I am currently taking my final course in the University of the Rockies General Psychology Master's Program. Even though this school is expensive, I feel that the quality of my education has been excellent.

When I started my coursework 18 months ago, I made a goal to learn as much as could and I am very happy to say that I have exceeded that goal. I did not expect some of the coursework to be as difficult as it was, but the hard work, stress, and perseverance along with my professors and classmates, made my experience an excellent one.

Some classes were not as difficult and it was easier to relax and learn. Now that I am very near the end of my studies, I can say that I had an excellent experience because I put my heart and soul into everything that I was studying.

I currently taking my 9th class at the University of the Roickies, I have received 3 deserved B's and 6 deserved A's. I have found the instructors to be very competent, knowledgeable and accessible. The school is expensive but I feel I am getting a quality education and I am being challenged to succeed. I would recommend rhis school to others. The staff is very professional as well.

Before I attended the University of Rockies I reviewed many institutions and decided to go there. My experiences so far are the instructors are qualified PHD instructors. They care about their students and demand a lot of work. I am learning things that will enhance my career. There need to be more positive comments rather than the negative from students who are successfully attending the school.

I am currently enrolled at U of R. I have experienced a mix of professors. Most have been helpful and understanding toward me. I have a 4.0 GPA. I was doing great until I got to statistics. You are expected to teach yourself how to use the software they choose (SPSS) within a week. I withdrew from statistics since I work full time and am a single parent. I've had a hard enough time keeping up with course work thus far without having to learn a new software program on my own. I simply do not have enough time to complete all of the assignments in this one class. Other than statistics, my previous classes have been mostly beneficial, but sometimes the material is dull and uninspiring. If you can manage a heavy school related work load then this program would be great for you. If I wasn't able to work on school work at my job, I would not be able to keep up with the mandatory course load. Most of my classmates where helpful and offered advice and support whenever they could. You tend to stick together as a group as you progress through your classes. That aspect is nice since you get to know one another and bond.

Very expensive

I am currently enrolled in my fifth class at the University of the Rockies. I have a 3.6 GPA. So far the educational experience has been average. Some professors offer lots of feedback while others give you a grade with a standard reply: "Nice work, per U of R rubric you meet the standards, etc.." Talking to colleagues there are much more affordable online programs. I do not regret my choice, just the amount of money I am spending for this degree.
