    When I first enrolled and when I enrolled again for my masters, it was a bit confusing because I had two different advisors telling me that we needed to do this and that. But, it all worked itself out. My learning experience with them is going well. I usually recommend a lot of my students to enroll.

    During the enrolment process, the advisor stayed in constant contact. In one respect, it was overly persistent but that persistence helped me get past my procrastination. The learning experience was top-notch. On the other side of the coin, there were some inconsistencies from professor to professor with expectations around some details about some processes and techniques.

I had two car accidents and in one, I broke my left leg. In the other, I broke my right foot. So, I was having to take breaks because I was learning how to walk again.

    University of Arizona was online and accredited, which made me decide to go there, and I was a stay at home mom. I enrolled five years ago and it was relatively easy. It was not the first time I went through a college admissions process and compared to a brick-and-mortar location, it was a lot quicker. I liked the learning experience. It required you to put into practice the skills that you're learning. It's better equipped to prepare people for the workforce than the classes where it's rote learning where you’re given the information and told to remember it enough to be able to take a multiple choice test. Most of the professors were good. There were a couple that their feedback was lacking a lot. But it was just on grammar and nothing about the actual substance to the assignment.

    I wasn't aware though of how much out of state tuition and online schooling cost. It was a lot of money. I have friends who have similar or the same degrees as I do who paid half as much as I did for their degree. Other than that, University of Arizona was great. It gave me the opportunity to further my education when I had to drop out of my first college. So it was good to be able to go back and be able to balance that with all the new things that were in my life such as being a mom. It was good working around my work schedule as well once I started working. All around, it made it possible for me to get a degree that I probably couldn't have gotten going to a brick-and-mortar school.

    Depending on who I talk to, enrollment can be a little tedious with the people who don't necessarily know what they're doing. Sometimes, I get the runaround. Other than that, it's very simple. Though there were some teachers who didn't pay too much attention and didn't answer questions when I asked, my learning experience was really good. Try the University of Arizona Global Campus.

    I am a T-Mobile employee in a leadership position and I was searching through some of the benefits that we have for working with T-Mobile. A full tuition on leadership grant was one of the option. There was a list of schools and the one that attracted me the most based off its reputation in business was Ashford University. So, I filled out an interest form and then, I was able to meet with an enrollment counselor. I liked the structure and the way that Ashford University or University of Arizona Global Campus structures their courses where it's one course at a time. It's fast-paced but essentially flexible for somebody who's a full-time employee and had other responsibilities.

    The enrollment process itself was great. Everybody was easily accessible and what benefited me the most was that Ashford is a West Coast-based company. Most of the places that I needed to get ahold of were either in the West Coast or using Mountain Time. So with me being on the East Coast, it gave me even more of an advantage with flexibility and being able to reach somebody. Through my time at Ashford, I've had to partner with my academic advisors. I've partnered with financial aid and the grants team, and even with IT when I was having issues. And I didn't have any issues.

    From a student standpoint or a learning standpoint, the only opportunity for improvement is the way that certain professors structure the group work. When you're doing, in essence, online learning or distance learning, group work can be very difficult depending on time zones and what the day looks like for everybody in the group. About three of my classes required group work and that's where I struggled the most. I had to communicate with my professors more often than usual and that needs to improve. They should determine a way of scheduling a specific time or limiting the group work to you and one other person. Every class that I had group work in was a group of between three to five different students, and it was chaos at that point.

    I actively and openly recommend Ashford University to people that work with T-Mobile and even outside of T-Mobile. It's a great program. They gave me the foundation that I need to excel in my career. I've been looking for a job since graduating in September and I got it today. A few hours ago, I was in my final interview for this salary, administrative, generously compensating position. I was talking about what Ashford did for me academically and personally. They gave me the structure, the maturity and the confidence to go out there and sell myself for a manager position.

    I work full time and have a really sporadic schedule with my work. University of Arizona offered me the ability to be able to do the schoolwork when I had time to do it and not necessarily on a set schedule. The enrollment was really smooth, just a couple emails back and forth and filling out some paperwork. However, the learning experience was challenging. I had to manage my time properly to make sure that I got all the work done because it was a short schedule. But I learned a lot and I retained a lot as well. There were some professors that were harder as far as grading, but I appreciated that more because it held me more accountable for the mistakes that I made.

    I called FAFSA because for some reason, none of the schools I was adding would bring up the Pell Grant. I had to go to an online school. It had to be one based out of California and they suggested Ashford. The enrollment was pretty easy. I was very skeptical at first because I have gone to other online schools in the past. I was always told I had to pay an X amount. I would be in the middle of the first class and would then be told, “Oh, actually, it's this amount.” But with Ashford, everything was upfront. They gave a really nice military discount and that was awesome. It all ended up working out. I liked the accelerated classes. You take one at a time and that works for me very well.

