University of Phoenix - Grade Inflation |

|
Timika of Farmington Hills MI (03/22/06) Ramon of Inglewood CA (02/12/06) About nine months later I started receiving letters requesting $1350 for the courses that I never took. I responded to those letters informing them that I decided to withdraw from the their program back in Fedruary. Now a $1350 charge appears on my credit report, which has negitatively impacted my ablity to purcharse a bigger home for my four children. Karen of Sutter CA (6/4/03):
Then in my fifth class, I knew for a fact that things were amiss. Speaking to some of my fellow classmates, they had seen the same type of things. When I received my grade report I couldn't believe it. I had gotten 100% on two assignments that I didn't turn in, my groups research paper - which was a day late - received a 98%, even though we didn't include a reference list (the class was an English Composition class), it was a day late, and the word count was about 100 words short. I quickly realized that I could continue my education with Phoenix and receive straight A's; however, I also know that I would never hire someone based on their education received at Phoenix. I have since moved on. I don't believe there will be any consequences for me, however as I stated, I would never hire a person based on their education from the University of Phoenix. Niccole of Tampa FL (4/21/03):
By allowing students to engage in plagiarism, UOP diminished the value of the degree and education. They also violated their own written policy and procedures. By allowing Instructors to engage in professional misconduct and unethical behavior, UOP released confidential information without consent which seriously impacted my ability to focus on classroom studies. I took one year of classes at UOP which I can not use. My money and time were both wasted. Heather of Kansas City KS (6/26/03):
