a joke. Waste of money we should all get our money back. THIEVES!

    I too was one of the victims of this so called high school diploma scam. Because its a scam you cant use this high school diploma anywhere . I will continue to call your office everyday until you refund my hard working money $350 I spent and more on fees for you to mail me a high school diploma that I cant use to any school or work. You have completely lied to a lot of people , you lie and make up stories that youre accredited when youre not . I have my diploma , I have your fake certifications that you all provide I will contact an attorney about this. We should all receive a refund !

    I have recently found out that this school is not accredited. I am sad, depressed and beyond upset. I was a single mom back in **** when I received my Continental Academy High School diploma. All the while I studied I was in between work and taking care of my two young children at the time. I sacrificed that $350 tuition cost (God only knows) convinced that this was the best choice for me. Sadly, I was so proud of myself only to be let down like this. Now that I am ************************************************************** ************ Services with hopes to help our people, especially our senior citizens. I have been turned down by so many colleges and universities. It is devastating to me. I wouldn't be so upset if Continental Academy would offer their list of schools and universities that accept and share with all of the graduating/ed students. But apparently, there is no list. Because no one accepts this fake diploma. This is heartbreaking! I'd like to know how I can go about sueing Continental Academy for the $350 I paid. Myself, as well as anyone, should definitely be refunded. No matter how long it's been. I will pursue this and hopefully when I'm refunded I can use it towards educational supplies to a legit and accredited school. Please help or guide me. If this was nothing more than a scam to get money from people like us, God forgive everyone who took part in it. Again, someone please answer. I'd really like to get that refund back to get started on my journey to a better education and career. Thank you for reading. Amen.

    Just like many others before my complaint, I graduated January 2009 from Continental Academy I recently received an offer at a hospital and was suppose to start next week. The hospital rescinded offer due to back ground check on school NOT BEING ACCREDITED!! This school needs to be investigated and shut down immediately! Owner needs to go to federal prison!