    I had interactions with my Principles of Finance professor. He gave me a lot of great advice. There was only one professor that I had a somewhat negative experience with. His teaching style didn't work for me and he didn't really like to answer my question. He liked to beat around the bush to try and get me to answer my question. That Philosophy class was the only one I somewhat struggled with. Even when I did my best in my discussions, he would still mark me down for that. That was stressful. Other than that, my professors have been great and very helpful.

    I inquired a little bit more about Ashford online then I received a phone call as soon as I was done inquiring, and that phone call led to the enrollment. I liked that the length of the class was short. I was able to make my own schedule as far as scheduling classes. At first, I was doing one class at a time, but I was doing them back-to-back, and so, as soon as one was done, I would start another one. That became too much after a little while, so then I started taking a week break and they were very flexible with that, so it was pretty cool. There was one instructor that we didn't see eye to eye on a lot of things. It seemed as if the way he was grading was extremely meticulous. He didn't like the way that I answered things and I just felt that he was very opinionated, so I reached out to him with the emails. We never could come to an agreement. I still ended up passing the class. It wasn't the most pleasant experience, but that was okay.

    I was working with a lady who was taking classes in the University of Arizona as well, and I looked in it for myself. At that time, I was a single parent so I needed something where I could get my degree and be able to get a job with better pay. I had several surgeries while taking classes and they were always very accommodating and willing to give me some time off in order to recoup and not have to worry about stuff being turned in. So, it was nice because I was worried.

    I only had probably two professors that I didn't like and didn't work with me. So other than that, everybody was great. Everybody was flexible and was willing to answer my emails on time and give me the feedback that I needed. So that was great because doing it online can be a little different. The university wants a well-rounded education but a couple of the classes weren't technically necessary. Still, everything went good. I was supposed to fill out an application as far as paying back the federal grants and student loans and all that mess, and I completely forgot.

There were very few professors that did so in a timely manner but other than that, they provided feedback in ways to help me do better the next time if I was having problems. My professor ended up publishing one of the papers I did for my peers to view. That gives students a sense that they are doing it right and helps them see where they are.

    I love Ashford. It's a great school. All the professors are so professional. The actual scheduling is the key to the success of the school because it's a routine that doesn't change from undergrad to graduate. That format to me is easy to work around. So regardless of what type of job you have, you're able to push through it. It was really important for Ashford to make sure that you'd succeed. I've never been to a university or college that cares so much about the success of its students. They don't really care if you make it or not. But with Ashford, there was just a tad bit different, which was the reason why I went back to graduate school.

    The enrollment process was seamless and my experience was a little bit better than I thought. It went really well. Ashford has a very high standard of professors in terms of their education. I was kind of impressed with the professors' backgrounds. Some of them have Harvard degrees and Stanford degrees. There might have been an MIT professor too.

    My company paid for every penny of it because I maintained my GPA. I have two minor things and I didn't know them until somebody else I know graduated with her master's from another school. I did have a 4.0 GPA but Ashford doesn't have an honor society at the master's level nor do they recognize that on your bachelor's degree. To me, if you maintain a 3.5 or above at a master's level, you should be able to somehow see that on your degree and/or maybe be a part of a club or a group or a program that you could use for networking, for bouncing ideas off of each other or for mutual friendship.

    Six weeks is a short time to get a lot of information in but that's how a lot of the online schools work. When I first started, I did ask was there a way that we could be having more of an over the computer or online computer learning with the professor. You would have to meet one night a week at a specific time for an hour so you could at least be in a virtual classroom. That could make the program a little more professional and a little bit more attractive to someone else. Ashford was saying that was going to be something they were going to be working on.

    Ashford University has the five-week classes, which is quicker. With my VA benefits, I was able to double it up, so I did two years of college in a year and a half. The professors were great. If I had an issue with certain things, I could reach out to them and they'd always get back to me quickly and work things out so we could get a quicker resolution to the issue. I have a BA in Homeland Security and Emergency Management and I have since started a dual Master's in the same field. I've already sent two of my other soldiers over as well and they're currently enrolled taking classes.

    I've been with Ashford since 2009. I studied Entrepreneurship. Then I went back to school and graduated in May with my Master's in Organization Management with a specialization in Human Resources. Even over the years, I really know what days I was gonna have homework. So it was convenient for me. I was used to it and I didn't want to try anything new. I just wanted to stick to what I know. The enrollment experience was awesome. They were really nice. Even the woman that helped me this go-round was extremely nice. Any questions I had, she made sure that she gave me an answer. If she didn't know, she would find out and kept me informed about whatever I needed to do. Everything is fine the way it is and I'm pleased. Go for Ashford University. You won't regret it.

    The process from beginning to end at Ashford should be streamlined. When things don't work out as their website states, I should still be able to access the University and know what's going on. I should not have to feel like an outsider trying to figure out what's next. There should be just as many people willing to help me figure things out as there are people willing to call me to get me enrolled. Once something goes wrong, it doesn't matter if the ball dropped on Ashford's side. it's up to the student to figure things out and that should not be the case.

