Colorado Technical University Reviews

Hi there, I took classes back in 2010. I signed up for this at the wrong time in my life. I was having marital problems, seeking attention, money issues, lack of self esteem, was in duress and having mental issues. They were so eager to sign me up which I did online. I remember him, (I cannot remember his name) he did tell me I had 3 days to cancel if I changed my mind. He knew nothing about me personally. So I wished I would of cancelled. I do have diploma. My grade was not all that great to me, I was not happy with it. But they cram you with work, sometimes my work would not go through. I also felt it was not in a classroom, like hands on work. So that disappointed me even more. I feel like I have not learned anything from this school. I know it is my fault, but now I am in debt and living in poverty level. So right now I am trying to get out of this debt. Help!!

I have attended CTU since May 2019, and from the very start I have had superb experiences. My admissions advisor and success coach were great. Lauren, my success coach, has continually been helpful and timely in her responses whenever I reach out to her. She has helped me with every question, concern, and request I have made since I've started.

I came here to read reviews and because I have experienced good universities, I decided to drop out. You can't drop out on your own, you have to call or email an official. I emailed, never got a response back. And then my academic advisor, Bran ** called me and I told him I was dropping out. He was incredibly nasty and manipulative to me. Scathing, even. He told me he'd spent all this time on me and been nothing but professional and basically that I was a fool for letting reviews help me come to a conclusion about the school. I'll restate something: You can't drop out on your own. I've gone to two previous colleges, Centralia Community College and the University of Washington. Both allowed you to drop out of courses online so you wouldn't be charged. This college is different and it's for the worst.

The best thing about attending CTU is that they don't try to cram immoral trashy liberal idealisms down our throats and they've shown time and time again support for our troops. If you're interested in attending a college without the typical left-leaning ** - CTU may be a learning institution for you.

I enrolled last Thursday. Did orientation Monday and then they had a class Tuesday, which I did part of. I ended up reading up on CTU online a few days later and I am so glad I did. All week I have been telling Ortiz my admissions person that I no longer wanted to be enrolled in this college, wrote the school, even did online chatting. Tell me why she's been beating around the bush all week and still hasn't done it. They act like they will help you with anything until you have something like this happen. Then they don't want to help you, don't answer your emails, have people say they aren't in their office etc.... I am here to warn others "DON'T GO TO CTU ONLINE".

I attended CTU out of being withdraw from my last school nearly related to it, AIU (American Inter-Continental University) and while it had started off good, a very nice Admissions Counselor by the name of Patrice ** got me into the school's system and I had been doing great with my classes. I came across Math and flunked it with flying colors, but never failed it, it's mysterious to me, how I got withdrawn from AIU within six months of returning and then within a short four months later get withdrawn from CTU, right behind it. I know that it's spiritual, someone in my family is dating someone who jinxes people, she may have, had a hand in me doing so badly, but what I do know is that mainly CTU was picking up where I AIU left off, that is misleading me.

I have been a student at CTU using the online classes for over three years. When I first signed up, I had a great advisor who seemed to be very helpful. My success coach was okay but I could tell there would be communication issues. I immediately knew there would be a problem with Financial Aid because they were constantly sending me emails and losing my paperwork. I was speaking to someone different all the time. Fast forward a year or so and I ended up having to leave school due to a divorce. I was berated by student accounts about the past due balance and so on and so forth. 3-5 phone calls a day and emails. I finally called and requested that they only send emails because the phone calls were becoming harassment.

I have been attending CTU online since April 2, 2019. I started out taking Business classes, changed to Criminal Justice concentrating on Human Resources, and then just barely changed my major for the last time to Psychology concentrating on Behaviors. I change my mind alot. CTU was very helpful with my changes, and they were prompt with everything.

Multiple times the staff will ghost you and ignore your replies especially when it comes to financing. The online classes are a joke as well and the staff with the online classes are horrible. The teachers just read from a slideshow to "teach" you.

As someone working full-time, this was a great school for me. I was lucky enough that the campus was near my job anyway. But, like anywhere else, you get out of it what you put into it. I read every assignment. I did every homework assignment. I made it a point to study and understand the topic. I took what I learned and looked for ways to apply it to my job.

I did the fast track program for a BS in Criminal Justice. I completed it with a 4.0 and honors. However, it’s all theory based (writing essays); no real tests, no hands on learning. I literally learned nothing that would assist me in getting a job within that field of study. I never got a job related to it.

I looked to them to possibly enroll in the fall to start some classes when my life experiences currently are quite chaotic. The admissions adviser said that it's a year-round school and classes start in two weeks. I did send my unofficial transcripts after getting talked into enrolling. First of all, the website online stated they were one of the least costly colleges to enroll at $24,000. My estimate was over $50,000! I signed an application but it would not take my e signature. She told me to try all of my previous names! They ended up using my previous married name.

