The University Of Phoenix Online Not a real university, Internet
I am currently enrolled in my second class at the University of Phoenix Online and I am just coming to find out that this school is a complete waste of time. Even though I am a business and managment, the first class I took was a success class. The second class that I am now taking is Economics. I am not learning one thing in this class. The so called professor doesnt even teach diddly crap. All she does is posts questions, then the students have to answer those questions by midnight.
Needless to say, I had spoken to prospective business employers to see if they would hire anyone from this school and they said NO!! What a joke. On top of that, my first class which only lasted 5 measly weeks, cost me 1500!!!!!
I cant believe I have been dupped by these fakes!!! Im so pissed about this crap. 1500 for a stupid class that you dont even learn crap from?? Something must be done about these nasty insect predators. I plan on withdrawing from this FAKE school tomorrow and will enroll in a real university.
What can we do about this rip off school?

I graduated from UoP and have attended online college at other universities too. Every online class at each one of the schools were the same. There were discussion boards that were used and the professor issued assignements. I have found the discussion boards to be worthless. I'd rather just do the work asked and not worry about posting to a board because I have to create needless converstation. Anyway, you are to read the book to gain your knowledge. The professor is not there to hand you the answers so you feel you learned something. If you are having issues learning the materials that are being taught, then maybe online education is not for you. People have to be willing to do the work, and it requires integrity. Sitting in a class room is boring and the same information is given. There are lectures at UoP, you have to read them. I am confused on what you are not learning because if there is a book issued you can read it and learn things.

I get on this website and read all these complaints about UOP. I've been going there a little over a year and a half and have not had a single problem. I am about ready to start my bachelors program in Criminal Justice. I get financial aid too and have never had a problem with it. I know several people who have had nothing but success with UOP. My friend just got her master degree from UOP, and got a promotion at work because of it. It would be better if you place the names of the propective employer on here to see if what your claiming is sure. I have spoken with employers, including my own employer and they will hire from any accredited college, which UOP is. There are colleges out there that are a lot more expenisive then UOP.
I have been attending college since I was 18, and I started at UOP and I am actaully going to finish college! UOP is a life saver, because I was able to work full-time at go to school full-time. Sure, they are more expenisive then community college, but they are a lot more convenient. It sucks that some people have a bad experience, but those people are a small portion of the people who have a great experience.
