Pure honesty

I have attended UoP since 2004 and I am currently earning m Masters degree. I have been able to secure employment based on my degree and have not met an employer who didn't want to accept it.

Yes, Phoenix is expensive but what college isn't? Distance learning works for those who would otherwise have trouble attending a traditional school. At the end of my bachelor's course, the school dropped the ball in regards to my financial aid and I still had a balance on my books which meant I could not be issued my degree. In the end, Phoenix paid for the classes becaue the mistake was their fault and they issued my degree. As a student, I like the school.

Works well with my schedule

Quality of Curriculum/Instructors

I started attending UoP in November of 2011. I recently graduated from a university in the mid-west with my bachelors degree and wanted to go on for my teaching certification and eventual Ph.D. in Education. We have another university in the city I live in and just trying to get into their Master's program is a joke and a rip-off.

That is when I called and checked out UoP. I liked what I read about it and when I talked to an adviser, he answered all my questions and I didn't have to jump through all these stupid hoops. As I'm unable to work at this point in time, I'm busy full-time taking care of my wife who is disabled and unable to walk right now, attending classes online and only having to deal with only one class at a time for 6 weeks works great for me.

The advisers are also understanding and helpful with working with me as I recently found out that I'm losing my eyesight. So accommodations have been made for my classes. So would I recommend UoP? In a heart beat.

MSN

School recommended by Cynthia Terrell-Ramshack on November 01, 2010

I would recommend this university for online or classroom learning. The only negative experience I had was with one professor who was bias towards me. I never found out the truth. I was upset but it was a learning experience. Instructors should look out for the best interest of the student and be helpful, not harmful. The group assignments are challenging, especially when one connected believe they are always right and the best.

Recommend UOP

School recommended by Angel on September 19, 2010

Review Rated Helpful

I completed the international version of UOP Masters program and a Bachelor in Engineering at a traditional School. My work involved a lot of travel both domestic and international so it was impossible for me to attend a regular school. The coursework was challenging and most of the professors have experience working for big companies.

Most of my classmates were working professionals and some of them have one or more masters degrees. The school is expensive but is not easy, I spend between 10 to 15 hours each week reading,writing papers and answering questions.My overall experience was excellent and is paying back.If you are a working professional who can't attend traditional schools online school is the best option.
