This school does not acknowledge the rights of divorced gay parents. They cut communication off from me and banned me from their campuses because I was not the parent paying the tuition. Their leadership is very shady and their ownership, COGNITA, has a very bad track record. Remember this school is a business. They want to profit. Finally the published 8 years of student yearbooks online for anyone to see. I discovered this in April 2022 - told them to take them down ASAP and they did. Now they act like this data breach never happened.

I like how easy it is to submit an inquiry through the ISHCMC website. The admissions staff at ISHCMC have been very helpful during the inquiry process as well.

Will never forget the time I've spent here as an ISHCMC student, go Rhinos!
