University of Massachusetts Global (formerly known as Brandman University) & and the University of Wisconsin's competency-based FlexPath program probably both rate full reviews; notably, both of these universities offer two of the only competency-based associate's degrees that charge on an "all-you-can-study" basis (most CBE programs either eschew AS/AA degrees entirely [e.g., WGU, UMPI, etc.] or if they do offer these, charge on a credit-hour basis [e.g., SHNU, TESU, etc.]).

I graduated from Capella University with my Doctor of Education in 2021. I, personally, had a great experience. There was nothing easy about the program as you will have to work for your degree! I’m not sure about other’s experience, but for me it was worth it. Also, I do work as a Full Time Professor as well as own my own educational consulting business so for me, Capella was a good choice.

This review doesn’t reflect my personal experience at Capella. I earned a PhD there eight years ago, and I found it to be academically rigorous. My instructors were accessible when I needed them, especially my dissertation chair. It took quite a bit longer for me to finish than I had hoped, but that wasn’t Capella’s fault. Life happens, and online learning is hard. Perhaps a lot of students don’t really understand how self-directed and disciplined they will need to be in an online environment. Instead of sitting in a classroom and listening to an instructor feed you the information, online learning requires you to actually do the reading, participate in the labs and exercises, and then be able to demonstrate that you understand the material. There is a LOT of writing involved, so if you’re not a decent writer, you’re probably going to be more frustrated and not do as well. I used my GI Bill to pay for my PhD, so I can’t speak to the financial issues, but I was satisfied with my experience at Capella. Whether I would recommend it to others would depend on how motivated, organized, and self-directed they are. I’ll say it again: Online learning is hard. In my experience, it was harder than my previous two degrees at a nationally ranked state university.

I'm glad to hear you had a good experience. That's awesome. I will say that I expect it was hardly partially because you were working at the PhD level, but my whole video wasn't meant to imply that Capella could never be a good experience. It's just that statistically in 3 of 4 categories, it tends to be a worse experience for students. But it's really good to hear a positive review. Gotta see the whole picture. Thank you, Kelly!

I am currently a Capella student, and I don’t agree that this college is expensive. I get scholarships and it aids me tremendously and not to forgot Sophia courses! It’s 100% free. My student counselor is always reachable and if I don’t get her some one always gets back to me. I had amazing professors so far, I mean this is anywhere even if you are in IVy league colleges you aren’t always guaranteed a best teacher. I completely disagree with all the points this video have to say, and yes every one is entitled to share their opinions. In fact I was referred to Capella through my friend who earned her master’s and she was over the moon with her experience. Good luck Capella and all the learners! God bless you✨🙏🏻

I recently earned my bachelors from Capella. My overall rating for the school is a solid 4/5. My overall experience was great. However, the only con is that it was very difficult to hear back from Any of the faculty or support techs. It would take from a few days to weeks before you hear anything back, and sometimes they don’t respond at all. You definitely have to be HIGHLY MOTIVATED to do online courses mainly because it’s almost ALL writing. I calculated the amount of pages overall I did and it was about 600 pages of typing in all!

I'm in my first quarter for my Masters at Capella. Since I've applied they put me throught he wringer. I applied super early becuase I was just so excited to start school again. During the summer, they ended the program I was initially enrolled in and I either had to reapply for financial aid in the previous year or I could take the program that they were replacing it with. I decided to just stick it out and start the new program. Then during the summer my admissions worker claimed that I was not keeping in contact with her so they dropped me from the univeristy. I had to go through the whole admissions process again (which to be fair wasn't that difficult, it was just stressful due to the circumstances). Now, five weeks into my first quarter or halfway through, I was talking to my academic coach. He says that the program I am enrolled in won't fit my future goals. I appreciated his honesty and advice but I am feeling like Capella is trying to get me to take more classes and therefore make more money off of me. So now I am back to step one, looking for a new college to transfer to. Its just frustrating becuase I was so excited to start that I got everything done early and now I feel so far behind. Uggghh....

Hey, that's awesome! While I probably won't do a review of BCC, I will say that community college's fall into two camps: They love CLEP, etc. and are very easy to test out of or they don't even have CLEP on their radar because no one ever really asks them about. It should be pretty easy to figure out which they are within 5 minutes of calling Admissions. I hope that helps, and I'm excited for your daughter!

Not to do as thorough of a review, but I'm in my last year of a Cybersecurity Masters at PSU doing world campus. What I was told is that the coursework and structure is the same as on-campus. The fact that they encourage students to come to the campus and walk with everyone else and that they don't note a difference when you graduate was encouraging. Doing my program during COVID was a unique experiment as the on-campus students went remote too, and they ended up being mixed in with world campus students. That experience solidified the fact that it is the same as on-campus. The platform they use is Canvas, which is actually very nice compared to others I've seen. The cost is very competitive in the market. The instructors...well...that's really no different than anywhere else. For the most part, they are knowledgeable, well credentialed, and responsive, though you get a couple here and there that let the class go on autopilot. It happens. Depending on the class, the course material can be dated, but that is a common challenge among universities today, especially for fields that change quickly. So, in the end, I've really enjoyed the experience, met some great people, and gotten a decent enough value in terms of learning. Remember a lot of what you get out of it depends on what you put into it.

@@CollegeHacked thanks man I’m definitely gonna look into it. Since my music dreams kind of died out I’ve been lost on what I wanna do that would actually make me feel like I’m contributing to the world. And it’s the first profession that’s actually interested me and got me excited about doing. Cheers

What if i could get a graduate degree from here for free? still not worth it?

@CollegeHacked Жыл бұрын

I mean, it's probably still worth it, but would I pay $5,000 to get a degree from somewhere else? Personally, yes. If you're looking to go into higher education or being a professor, I'd pay a lot more to get a degree elsewhere. If it's just for professional work (not educational), then it's slightly less of an issue.

Can you review University of The People? Plenty of reviews available are from interested parties ie the students and staffs themselves.

This college is confusing and disorganized, with staff members often providing conflicting information. They mishandled your applications, causing significant frustration. Applying here is a waste of time and energy, as the process is incredibly stressful. They assign two counselors who contradict each other, which is bizarre. Moreover, their tuition is subject to change based on the market, which is unfair given that our incomes don't fluctuate similarly. Additionally, their costs are based on subscription length rather than courses or credits, meaning the longer you stay, the more you pay. It's all very misleading and feels fraudulent.