CTU will not release people transcripts premised on the fact and I quote, "You owe over $10,610. Yet, when I witness this call when I heard my cousin speaking to a man named RUSSELL, I almost laughed and did some research. My cousin had withdrawn from this SCAM-related school premise on family issue." As a lawyer is saying, have proof of all that is said everyone. I know she will get her 9 or 12 credits as her legal right and she can't owe the lawyer said because she did NOT attend but a few months, and did not receive ANY monies, at all, not 1 red cent.

This school is a joke and money hungry. I took 2 classes with them when I got to my third I decided to change my career path and go back to a different college where I got my last degree, so I decided to withdraw from CTU. Well I talked to a lady and she said if I withdrawn at a certain date, that I will not owe no money, so I did. The withdraw process is a joke, because it took them 3 days to process it, and then when I get completely withdrawn I get a massive bill from them saying I owe them 13,522.00. Out of every college I’ve been too and changed my Career path I have never gotten stuff like this, this school is money hungry that’s all there is to it. I reported them to the financial aid people, next is the BBB. This school is a joke and needs to be shut down. All this for wanting to change to a different school. They're a fraud.

A year in, I called financial aid to check on a stipend, as I was in a tough spot. In 7 different calls, I got 5 different answers. Later, a debt was somehow accumulated, and they called at 7 AM, 7:25 AM, 8 AM, and one lady called 3x at 6 AM, back to back. They don't update their records, they don't respect any agreement, and when I hit them with a cease and desist order, they threatened my enrollment. When I called to complain about the 3x 6 AM lady, I said a single swear word... because it was 6 am, and this had been going on for weeks, with no one taking notes or referencing my timezone. For this single swear word, I was threatened with expulsion. THEY WILL DENY ANY AND ALL WRONGDOING!

Very simple, discrimination by CTU because I was **. CTU assumed (at that time) before I was discriminated against in employment because of my age, that I could afford 600.00 a month to pay in addition to my student loan. Two months later I was laided off from my contractor position because of my age. The contractor wanted a cute party girl ** for their EA for that dept and they got one. I tried to talk to them. It did no good. I was ** of course. As of now I still have not completed my degree because the discrimination against me because I am ** continues. My GPA was 3.94-3.96. ALSO am veteran. CTU keep enrolling me and disenrolling me because of discrimination because I am **. The games & discrimination against me because I am ** need to end now. I will not quit telling people about CTU'S discrimination games against me until I am allowed to complete my degree and they quit discriminating against me because I am **.

When I decided to return to College CTU was my choice because I previously attended. Well I have not been stipend since February of 2018. And then would call and tell me I had to return the money to them because my financial aid did not cover all of my expenses. I found that very weird. So, now they will not stipend anything to me. I never had a problem the first time I attended. I cannot wait to graduate from this school. I feel like I have been scammed.

Since starting CTU in Aug, I got the "cheerleader" from Admissions who clearly is there to pump you up to join the school. After you are admitted, they reach out to you a few times, then suddenly, it's silent. No help. No callback, no response. The learning platform is horrible! I've taken online classes before from another school and so apparently they set the bar high. Nothing astounds me more than to be at a TECH school that has TONS of technical issues with their online platform. The Intellipath is a great learning tool, however, the questions are poorly worded, answers are wrong, the graphical portions never load forcing you to answer the questions incorrectly.

Was strong armed into enrolling for my online degree by predatory admissions advisor. Was told that after taking out the max in fin aid loans, I would receive nearly $3000 stipend. Supposed to receive 2 disbursement per school year; 8 months later, haven't received anything but the runaround. They put my money to sleep. I'll go to Chicago or Colorado and put them to sleep. They think because I'm an online student, I won't hunt these ** down and get what's mine. I don't need the jail time, so what I will do is take legal action, and get my local news channel to air my story. Hopefully, I will get results faster than CTU can steal my money. Fraudulent, predatory behavior at CTU. Get your money back and warn everyone you know to avoid this scam.

I went to school there years ago and passed with flying colors. I was left with student loan debt and wasn't able to obtain my degree. It not only affected me as a person but my career while serving active duty in the United States Army. I wasn't able to move up in rank as the promotion points were high in my MOS, so therefore it shown on my credit for the past eight years until recently, when the Department of Education had decided to offset my tax return. So therefore I feel like I'm entitled to my degree. In other places on earth people are treated with more class but to treat those who serve like this it's not deserved.

