Superior program

School recommended by Mike on October 05, 2010

Review Rated Helpful

After attending two other online schools, I was finally satisfied with Regis. The academic standards upheld by the university transfer to the online program. That trait doesn't always transfer to non-traditional programs. I liked having the option of doing my classes on-ground if necessary. Regis is a good institution and one in which I am proud to call myself alum.

Regis MBA

I really enjoyed the time spent earning my MBA. While it was challenging, and sometimes frustrating, it was well worth it once I was finished. These are some really tough economic times now, so it's important to bolster your knowledge base and resume as best you can in order to remain competitive in the job market. My Regis MBA has helped me to do that. Regis is well known for its quality education and emphasis of service to others. When you combine those two things with a solid business education, it makes a winning combination.

In short, the program was demanding at times, especially the first two foundation courses. Those two courses were a whirlwind of different knowledge bases needed to be competent in the realm of business. Coincidentally, they were also two of the more rigorous courses during the program. Every other class was meaningful and relevant, but required extensive study. One of the things I liked most about the Regis MBA program was its learning model. The curriculum was designed in a way to teach best and current business practices, teaching ethical behavior as a result of the school's jesuit background all the way. The majority of the faculty were working professionals with extensive experience and academic knowledge.

I feel this is an extremely effective teaching method and it helped me greatly during my time there. To culminate your B-School experience, you take a capstone course at the end of the program to summarize the things you've learned. Without divulging too much information, you work with other students managing a virtual company. This is both challenging and rewarding. If you're looking to break into Wall Street as a financial consultant, you may want to look elsewhere. However, if you're looking to gain practical and relevant business knowledge and help boost your resume for increased responsibility and career growth, then Regis is a great option.

Decent school, but be careful

Regis is a good school, but one has to be careful with the degree one picks as the major. There are few degrees that are fully online, and most of those are computer degrees. The other degrees require classroom classes, and the classes are during the week and at night. For a stay-at-home mom of a toddler like myself whose husband works until midnight, it's impossible to attend those classes since it's impossible to find child care for those hours. So unfortunately I personally have to transfer to another school to get the degree I want. But, if you either want one of the online computer degrees or can attend the classroom classes, it's a great school.

Bachelor of Arts in Communication

Regis University has perfected the art of online education. I began my online experience with a large competitor and I felt like a number. Regis's smaller classes and more personal attention to me, made me feel like I was a actually part of the campus life. Not to mention, their price was much more affordable!

Through email and instant messenger functions, I was able to keep in close contact with my classmates and my professors. Questions were answered promptly and with the detail one would expect from college level courses.

The classes I took, complete with online examples and interactive sessions, made full use of IT technology. My degree brought me an instant pay raise at work and I now have the potential to move as far as I want.
