Graduate - CJ Program

I found the University’s online learning to be extremely helpful in that their facilitators were qualified and displayed awesome knowledge in the areas which they were teaching in. The program prepared me for my continued studies in my graduate work, which I am preparing to complete shortly. At times, the learning teams could be a bit demanding, in the sense that there was occasions where loaf students would require continuous prompting; however, I found that the time spent managing them actually improved my ability to manage my own scheduling and ultimately had a positive impact on the work I was completing. Overall, I would rate the quality of the degree that I received as being high. I am well versed in my undergraduate studies of the field of criminal justice.

One of our requirements was to participate in lots of discussions regarding the material covered with other classmates. If we didn't participate in a number of discussions, contributing accurate and thoroughly researched information, we'd lose points for that area. Professor interactions were minimal, except when getting exam information and receiving exam results. Results were normally sent back in Microsoft Word format, corrected, with red marker indications and the correct information.
My overall experience was that I missed the traditional classroom, because it really didn't feel like I was in school. Plus, I was paying more. But on the other hand, it was nice because I could go to school at any time of the day or night and even work ahead on classroom material. It was a great experience, though. And once you obtain your degree, you have your entire life and career ahead of you. It puts you on the right track. Good luck!

I absolutely loved this school. I work full time and the way the classes are structured made it very easy to fit this into my life. Definately worth looking into further if you are considering online classes!