    I didn't have any issues there until I had a family emergency and had to stop taking classes. When I completed my courses, I received a phone call six weeks afterward that stated that there was another class I needed to take. When I questioned that process, I was told that it was my responsibility as a student to have read the fine print during the intake process, which was about two years prior to that date. And it was my responsibility to basically know what should have been done where the ball could have been dropped dead. That process was difficult because it took a year to get everything situated after I found out that I needed to take new classes. After that year, I was able to get back enrolled and completed my course.

    But now, I received an email saying "Let me help you get back enrolled". I asked Ashford's rep what the email was talking about and the rep said that I have one class I need to take and I have an outstanding balance. One of my student loans was returned to the university and I gotta figure out what's going on. I have the student loan receipt so I'll start with the loan provider, see what they show and then start with Ashford. For my doctorate, I was looking at Ashford because there is a discount. But, I'm interested in a smooth process and enjoying that process, not just being a number and paying out money. So, Ashford is no longer in the running for that. Also, while some of the teachers there are decent, others should not be teaching.

    I decided to enroll at Ashford because I wanted to do their health care administration program at first. They had a good price and it was all online. I got my master's through them as well. For my bachelor round, I had spoken with a guy named Bradley and he was absolutely rude. I was in the process of enrolling but I told him I had to put a pause 'cause I had a vacation in Mexico. Most of the time, there was not any Wi-Fi. I explained it to him in an email and he came back and said, "You must not really wanna take this seriously and take the next step in finishing your degree." It was so disrespectful to the point where I had to call Ashford and tell them what he said. I sent them all the emails. I told them I wanted a new enrollment person or I was not gonna enroll with them so they got me a new enrollment advisor and I was able to get in.

    Ashford's education is good but I feel like what they lacked was helping us get into the working field once we got our degrees. They put a big spiel when I went to enroll for my master's saying once I get it, I'll be able to get any of the jobs I want related to the field and they'll help me get that. Since I've graduated in June, all I've gotten are emails stating, "Come get the alumni grant and go for your degree again." I'm getting nothing regarding help for finding jobs. Regarding my loans, I found there are 14 open accounts and I feel that that was a little ridiculous. There shouldn't be that many accounts open and collecting interest. I loved my education experience but outside of it was not good. It was mismanaged. It would be better if they could work on being more open and more nice to their students, more responsive and provide more resources to help once we've graduated instead of just trying to get us to come back.

    I researched about 10 online schools when I was looking to finish my bachelor's degree. I went with Ashford because of a couple things - their customer service when I called and the fact that I wanted it specifically to be in real estate ‘cause that's my career. Everything was very well-outlined. Everybody was super friendly. The enrolment was very simple, even setting up my financial aid. The program was very structured which was good but yet there was flexibility since I worked fulltime. There were tutors available 24/7, online libraries, and tutor for writing and research. It is catered very well to anyone that is working or a parent and trying to pass their degree. It was a great experience. Sooner or later, I plan to go back and get my master’s. I’d definitely refer to any of my friends and colleagues that are pursuing to finish their bachelors or going back and get a master’s online. It’s a great school.

I've looked at the list and the universities that are there, which is quite a lot, and the programs each one had. Then, it went off to reviews and stuff that I could find at the time that it was said and I picked through them. Ashford had programs that I had interest in.

    My former employer was partnering with Ashford University for people that were close to completing degrees and wanted to have an opportunity. So once you are there a certain amount of time on the job, then you have an opportunity to take advantage of that. I did that and for the most part, it was good. I learned a lot. We had opportunities to use different types of tools to complete our assignments. Everything wasn't the same type of thing over and over. So we got to experience different things and it made it interesting.

    Sometimes the instructors do too many of those discussion polls. Then you have to have all that done on a certain day plus do a paper. You still have to write an assignment on top of doing that, and then you have to respond to two or three different people’s comments that have been posted. So that gets to be a lot, especially it's designed around most people that are still working and adult learning. There should be a way to make it so you can focus a lot more time to work towards on your paper as opposed to trying to get all these posts done and then you have to respond to all these people. Some of the instructors had it formatted that way and you had a little more time to work on your paper than others.

    When the instructors review your paper for you, it took longer than 24 hours to get the response back. Then they were not supposed to tell you what to do. But a lot of times, the responses were a lot vague and I had to get feedback on their feedback. A couple of times, I ended up having to try to do a lot of chats to understand what they were trying to tell me. So I was still guessing as to how to approach certain things that I had inquired about. So, whoever is doing that end of it can be a little bit more specific about what it is that they're pointing out to you to work on or give you more specific information about it. I have told a few people about Ashford University because it’s online. Some of the classes you wish can be in-person because of the type of class that it is.

The professors were very supportive, very connected and very thorough. It was a great atmosphere. I didn't like when all of the materials switched over to all digital. That was hard but I managed. I still could have gotten physical books but they would have been more expensive because I was doing the free books for military and then they switched it from being physical books to digital. I was like, “Oh, well, I still want them free. I don't want to have to pay extra.” But it's a personal preference because I would have preferred to have physical books than digital. Everybody's kind of on their own.