I decided to join CTU because my wife has also gone here and has for the most part had great experiences, so upon graduating from high school I enrolled in Colorado Technical University. I will say this they do love to call a person a lot and also at the most worst times of all. So far until February 2019 I got my refunds on time and sometimes early the February 2019 came along and I dont know what happened but I got some rude people who flat out told me that they had 2 weeks to give me my money and that they could and will take every day possible.

I was inquiring into several online accounting schools and got a call from Colorado Technical Institute the same day. The person on the line didn't tell me what the call was about or if it was a good time to talk. They did say the line was recorded and wanted to know where I graduated from, when I graduated, what degree I was pursuing, and even where I worked!

Back in 2010 our family was going through a crisis due to the economic meltdown, I lost my job as a bookkeeper because the school had to cut back their budget by 70,000 so they let me and a couple other people go. I had decided to look into a job that would not be so hard hit by inflation and economic stress and researched into going into medical billing and coding. I checked out a couple different online universities and was told by a CTU rep that their course would cover all aspects of medical billing and coding. When I graduated in 2012 I was hired by a Medical facility in Oregon for the medical records department (only because I had experience with electronic medical record processing).

I attended CTU Online many years ago. I am in the Washington DC area and had trouble of finding a job with my degree. The support from CTU Online is little to none after graduation. No JOB assistance at all. THANKS A LOT CTU ONLINE. NOW I AM TRYING TO GET LOAN FORGIVENESS ON ALL THE UNNECESSARY LOANS I TOOK OUT. I will never never ever be fooled again. WELL WISHES...think before you sign...

Absolute joke of a school. Transferred here from UMUC after the passing of my wife. I'm in their IT & computer systems security bachelors program. Some of the things that CTU has put me through - Registering me for classes that I had previously been given credit for which lead me to wasting my Post 9/11 benefits. Forcing me to take classes that I have already completed (which even use the exact same TestOut labs) for the sole purpose of monetary gain (private institution). Professors that show up late to class and take long "breaks". Professors that cannot manage their time and end up skipping long sections of course materials. Be warned - if you are looking at CTU for their cyber security program... go to UMUC, they are 50 steps ahead of CTU in every aspect.

This school is a complete joke. They run up your student loans. They return financial aid and tell you they made a mistake. Give you the run around all the while racking up loads of debt in your name. I finally had enough of teachers and depts not answering me for help in my classes. All I got was silence. I then withdrew and found another school and went to get my transcripts to transfer credit. Suddenly my transcripts are on hold. I owe 3k which was completely covered my financial aid which they returned to the government without my knowledge. Mind you this was after I ordered my transcripts from parchment and the new college talked to them. They are nothing but a joke retaliating but putting money you supposedly owe to block you receiving your transcripts.

I took out a student loan with CTU part way through my semester. It took me several weeks to get a hold of financial aid advisor to get it even completed. Set up to have the dispense remaining balance to myself at time of submitting for the loans. When they received the loans instead of sending funds out they refunded what I had already paid but held onto the money and applied the student loan to my account. It was explained with grants and loans they have to send them out in a timely manner, I assuming that’s why they did it the way they did so they could stall sending it out.

I was in Accounting II and I withdrew after first week and they still charged me full amount which was around 1,300 dollars! This is robbery. Nobody should have to pay for a class they didn't take. I don't care what the school policy is.

CTU signed me up for one of their master's programs around 2005. They registered me for financial aid. I filled out and submitted all documents on time. School withdrew me from school 1 week before my last class was completed. I had spent hundreds of hours on and had an A in the class. This caused me to lose my financial aid. They did not offer any solutions. Told me my financial aid was taking too long. They sent me a bill of a couple thousand dollars. Ruined my credit. Refused to give me a letter grade for my class since I could not finish the class. They wanted to extort money from me for something not delivered. I ended up filing for Bankruptcy on 2008 and included this in the Bankruptcy. Currently, trying to sign up for another Master's Degree. CTU still wants me to extort a couple thousand from me before I get my transcripts. They are ignoring Federal Bankruptcy laws. Stay away from this school.

Last year I reported a few things to the BBB about CTU and how I would not be able to use my Subsidized Student Loan anymore after CTU. Here the breakdown, before I was forced to enroll at CTU, I chatted with some person on their site about the different programs. Well lo and behold I was enrolled into classes and was asked to sign a "payment" statement in which I didn't see the whole thing because they didn't have a link and the person said "this will help with your interests on your loans", LIE! Needless to say they used more of my loans than they were supposed to and now I don't have access to my loans for the school I am with now, which is local. I mean I've asked to have the "interest free" fee removed but they didn't and still owe $2000.

