Everything I've ever heard pretty much agrees that Wyotech is garbage and you would be better off going with a local technical college that actually prepares you to enter the workforce.

For you, I suggest calling several local collision repair shops, telling them that you're looking at going to a tech school for collision repair, and ask what schools that they recommend.

I've heard mechanics refer to UTI graduates as Un Trained Idiots, but haven't heard as much bad as Wyotech.

Nashville Auto-Diesel College always sent reps to my high school because my Agriculture teach knew him. It seemed to be a good place if thats the thing you want to do. But those specialized schools arent cheap, for a year and half it cost more that some traditional four year Universities.