    The professors stay in communication with me through email. There were three of them that actually made phone calls, which was really nice. I really enjoyed that. Some of them were overly zealous and on the ball. Most of them would respond within 12 hours, which was good. Overall, it was great. They all had tons of experience. There was so much to learn. They would answer all of the questions thoroughly.

    My schedule is busy. So I was looking mostly for online schooling. I saw how Ashford University did the layout and it was convenient with my schedule. The enrollment was so nice. I had somebody named Gabriel and he walked me through the whole procedure step-by-step. The learning experience was really good. All of the professors were very easy to talk to and the material was easy to access. It was a long-lasting experience I would never forget. And I’m actually thinking about coming back and getting my Ph.D.

    I had a positive experience with Ashford. I liked their availability and response time. When I put my information in online, I got a call back and it was on a Sunday. Also, they were prompt and answered all the questions that I had. Do your research before you commit. Like any other school, it is costly. So, make sure you’re committed. And once you're committed, see it all the way through.

    Ashford had five-week online courses and that piqued my interest. Since I am in the military, I had to re-enroll a couple of times because I would usually have to take a break or sometimes extended breaks. The learning experience was pretty challenging for the most part. The professors were very professional. They would typically be very clear about their direction, if there were any issues, questions, or concerns that I would have, or if I would dispute anything that they would mark me off on paperwork. They would usually come back and let me know why they marked it off or they would give me credit back if I would clearly state why I said, or did, or wrote what I did. Overall, Ashford is very good at supporting working adults that are trying to continue their higher education.

    Ashford University had what seemed to be a really good anthropology program. They also had a lot of the things that I wanted to focus on, ‘cause I was looking to work in the field of archaeology. Getting enrolled was quick. They pointed me in the right direction, especially since being a veteran and a working college student, it was easy to be able to give them a call and if I had a problem, I'd talk to them. Getting everything in line to start was pretty good to go. Finance-wise, the financial department was always helpful. They also helped me in trying to get in the paperwork faxed.

    The time I had an issue was trying to get in touch with some of the instructors although it only happened one time. Then It could've been a little easier if there were access to materials. It was difficult trying to navigate the library and get the books ordered. I wasn't quite sure what to do in that area of trying to get things sent to me and having to go out and buy things. Other than that, everybody had quick responses on any questions that I had. I've told a couple of other students about my experiences there. I even made a couple of really good friends that I'm still in contact with while going there and working in groups.

But I'm a very hands-on learner so having everything at my fingertips like that has made it a lot easier for me. The majority of the professors were great. But I had a professor that didn't want to respond to anything or help me. I even appealed my grade and it did not go through. I have also been getting all kinds of charges after I've graduated.

    A very close friend of mine attended Ashford University and when he graduated, I went to the graduation that they held in San Diego at the VA house and watched them go across the stage. It was an awesome event. So, I had been contemplating attending school and then I talked to him about Ashford. I asked how Ashford was and he said that the people he spoke to were cool. So, he gave me the names of those individuals. I called them, conversations went well and so I enrolled. I got my degree in organizational management. I work for the Department of Housing and Urban Development so I was looking to further advance. So far, it hasn't happened but I still have applications, resumes and so forth out there circulating. So, something will come through.

    The professors were great. My fear was that, being an older student in the 50's, that I would not be able to compete with the modern student. But I found that I ran circles around a lot of the modern students and that became fun. I have nothing but the highest regard for my professors, maybe except for one. But the majority of them were amazed at my ability to write. Some of them highlighted and spotlighted my writing. One instructor said a paper that I had written was the best paper he had read in his entire teaching career. So, I thought he was blowing smoke and I said that he was just saying that. He didn't have to lie to kick it but he said that it was a great paper. It hits every point. I was citing properly in my research, I had very little grammatical errors and my content was very relatable. I spoke from a position of experience. Being 50-something years old, I've seen a few things.

    A couple of my friends were taking classes through Ashford and I ended up choosing them because of class scheduling. It fit online with my job, what I was doing like, with the time of being able to take care of my classes. I tried a few online classes in the past and I didn't know if I just wasn’t mentally ready, but for some reason, when I finally started with Ashford, it became easy for me. I don’t know if it was the right timing, but it worked for me.

    Throughout my time at Ashford, I didn't have any problems when it came down to classes or scheduling or signing up for classes, except for one time where I kinda got bumped out towards the end. But my adviser hooked that up and then got me back on track ASAP. Then the quality of the professors was pretty good. If I ever had any kind of questions, I can email my professors. The few times when I actually had to, they got back to me in a pretty good time frame and they also answered the questions that I had. My experience at Ashford was very educational.