I enjoyed the symposium, it exceeded my expectations. If it wasn't so expensive to attend I would recommend moving back to 4 symposiums. The faculty and the students were so uplifting and the food was great. I would appreciate a writers workshop, to cover APA and citing (even though you can get all this online via doc library). I enjoyed the office hours and all the workshops. I found the check-in, check-out and attendance sheet to be cumbersome, but despite that I truly enjoyed the amount of support CTU gives their students. This was a breathtaking refresher that I needed.

The Symposium was a great experience. My only suggestions is much better directions for getting to and from the hotel in regards to the train and catching a bus from union station. Faculty and staff were exceptional. Some of the rooms were extremely hot.

I had a great experience at my first symposium. It was a very energizing experience. I had a great opportunity to get a better perspective on what other students are working on, some of the "potholes", challenges they are overcoming, topics, etc. Great opportunity to network and learn more. I found workshops and one-on-one office hours with the professors to be the best part of the journey. Very nice food and lodging. A few suggestions: would be nice to have a quick 15 minute information about CTU and CEC. More sessions in the supply chain, strategy, and project management areas. Have more faculty share what were the top struggles in their programs and how they overcame it.

I now realize why Symposium is a requirement for students. I had underestimated the importance of the networking and the value of the tools offered. I have several takeaways that I will be implementing immediately. I wish I would have attended sooner!

I enjoyed the entire process from the start until now. The symposium was very knowledgeable and I gained a lot of information from it. I would recommend that all doctoral students participate in this symposium. The workshops was also very good. Until now I didn't have a research question; now I do. The professors are doing an excellent job in preparing us for what is next to come.

This was an awesome experience. The faculty was extremely knowledgeable. The classes were on time. The only drawback was technical difficulties. Not to mention that the food was great. I especially loved the office hours. I was able to sit face-to-face with my professors.

It has been interesting so far. Admissions rushed me into class before I had the chance to sort out my financial aid, and now, I have come up against obstacles. I am NOT impressed with the Admissions Dept. or Financial Aid Dept. The Academics is okay, at least for now!

I currently attended Colorado Technical University Online. I love the learning platform that CTU uses. The virtual campus is easy to navigate. The staff and faculty are always available and willing to help. If you are interested in a college I suggest CTU!

This was a great experience and I learned a lot of information during many of the sessions, but I could not access technology to all the tools should work. Specifically Endnote. The Library and Qualitative session were the best. Networking with the returning students has inspired me to work hard. I enjoyed the fact that we were granted extra day to submit assignments. See you at GRADUATION.

DM Criminal Justice - Wonderful, exciting and very educational. I have made a lot of connections and lifelong friends during this Symposium. The Drs. are hands on and extremely gracious when handling the students which makes for a comfortable setting. There is nothing that I change nor do I have any further input. Thank you CTU for the experience!!!

Hotel doesn't match the conference. The cartoonish style of the hotel is not a professional academic environment. The conference rooms are small and placed randomly. The AC/cooling of the rooms is inadequate. The feature presentation while interesting is not appropriate for a doctoral program. We do not require a motivational speaker. The individual meeting with faculty should be expanded. The food/mixers were well done.

Since the beginning, my experience has been awesome. I earned all of my degrees with CTU. For this program, since the beginning, my experience with the admissions team and Jolanta was very engaging and amazing. I love Jolanta. Very easy to talk to. I would recommend anyone to CTU.

From the very start it was a great experience. My fears and apprehension was put to rest from the start with admissions and carried through to my first class. I have learn more in one semester and one symposium than I had in my previous doctoral program. I highly recommend anyone looking to enroll in a doctoral program that is looking for support from start to finish.

Attending CTU has been the best decision I have made. I have no regrets at all choosing this school after my attendance with AIU. I am going to try and influence a friend of mine who is thinking of pursuing her Doctorate and I am excited overall for what this journey lies ahead.

CTU has been a very good school with respect of support to the students. The atmosphere created for the student is phenomenal. The networking events, the access to the faculty, the friendly manner of the faculty members gives the student the confident and motivation to complete the program.

I think the symposium is definitely a must for every student that is going through the program. My first year, I had a lot of information that I got from the event; which made it very instrumental in changing my research topic to what it is now.

The overall experience that I have had at Colorado Technical University has been remarkable, the entire staff has been top notch. The initial admissions process was very easy, and when I wasn’t on top of my own information, a diligent and professional admissions representative would contact me. My student success coach is second to none, Courtney ** is there to field questions, and help in any way possible. This first year has flown by, this second symposium is just as good as good as the last. I look forward to completing my program and referring my friends to Colorado Technical University!!

