My Not-So-Good Experience with UOP (University of Phoenix)

I am not trying to disrespect those who earned a degree through University of Phoenix, this is just my own opinion.

I was one of the people that was fooled by University of Phoenix. They told me that it was a great way for me to earn a degree considering I'm a Marine Wife who will be moving a lot. I bought it! I wanted to go to school and start working to earn my degree in Accounting. So without researching the UOP, I went ahead and signed up. It was kind of weird that the Academic Counselor was hurrying everything up. She tried to sign me up as soon as she can. it only took a few hours actually because she was in that much of a hurry.

Anyway, two classes later, I felt like I wasn't learning anything. But I thought maybe it will get better later down the road. I was definitely wrong.

I am now towards the end of the term with really nothing to show for it. All of the assignments I turned in were done the last minute, even my final projects, who received A's! I have straight A's and I still feel like I haven't learned anything. It is the same exact feeling I got after my first two classes. I feel like I just wasted my money on this useless education.

The "facilitators" didn't help whatsoever. Well the ones that I had. There many times where I had to answer questions but never received any type of feedback on it. Not even the correct answers! That was the moment I actually started doubting the type of education I am receiving from this place.

Some people may say that it is for those who are willing to learn on your own. I have to disagree. Am I really paying all these money so I can just sit there and read everything on my own without getting any feedback from these so-called "facilitators"? That's what they're there for correct? To facilitate and help the students in their class.