I wish Ashford would have handled it better. I also went on vacation one time out the country and I had done all my work in advance but there was a stupid attendance requirement. It was like if everything is done, why do I have to log in on this day just to say I logged in? Stuff like that really makes it difficult for people in the world that are adults. But Ashford got the job done and my master's program went much smoother than my bachelor's program. The whole master's experience was a completely better experience.

I signed up with my employer to kinda get it all approved and I was enrolled pretty quickly thereafter as classes opened. The learning experience was very structured and predictable. Classes ranged from class to class, but for the most part, it was pretty consistent. You're able to schedule your personal life kind of around your school schedule. The interactiveness was probably minimal given that it's virtual. But they tried to do the best they could with conversation.

    The only thing that I would change if I was in charge of Ashford University was the 7-day rule thing. Because being in the military and not being able to take a class right away, they automatically disenroll you after seven days. So then you have to read and go through the whole re-enrollment process again. My military tuition assistance paid for it all. But most of the military-friendly colleges, they only charge you $150 per credit. So your tuition goes a little bit further than with Ashford.

    I had some difficulties with my degree plan and making sure that I was on track. There was a couple of different mix-ups in how many classes I was gonna have to take. That was kind of like a battle throughout the entire year. It was a little frustrating. I already had over 90 hours complete, so there was a mix-up of them wanting to meet certain requirements. I've never had a good grasp on my timeline and what I needed to complete to graduate. It flip-flopped several times while I was a student.

    There were parts during transferring that were easy, but then there were parts that required really intense follow-up. It made it kind of annoying and cumbersome to make sure that everything got done and I had all my ducks in a row. So there was a lot of focus on the administrative functions to make sure that they got done. I was always an 11-year college student so I've had other bad experiences with universities in regards to that stuff. I work in the financial industry and I know the flow and process.

    Lucky for me, I had a good foundation to make sure things get done just from my work experience. But as a student that didn't have that prior exposure, I can imagine they can let things go unnoticed for some time, and then turn around and kinda be screwed on having to take more classes or not having stuff the way it should be. They would be losing resources or time on unchecked errors. I had some frustrations with Ashford but I didn't have high expectations to begin with. So I kinda was able to navigate it.

    From an academic standpoint, the classroom was all fine. It was a good experience too. There were some classes where I felt that the coursework was little redundant and could be steered a little bit differently. But those are very niche complaints. All the professors were knowledgeable. I took scientific writing and it wasn't until the third or fourth week that I even knew what the class was really about. It kinda felt like it was aimless at some points. For it to be such a technical class and then having it online, there were certain aspects of the class that it was almost like watching a movie and starting in the middle and then there were three different plots to the movie. The flow was disorganized. It's almost like a class that you really just need to have introduced in person. I made straight A's and it was the only class that I got a B in. But the instructor knew the content and the coursework. They were knowledgeable.

    If you can get going and get started in the classroom, and if you can just focus on being a student, I recommend Ashford. I went to three different advisors. I kept getting the switch but they were all super sweet. They all treated me very well. I'm not an online person, so I'm very much in person lecture. I have very short attention span and low discipline. But the online structure caused me to research things and take ownership of my education, which made me a little bit more educational fruit in the process. So, as a student, they did a great job, but there are definitely opportunities for growth and guidance on the administrative side.

So being on active duty and having a continuously dynamic work schedule, it was super flexible for me to just call my academic advisor, say that I couldn't take this class and ask if they could push it for a week or whatever. And it was always super easy to shift schedules around. My wife also completed her degree in Ashford. My neighbor did his at Ashford too. They spoke very highly of the ease of schedule and that that was really the selling point. The professors were all pretty fairly good. They all answered timely and were very responsive. It took two years for me to finish my bachelor's. I had an associate. I could've done it sooner but I was just mainly using my TA and I was taking one class at a time for just time management as far as work and life balance.

    My wife graduated from Ashford and I saw her success there. So I went with what works and opted to choose Ashford. The staff told me exactly what I needed to do during the enrollment and I ended up doing it. It was pretty quick and painless for the most part. If I needed a question, I was able to ask and get a timely response. The enrollment was easy. Getting the VA funding stuff set up was pretty self-explanatory and easy. The only thing would be better citation management as far as when the VA will actually kick in. I started taking classes before my revenue stream for paying for it kicked in. So that concerned me a little bit. They should have more clarification on that. But then, once they explained the whole process, it was fine.

    I was in the military and I had heard about Ashford from other military teammates and friends. I called them and asked more questions about the degree programs and what was available for active duty members. I took Homeland Security and Emergency Management. My instructors were all pretty helpful. I was able to ask if I had any questions. That made it getting through the classes easier. Sometimes it can be difficult to understand some of the prompts so having them available to ask questions to definitely helped to understand what they were asking, write a good paper, and pass the class.