It’s been a great experience from day one. From application to orientation to the classes. The faculty members are super friendly and are very helpful. I hope to finish my Doctoral Degree in Data Analytics in about 2.5 years. I hope that the journey is as smooth as the last two months. Thank you!

Professors and staff always have the student's best interest in mind. CTU is surely success oriented. Symposiums are always a great place to catch up with other students and staff. Meals here at the Curtis were great. I was here for the alumni session and Dr. ** did a great job facilitating that discussion.

I am so excited to be part of Cohort 64. From the amazing admissions team to the beginning of my doctoral courses, it has been great thus far. My only recommendation would be for more engagement from the instructors online. Sometimes it takes a whole week for an email response. Other than that, I have never been more excited and happy to be here at CTU!!!

The experience I have had overall has been positive. The only suggestion is that the advisers should check in on their students before they graduate. I didn't know that I could start my program and bypass my last two classes until it was too late. I think that should have been communicated way before. Otherwise, I truly believe that they want to see students succeed.

My journey with CTU has been great. Symposium awesome! Faculty and staff have been very helpful throughout my journey. I transferred over from Northcentral University due to lack of support from instructors and staff. At Colorado Technical University, I receive lots of support from the staff and my mentors. I will definitely recommend this university to friends and family.

My CTU doctoral experience is that it is tough but gratifying. I recommend as a DCS student the inclusion of writing software into the program if possible. Other than this, I enjoy the program. The bar is set high, but it should be.

My experience with CTU started with my associate's degree and I must say that now I'm working on my doctoral that I haven't been disappointed thus far. The entire CTU staff that I have encountered are really a resource and motivating force that helps you get through your toughest moments. I'm also glad that I attended the symposium where I gained that additional knowledge and meeting my classmates and even coming away from it with friends. I'm excited because there is Greatness coming!

So far I have really enjoyed the process of starting my doctoral. I actually never imagine of taking my studies to this level, but I can truly say that everything that I have done up to this point has really been a blessing. At this point there is nothing that I can see needs to be changed with the enrollment process or working with the individuals that helped me get to this point. I actually finished my master's degree a week before I enrolled into the doctoral program and the only thing that I find funny is my friends always asking me why do I want to get another degree? And I tell them that I love to learn and I will continue to learn with the help of CTU.

I appreciate all the help from students and faculty to enrich my doctoral experience. Everyone's experience is unique and I learned that I am not the only with similar issues in the doctoral experience. My second symposium was just as great as the first symposium.

CTU has been an amazing experience. Everyone goes out of their way to help and make sure you succeed. I am honored to be a part of the first DNP program. Faculty create an environment where failure is not an option and help to facilitate your success.

So far the faculty are very involved. I came to this symposium (Computer Science - Big Data) with many unanswered questions. Most have been answered and I now know what is expected of me as a student. I look forward to what I will evolve into after completing this program.

Easy application process, knowledgeable staff, and eager to promote success. The program has defined parameters to support progress and provide guidance on the journey. Students are able to network and relate to peers with great ease. Classes are user friendly for a busy schedule and fit into an active lifestyle.

When looking for a Doctoral Program that would also fit into my busy schedule I didn't know where to start or even what to look for. I gave up many times in my search thinking that maybe this wasn't for me. However, getting that call from the admissions counselor started the ball rolling and the fact that he also showed concern for the what was going on personally in my life and how to balance it. Now fast forward to the symposium and all of the systems and interactions that they have provided through student and professor networking has just reconfirmed that I can do this and I am not alone in this journey. The experience has been wonderful.

Improve the disability services at symposium location by providing scooter for disable person. Good thing about CTU is that working students who do not have time for traditional schooling. Attending CTU is helping me obtain the degree to raise at your work.

This is an awesome experience thus far, I learn a lot and willing to come again. It is also idea to make this more collaborative like the first section with Dr. ** and Dr. **, I like the concept. I also like the meals served, fantastic!!!

This has been an outstanding experience thus far. I've learned so much, and things are starting to make so much more sense to me in regards to the different aspects of my program. The staff has been very supportive through this first symposium.

My learning objectives may be different from those of my peers. While the quality of some coursework has been below expectations, I have been able to learn the course materials and am doing the meta-learning about the social sciences I have desired. There does seem inordinate emphasis of some administrative points and useless policies. So much emphasis on the impacts of submitting work late but so much leniency on those impacts with proper coordination ahead of time. 2 weeks no post = drop out?! (This makes no sense.)

I have enjoyed meeting with the different kinds of people that are here. The people that I have met vary in the years in the program from start to being close to finish. They provide wonderful information and clues of how to start and finish the program.

