Guest guest Posted July 1, 2006 Report Share Posted July 1, 2006 Is anyone familiar with either of these schools in Florida? In Sarasota: http://www.ewcollege.org/aboutewc.htm Or In Fort Lauderdale: http://www.atom.edu/service.htm I'm currently going to a school in Minnesota, but I'm looking for a scenery change. My current school is great...great courses and instructors, but I'm getting tired of living in cold places. Anybody have thoughts about living in either of these places or the quality of these schools? Thanks -s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarasota school is quite nice, used to be a restaurant! Sarasota is beautiful as well. Bring a lot of money, though.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Dear " S " : I'm enrolled at The Florida College of Integrative Medicine, in Orlando Florida. The school is growing by leaps and bounds right now. A Phd program is developing (in additional to the Masters program in Oriental Medicine, and Bachelors in Health, currently awarded), a medicinal herbal research grant has just been awarded (and a series of greenhouses are being built), and various projects in conjunction with WHO are in progress. The school is currently small and cozey nonetheless, very personal. The actual facility is a stone throw from a lake, and along oak lined streets...it is an hour away from the beaches. The Admissions Director, Jon Diament, is very pleasant to work with, as well as Mary Simmons, and really, the entire staff...professional people, who also make you feel like family. The clinic is neat as a pin, clean, and well organized. The pharmacy is well stocked with fresh products, and meticulously governed. Also, what I find exciting, is that the school regularly hosts more extra-curricular seminars and functions relating to TCM and martial arts, than ANYBODY could get around to attending. Also, a nice, but modest library exists on the premises. DOWNFALLS. Unless you are rolling into town with a lot of cash, and a good job lined up, it is pretty costly to live in Orlando. Plus, unless you know Orlando WELL, there are places you just DON'T want to move into (such as Pine Hills, aka " Crime Hills " ). This is why I stay in Ormond Beach...I spend money commuting, but I have a safe, quiet, and relatively affordable place to return to. Expenses are relative...you might think that living close to the school saves in gas; but you are also paying more in car insurance by having an Orlando zip code, and more in rent...so, it eventually evens out. If you want to know more, send me an email, I'll help as much as I can.