    It was a pretty positive experience especially in terms of how everything was online. Everything was pretty straightforward. I didn’t have too many difficulties getting through school. The classes were pretty fast-paced so I had to really stay committed. Everything was kind of cramped. If there is any way that Ashford can maybe have the classes either be a little longer or maybe chop down some of the unnecessary information, that would definitely make it easier for more students. I got through it just fine though. I’m not the brightest guy in the world so I think anyone can do it. But time management is crucial. I’m not very big on online education so the way Ashford is set up definitely made it easier to be successful. That’s the reason why I would recommend them.

    I had done the national college experience before and I just thought online would do me better. I looked online for different online schools then Ashford contacted me. They called me and then I started looking more into the school itself and decided to give it a go. It was definitely something to adjust to because I had to be responsible for my own schoolwork. I'm not going to a lecture so I really had to read everything for myself. There's no one telling me that I gotta do this now. But towards the end, I had a really terrible time. I just needed a couple of credits and my advisor recommended that I went through another party, to just enroll with this school for this one course for the last few credits I needed and I said okay.

    I did that but then I wasn't reading any posts with Ashford and I got kicked out from an attendance issue even though I was working on my course. I was following the advice of my advisor. That was kind of a nightmare. Other than that, I had a great time and I felt like I learned a lot doing online thing. I really enjoyed it and it was good. But that bit at the end was awful.

    I used the Prentice Publication for military schools and Ashford University had checkmarks for every category they had. There were three schools like that and I liked Ashford the most. I went with them for my degree in Organizational Management. I had issues one time with an instructor about unfair grading. No one knew what the grading scale of the professor I had issues with was and she was complaining about the way I submitted my papers.

    When she uploaded it to her software for grading or her software to see if I had plagiarized, that software would change the format of my document and put an extra two spaces in. She told me to send my file as a PDF when I was five classes away from graduating. I told her that I've never had to do that the entire time I was at Ashford. So she took points off my grade and said that my format was wrong. When I looked at my formatting when I downloaded my file from the website for my submissions, it looked perfect. I emailed her and told her about it and she said that the issue was her software and that I should send my work as a PDF.

    I emailed Ashford and talked to my counselor about the problem. He said that I shouldn't have to submit my files as a PDF as I'm in the military. He said that Ashford gets a lot of people who are just sending stuff through government computers. He also told me that he has been with Ashford for a while and that the school takes things very seriously when students have issues. He suggested that I do a grade appeal. I did that and Ashford got back to me telling me that my grade was fair.

    I did something else as well and the school reviewed what I said. They spoke to the instructor and everything was cleared up. Afterward, things changed and the professor's grading became better. She started offering more options and telling people that they needed certain things for help. Overall, I had a good experience at Ashford. The counselors there are good and the curriculum is cool. Plus, I like the school's interface. They use Blackboard and Campus which is a really intuitive, app-based thing. The fact that everything was easy and simple to find was my favorite. Their interface also provided free software for writing labs.

I had a good encounter with the veteran coordinator person and the enrolment was very smooth. I didn't have any issues. There was one professor that I didn't care for. He would normally release the assignments one week at a time. Having family and a job, it was nice to be able to get ahead and having the whole course available. But he would only release them at the day that the week started so it made it a lot harder for the people and for me. I'd spend the weekend just getting my homework done for the whole week. That way, I didn't have to stress about it during the weekend that it was due. But other than that, all the other professors responded to emails and had good interactions during discussion posts.

Ashford also had a lot of online support like writing and helping you be a better writer. You could do it through the library or their writing centers. You could talk to somebody too if you wanted to especially like theories in the library. But it was like somebody else to go over your paper and they send it back to you with their suggestion.

There was one class I had that was interesting. It was like a science class where I needed to do testing kits. I was told that if I was overseas then I couldn't get the testing kit. I was still able to take the class but I just had a packet that someone else did the research on. They did the test then had to reinterpret the information. I thought that was kinda quirky. Other than that, everything went really great.

    I felt pretty good but there was one class where I felt like the instructor was not really consistent. She would respond to posts like, "Great post," and stuff like that but would mark you down. She never gave any feedback why and never asked questions. I was kinda like, “Okay. Well, I'm not doing anything wrong. You're not asking questions. Why am I getting marked down?"

    I have three degrees with Ashford and I started way back in 2008. At the time, I was a full-time employee. I still am, as a full-time working dad, and I could not manage going to college every day on a campus. My job wouldn't allow that. I wanted to get into leadership, and Ashford had the program I was looking for. It was very affordable for me at the time and I was able to get through it. I rolled right into my MBA because I liked it so much, and the MBA got the endorsement of Mr. Forbes with the Forbes School of Business. I was pretty excited about that. Because I was familiar with their platform, I continued.

    I'd been in health care for the past five years and two years ago, I decided to get my MHA. Because Ashford has programs for alumni, they gave me a little bit of a scholarship. I'm very familiar with the organization and because I already had a master's degree, my credits transferred over a little more easily. They made it very easy for me to continue my education and it's worked out very well for me.