Only completed a couple courses so far, but the flexibility of the online platform is great and the Professors and other staff are always available to help. The Doctoral Symposium for Doctoral students is great and extremely helpful in alleviating the fears and anxiety associated with the dissertation process and it is a great way to connect with fellow online students.

There are aspects of the University which I have enjoyed. The information taught is relevant and informative. Some professors are not as good as others. My experience with symposium has been amazing and I am rethinking some of my options. I appreciate the information given by the alumni and the professors I have spoken with at symposium.

CTU has been an excellent learning experience for me. I started with the Masters Program in Cyber and recently got hired for my dream job with Booz Allen Hamilton. The Doctorate gets better with every class! I am so thankful I chose CTU and I look forward to graduation in 2020.

When I first started CTU, I was in love and I thoroughly enjoyed my classes and each teacher. That all changed upon graduation when I found out I owed over 3k. This has caused me to miss out on better paying jobs because I am unable to obtain an official transcript. A degree is supposed to open doors but a degree with CTU leaves those doors closed! I’m not sure how they expect to be paid if a person can’t get a better paying job. Thanks for a great experience that has led to nothing!

I recently graduated with a Bachelors in Project Management. I am giving a three-star review because I am really in the middle of the road with my experience. While I learned quite a bit from several of the classes, I almost felt like some of the instructors were at a lower educational level than the students. When I finally got to my core PM classes, the instructors dramatically improved and I felt like they were more interested in the students’ education. The whole discussion board setup has got to go, or at the very least, it needs to be completely revamped. My second-to-last class had a debate format set up for the discussion board, and that was the only time I enjoyed the DB during my degree program. It’s too repetitive and you’re forced to respond to other students’ postings and there is very little to be learned the way it is currently set up.

I have had a great time learning from my classmates, professors and mentors. I would not trade this experience for anything, and have used what I have learned with for the job that I currently have now. I look forward to applying for more jobs using the degree that I have to help mentor others in my civilian career field.

I really loved my time at CTU. The instructors were great! They were very understanding whenever life got in the way of class. I experience the death of my grandmother and the surgery of my daughter during my time while attending school. Both times, my instructors were understanding and help me to be able to complete my classes.

I loved CTU! The chance to finish school and have my prior experience be counted was phenomenal. The general population of campus was true adults and not kids out of high school. Another plus for me. Loved my choice of picking CTU.

When I first came to CTU I was not sure if I was going to be able to attend this school. But after my success coach spent time with me answering my questions. I had a different feel about the school, and studies. At this point I will say that the teachers and staff all played a major role in helping me to stay focus and keep pushing forward to be successful and to have come this far. Thank You CTU & STAFF.

Very competent Staff from Professors to support staff. Flexible programs and great follow up. This makes you feel that you are not just a name but a person. I highly recommend CTU. Watch out I will be back. Great going.

This was my first time taking classes online, so I was a little nervous how things would go. The faculty was very supportive and the program curriculum was on point. I finished my degree in two years thanks to Fast Track!!! Great school and experience!!

I had some great teachers, classmates and student advisor. The CTU faculty were there to answer question, give advice and help me every step of the way. I will never forget my experience as I achieved a lifelong goal. Thank You!!!

My experience with CTU was amazing. It allowed me to go to school while being overseas and serving in the Navy. The material was very comprehensive and detailed. All the professors I had were helpful and understanding that I had been out of school for a while.

This was the best online program experience I have had. I completed my BSN online and the teachers were always available if you had questions and were very knowledgeable. I have recommended this school to 6 of my friends, one is graduating with me and the others will be graduating next year. I am grateful that there are programs like this, that allow you to work and get a great education.

The entire staff at CTU is very supportive. The professors are amazing and truly care about your future. Everyone at CTU is there for you every step of the way. Would recommend to anyone especially those adult learners that need the support, the flexibility, and the encouragement. Thank you CTU!!!

For one to have the Victory, one must first one's self in motion. To be a winner you must participate, with having C.T.U. on my side I have put the wheels of success into motion. My journey is in motion, if you have vision and a dream put it into motion. Winners always enjoy the victory, so for you to enjoy the winner's reward get it into motion.

Throughout the process, and the journey, CTU was there to offer tech support, library services, admission help and workload assistance. Even when times got difficult, there was always someone there to listen and offer aid. Thank you CTU for fulfilling one of my life goals. With your help I am now a Dr of Computer Science!!!

CTU has been a great experience for the last 3 years, and I look forward to the next year in my master's program. CTU is family for life. If you don't know what excellence looks likes, go to CTU and you will.

