“I am 54 years old and disable UoP suits my needs”

Could be cheaper. However, it is what it is! Second chance college for disable students who just like going to school. Meets my needs! Not too hard!

“Degree is not worth the piece of paper it is written on”

RANDY H.

2/11/23

It took me over 55K in student loan debt to realize this. Sadly, back in 2013 when I enrolled, the agents at UOP could fill out the student loan paperwork and this debt will never allow me to buy a house.

“I was highly looking at this school but after reading...”

I was highly looking at this school but after reading these reviews I am reconsidering. I do think many people have heard about them so perhaps they are well recognized by companies... thoughts?

Question:

Can you share a success story using university of phoenix? Can you share a success story using university of phoenix?

Answer:

I have been a student at the University of Phoenix for a few years now and I have finally had enough, I will be transferring as soon as my current class is over. There are several issues with their assignments, such as the course content not matching the assignments, the assignment instructions missing crucial information causing double work, and the forced team/group assignments. The team/group assignments were the final straw for me. I am constantly teamed up with individuals who are intelligence challenged (I'm trying to be nice), who are unable to comprehend the course material even though they are in a 300 level class, and who cannot compose a complete sentence. As a result, my grade is negatively impacted due to the shortcomings of my teammates. The university has also mismanaged my Pell Grant and will not release the funds that I have earned until I call and ask what the heck is going on. I strongly advise against enrolling at the University of Phoenix, unless you are one of those people that I was speaking of, if so then you should fit right in.

Not unless you call them and raise hell. It still takes them about a week after you do to release the funds. Good luck.