    When I got my two master's degrees, enrolling was very quick. I probably made it easier for them than most people where I knew exactly what I was wanting and needing. I just had to verify with them that the program covered what I needed it to cover. They verified that and it was a conversation on what I was eligible for as an alumni. Because I work at AdventHealth, there was an additional discount because of the partnership with AdventHealth.

    Any time I call in, if my advisor isn't available, I get another advisor and she's pretty much up to speed. They must have a good record-keeping system because anybody I talk to knows all my other conversations and I can talk to just about anybody there. I am looking at going back and getting some training in data science and data analytics but Ashford doesn't have a program for that right now. I wish they did. If there's one thing that they need to improve on is they need to start getting more into big data, data analytics, data science, and the technical side of things, because that's huge in today's world.

My husband and former pastor taught me English and now it's my specialty. I'm very good at English. I've written books, you can't write a book and not know English very well as you've got to write to write a book and English is majority writing so this is a lie I failed the class.

    They wanted someone else to pass that was failing so they made it out that I failed and I did not and besides that they kept telling me to switch my Folio to public and it was public and their IT person investigated it and it was set to Public.

    I was signed up years ago to start with University of Phoenix. Another soldier told me that they were more military friendly. But before I started, I switched over to Ashford for my Master's and I had a lot of issues with Ashford telling me wrong stuff about my GI Bill. I could never get ahold of my TA advisor ever. I left messages. I had to always talk to one that was available. They told me I would be getting the active duty GI Bill but that was not the case. I got a letter from the debt management from the VA stating that Ashford has filed my benefits wrong that was why I have a debt that I was overpaid. Ashford told me that I was entitled to that money. It's been such a mess with the VA and Ashford. I didn't tell other soldiers not to go there anymore, but I would no longer recommend Ashford.

    They need more education on how to file VA claims or GI Bill benefits. It was like night and day between my Bachelor's and my Master's. Bachelor's was awesome but for Master's, admin-wise, it was a completely different story. It was a bunch of misinformation. They don't know what they're doing with the GI Bills. I got a phone call with them from some lady threatening to report me to the credit bureau. It's been horrible experience.

    The colors of the organization, the purple and the gold, grabbed my attention. The learning experience was pretty impressive. It was pretty good because you dealt with one class at a time. That was very beneficial. Most of the professors were very professional and considerate. So that made the process even good too. If we had a little problem with being late, it was pretty cool. Some of the professors lack the necessary empathy that will make things better for students. But my overall judgment of the professors is that they are very compassionate about their jobs. I’m not gonna let a couple create a judgment of negativity.

    Whoever is in charge of the curriculum, they need to remind professors to be more considerate and lenient towards people doing online education. Sometimes, all you’re doing is your responsibility as an adult and sometimes circumstances would be beyond your control, and it kinda puts you in a bad position. So you might really need some consideration from a professor but they would be running about strict protocol to the curriculum. That kind of stuff was annoying. But once again, I didn't have much of that. A few of the professors didn't take advantage of the latitude that they got to work with students as opposed to informing policy and procedure. You can inform policy and procedure, but at the same time, as a professor, you do have some leeway to support.

During the enrollment process, I had people walk me through it. The flexibility of the schedule was great. I worked a full-time job on top of it. I did like the fact that it was one at a time and being able to focus on one thing at a time and retain a subject before moving on to a different one. However, the learning experience was hit-or-miss. There were a couple of things where it seemed so disconnected. It seemed too forced. Some of it lacked the creativity of being able to express yourself. There was a certain point where it wasn't as challenging.

    Some instructors were better than others but there were a couple of them that went above and beyond. They wanted to talk with their students. However, you don't really have any way of getting to know your professors. The only way you get to know them is through their grading. There were a couple of times where I was able to email back and forth to professors, but it was really disconnected in that aspect. If you have a question, you have to email them and you hear back three days later but the assignment was due the day before.

    I heard about Ashford University through coworkers. I liked the five-week courses. The courses are good and there are plenty of degree option choices. Enrolling was good the whole time. Majority of the professors were good. There were a few that we had disagreements with but that comes with college. Online learning is the easiest for me to do. Overall, Ashford is a good school.

    The company I work for, QTC, has a contract with Ashford University and they do a full-tuition grant. It is one of the opportunities I could take advantage of while working at QTC so I went for it. Enrolling with Ashford was easy. I had an advisor and she walked me through the process and everything went smoothly. I did my masters in health administration and the professors I got were good. For someone like me who is working full-time, it was nice to have online courses and not have to worry about going to class.

    However, there were so many essays. There was an essay every single week. I would have liked to have a variety of ways to do homework other than essays.

    On the other hand, I felt that there were opportunities to collaborate with our classmates. We had several group projects that I had to do. I was able to interact with other students and work with them. My course is over now and I'm happy.