I have been blessed to encounter numerous people through my journey. Some of the people who were pivotal to my success were Dr. Kennedy **, Dr. Rea Denise **. Dr. ** was also a constant encouragement through Quant and at every symposium I had the pleasure of meeting him at. The one thing this school has for the most part are OUTSTANDING instructors and support staff. Also, thanks to CTU and the symposiums I have been able to network and create relationships that will hopefully last a lifetime.

I love CTU! I have been going to this school for quite some time and enjoy it! I love the structured schedule and the flexibility I have with watching archived chats and homework that is planned out in advance! I definitely recommend this to all of my friends that are looking to advance their educational and career goals!

I enrolled as an online student in January 2017 and didn't feel like I was getting the most out of the experience so I enrolled at the Colorado Springs campus. I figured I would be able to maximize my GI Bill benefits by doing so. At first things were great but I have had trouble getting disbursements in a timely manner. I left work to attend classes in person and my family and I depend on those disbursements to cover living expenses. I have had to call and change payment dates for bills and make payment arrangements with utility company and landlords because I don't know when or if my disbursements will be in my checking account. The inconsistency in the billing department is ridiculous. Sometimes I get a disbursement in 3 days, sometimes I get it in 6 days, sometimes I get it in 20 days. I'm shocked that this is allowed to happen.

I began this program in August of 2016 earning all credits attempted to this date. CTU was not my first choice, but after much research, I found that it was the best choice for my studies of Cyber Security. The Instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful with the assignments combined with the assets of the Library and Learning/Reading Materials provided for the sessions. As of this date, my current session is CS215 Intermediate C++ with Dr. ** and he is exceptional! The details of each assignment are communicated clear and concise with real-time response to any issue involving the session.

Regina was my admission advisor. Without her assistance and "checking -in to make sure you are breathing" help, I don't know that I would be in my doctoral program. She "held my hand" and walked me through the process and I feel honored to be a student at CTU.

The Doctoral Symposium is such an excellent opportunity that every Doctoral student needs to attend because of the guidelines from the CTU faculty, the networking event between other Doctoral students who are walking the same journey as yourselves. Great time.

When I applied online and I received an email and phone call from Admissions Advisor. He explained the whole admission process. He made sure that I will apply to CTU. He helped with the paperwork and after 14 days I was admitted to my doctoral porgram at CTU. Thanks Chris ** for the awesome Admission Advisor.

This symposium is great not just for networking with faculty and doctoral classmates but invaluable to completing the doctoral journey. This where one learns about all and everything one needs to succeed and earn a Doctoral Degree. See you guys in October 2018.

Very informative, enjoyed the camaraderie and support from the faculty and Administrative team. Very impressive Foundations of Dissertation, Library Resources and Alumni workshop. Thank you CTU for making feel encouraged and inspired to complete the journey.

Each session had important takeaways which will contribute toward successfully completing my doctoral journey; however, as a new student attending my first symposium, I must say the Creating the Foundations of Your Dissertation was the most valuable session I have attended so far. The early morning optional sessions which build upon what you learn in this session would be more valuable if the Creating Foundations session was a required session available to first-time students on the first day.

First Symposium - This is an excellent experience for students who are starting their doctoral program. You get a lot of information about the dissertation process and you are able to connect with people who are studying the same topics as you. Those people will be a great resource throughout the doctoral journey.

The doctoral journey has been one of the most humbling and rewarding personal experiences of my life. The quality of leadership and expertise in the process of the dissertation journey and in building students into research experts is outstanding.

I was so excited to start my program and after 3 years so excited to complete this accomplishment. I have enjoyed every step and the experience has changed my life! So many opportunities are open and the future is bright.

I came to CTU to finish my Doctorate in Computer Science with Cyber Security and Information Assurance (DCS-CSIA). This university has a very novel approach of encouragement support to help each student reach and exceed their goals. I will always highly recommend this experience to others. If you want to finish what you start and succeed at each step then this is the place.

I started CTU in 2015, and since that time I have worked very diligently to graduate on time. My colleagues have started their programs in a brick and mortar university, yet I'm graduating in June 2018. I thank this program for providing structure as well as educating me for these three years.

CTU Symposium - This event has always been well organized and extremely user friendly. Staff is courteous and willing to help no matter how small the matter. Ms. ** and her advising team (Kendra, Benjamin & Dr. **) are knowledgeable and bend over backwards to address student concerns. Faculty is superb!!! Thank you.

Throughout the entire Symposium, the Staff and the Professors, especially Mrs. **, was amazing. They were extremely helpful, helped me decide/focus my dissertation topic, and made sure I got the most out of the Symposium experience.

I have been with CTU since my ASGS. I have completed an ASGS, MBA, and now a DM-GL. The experience has been wonderful! I would recommend CTU to anyone who wants a great education. The material, the staff, and the university as a whole are stellar.

