The academic portion of the program is challenging but the books and lecture notes are very useful. The program is quick and it allows you too move at your own pace. The biggest issue is the student support services. They do not like to return calls or emails with regards to your transcripts. They take avery long time to evaluate and you will end up calling to fight for credits you have already earned at other schools. This is the part that really irritated me the most. There is no one to complain to when they mess up and you are told there is no one to complain to other than who you are speaking to on the phone. I have never heard of such a thing. You are not able to send a email to complain, ther is not a person who is held accountable for questions that wre not answered wrong, and there isnt an address to write to either. This in my mind makes this operation a mom and pops stand with no integrity. Again the academics and speed might make it worth your while but dont expect any help and look foward to answers that go unanswered. If this review was based on student support services and customer relations I would give it zero stars.

Dont complain Ashworth isn't a good school, Ive enrolled and Im almost done with my courses. You get accepted to colleges, don't complain if you don't know what is going on take online classes its easier!

Student support service is fair enough but some support representatives are ghetto they speak as if they never went to school "welcome to ashworffff college how may i assest you"

Don't expect anything along the way

I must admit, when I call with an issue these days - they answer the phone in a much quicker time frame than they used to. So that is a major improvement. Don't expect any help along the way, or any real support. But if you are capable of completing assignments on your own, and following basic rules - this program was great. Some of the lessons were a little outdated, and for Computer Technology degrees - that can be an issue.

!!!

Also, I graduated 6 weeks ago - and they have no idea where my diploma is. They also have no way of tracking my diploma and I can't follow up with anybody else. I asked the person on the phone why a company would pay a 3rd party to supply diplomas to their students and then have no way to track whether or not that 3rd party is actually following through with creating and shipping diplomas :) Seems a little strange to me.

Books are very cheap, no color designs, for any needed studies in plumbing, and the printing is half a$$ed, like for the symbols of piping not all the way there and totally incorrect, they said in the books that the books aren't perfect yes, but how are you supposed to learn and pass your test if they cant even put the right symbols, and then put different information that contradicts each description, 1 star for poorly written text books, well they ain't even textbooks they're on a spiral like a cheap notebook.