    My company, Airgas, offered to pay for my schooling. I went with Ashford University and enrollment was very easy. We had someone who worked with the people at Airgas help Ashford in order to get them on board. I was new to online learning but it has been very easy since I got the hang of how the classrooms work. But, some way to get more collaboration or discussion among students instead of just doing a discussion and mandating replies. The majority of the professors have been excellent and they make sure that I'm on top of the assignments and that I'm doing what I'm supposed to be doing. I'd tell anybody with Airgas that they need to take advantage of this offer while it's still going on.

    I was given Ashford by my financial advisor. Since I was gonna do business, she advised that Ashford had come out of Forbes top business schools. I went with them and they held my hand the entire way. They were very communicative. Their staff called me every Friday like clockwork, on the dot, to make sure that I was doing good and that I was transitioning. I never felt alone. I felt I had somebody there helping me so it was the best experience I've had with college. Their teaching style was very different from previous colleges that I've attended. I like the way that it was broken down. The professors were very smart and professional. They knew about the course and the subject matter. I felt comfortable being taught by them. I've never really had a bad time or experience with Ashford. When I do speak to other individuals about college options, I share my experience with Ashford with them.

    A couple of years ago, a co-worker of mine said that she was going through Ashford and it was all online. She was getting her degree in nutrition. She asked me what I wanted and I said that I wanna get a bachelor's in a management or leadership degree. She said that Ashford totally has that down for me and because of that recommendation from somebody I trust, I decided on them. I'm a lot better at learning some things online but there are other things that if I try to learn them in person, it's easier. So, the learning experience depends on what I need at the moment.

    The majority of the professors were very easy to work with and communicative. They responded promptly and they weren't difficult. But there were a couple instances where I dealt with people that didn't communicate very well and it affected my grade a little because I was going through some stuff. I tried to let them know ahead of time that I was having an issue.

    There were also times when some of the assignments seemed a little vague and when I asked for clarification so that I could write down the homework properly, I wasn't able to get it done on time because I was waiting on the professor or the professor's aide to help me out with it. About 10% of the classes were like that such that I had a professor that maybe was just too busy or maybe there was a lot going on. But when I asked for clarification before an assignment, they didn't have anything for me to really go off of. Then they would get mad or they would grade me like crap when I don't understand the assignment and do the assignment like I misunderstood. Still, I liked the quick overall response between people and I was mostly treated with respect. The customer service was good. The education and the system being used were easy. It was a very flexible experience.

    The curriculum from Ashford University was tailored to what I was looking for. And their classes were a little bit more condensed. The enrollment experience was pretty fluid and it worked out. As long as you do what you're supposed to do, it's pretty easy to do. My experience was pretty good. The majority of the professors are very helpful. But there's always a one or two bunch that you get a course professor that's very stringent, but that's everywhere you go. I just finished my bachelor's. Now, I'm working on my master's.

    I did a lot of research on grad schools and Ashford was one of them. When I reached out to get some info, I came to find that my company provided a grant for it as well. So it was really convenient to know that I could go to school and it would get paid for by my company as well as through the scholarship through Verizon. I enrolled for my MBA and it was very smooth and very, very easy. I had a great experience with all of the professors except one. They were all very attentive and very understanding, but one of them was not very understanding. He was the reason why I didn't graduate with a 4.0. I was hospitalized and he didn't give me an extension to submit my final, which was two days late. I graduated with a 3.8. I got my master’s degree in marketing like I wanted. It was good. It was a commitment, but ultimately, it was worth it.

    Thank you Ashford for offering those wonderful scholarships because school is something very important, but unfortunately, it is a luxury that not a lot of people can afford to go to. So it's amazing that they not only partner with various companies who are interested in their employees reaching their educational goals, but they also helped meet the gap.

    I found an advertisement for Ashford University on Facebook. I started putting out feelers that I was interested. I was curious because of their holistic health department. Not even five minutes later, someone from Ashford called me. He was very nice and very, very easygoing. It was a very nice experience. With other colleges, everyone is more technical and always has some form of an attitude. But not with Ashford. Everyone was very, very friendly, very excited, and very happy to help me.

    I came in towards the tail end of my degree. I feel like I did miss out a little bit on some the other courses. I would love to have had some more classes on herbology. I took one and it was Western herbalism which I adored. It was amazing. But again that could just have been me coming in very late towards the end of my degree. If I started off with Ashford, I may have had the full experience and with no worries.

    I love Ashford. I've been there for about six years and I'm looking forward to continuing another four years. I would recommend it to everybody else. I like that I could work remotely and it worked with my schedule. I had some bad professors and good ones and some mediocre ones. Everybody was different. I had good classes and some were rewarding but some of them not so much.

    I was going to a different university but at the time, I felt that the support from the staff was lacking and then there were these eight-week courses and the monumental amount of work that was associated with it. So the course length was disproportionate to the amount of work. But with Ashford University, the learning experience was great. Math was not my favorite subject and the instructor was prompt and very engaging which added a personal touch to it. Also, I was able to go at my own pace. But the knowledge was useful in my day-to-day for what I was already doing. So it was an awesome experience.