FRAUD. Colorado Technical University is an accredited for-profit college with both online courses and physical locations in CO, offering Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees. Their parent company, Career Education Corp., has recently paid out $10M in a settlement concerning allegations of falsified job placement practices, and deceiving students about accreditation. 'Technical' problems while enjoying a wealth of students from around the country.

I just wanted to share the great experience that I had with technical support today with CTU. I was having issues logging into the student portal and downloading the student MS Office package. I called in and a gentleman named Melvin helped me get everything taken care of. From resetting the password to troubleshooting my browser, he thoroughly and patiently walked me through the problem and the solution. He then helped me set up my MS Office and now I am ready to start school with CTU. By far the best experience I have ever had with any technical support and this experience helps me look forward to working with the university in the future.

I currently owe CTU over $4000 because they added a check for tuition reimbursement from my employer twice on my account when there was only one check. After this entry mistake they processed pell grants and disbursed 2 refunds and sent me to collections saying that I owe them. When I called to make payment arrangements I was told they need a $483 down payment and then it would be a nearly $400 monthly payment!!! They were not willing to work with me on this. I am a single parent and this was the school's mistake. Are you kidding me? Not to mention both people I spoke to were extremely rude.

I am 51 and just started college in October and I'm already in debt for over $9000. This is with financial aid, Grant's, and loan's. I've only received about $800 total in refunds and everyone I know gets back thousands. I don't understand what's going on with the financial aid department. They are completely lost. I have seriously considered switching school's.

I did not like the weak curriculum courses that mainly consisted of posting to a discussion board so I decided to go to a real university. The first 5-10 calls about going back didn't bother me too much I just told them I am going to a different school. Know I receive at least 2-3 calls a day from one of their call centers from different numbers so no matter how many numbers I block they just keep calling even after I said to stop. Will never recommend this low standard and harassing program.

I have been with CTU within the last 5 years. There been good moments with the school. I had to leave in 2017 due to financial aid funds. Then down the road CTU re-entry calls me to try to get back. I said okay. Then they open student portal for me. The funds are available and they say, "Oh sorry. Not enough funds." No problem and again few months later again I said okay one more time lol. Like always I tell them, "Don't have funds to complete school." This be my third time lol, this time financial office say do this do that, OMG lol, third is a charm. This time told CTU please calling and these ** at the school hope would stop calling my phone lol.

I am so tired of looking at bad reviews given to CTU. If you look at those reviews, it really shows WHY they gave bad reviews. It has NOTHING to do with the school. It has to do with students that do not put work into their own future. The programs is wonderful. You have no books to purchase, the instructors are very understanding and helpful, and it's reasonably priced compared to other schools. The RN to BSN program was easy to complete. There was no need to register for the classes you need. The school took care of it from day #1. I had tried to register with other schools, including my hometown college without any help from the advisers, only to become frustrated, which ultimately made me decide to put off my schooling. BOTTOM LINE: If you are thinking of furthering your career, please consider CTU. You will not be disappointed.

The IT and programming courses offered seemed promising, but once I got through the classes, I discovered they were too easy and too many of my seemingly clueless fellow students were passing their classes. I was putting in a lot more effort and had a lot more experience in the fields of study than my fellow students, and I know this based on our team-oriented tasks and the many times they would contact me before they even contacted the professor simply because I would respond faster. Almost every single teacher was an adjunct professor in my classes, and the "live chats" were little more than PowerPoints and lectures.

Their financial aid department sucks, they wait to do everything the last minute... I can’t wait until July gets here so I can transfer. They put anything in their notes, I do not recommend this school.

I have greatly enjoyed attending the CTU Doctoral Symposium. The caliber of the distinguished faculty and staff are top notch! The accommodations at The Curtis Hotel are excellent. Thank you very much.

This school was fantastic till a few years ago. There had to be some kind of change and they brought in a bunch of idiots to run it. Billing doesn't have a clue what they're doing and the quality of the teachers has declined. The school is run at subpar level at best. Go somewhere else. Trust me you will be happy you did.

Issue has been resolved

My experience with CTU has been a roller coaster ride from day one. I first started my attempts to become a student in June of 2017. I applied, did my financial aid, and submitted my transcripts. I wanted to finish my master's degree and CTU had the right program. I liked the length of time it would take to complete it and the cost was reasonable. The first bad experience was with the Academic Advisor who I quickly realized must receive a commission from each student he gets started. The class that I was to take first had already started by the time I had everything completed but he was rushing me to hurry up and post a discussion board so that I could be counted for class attendance. However, I hadn’t received an award for financial aid yet and wasn’t even sure whether I would be given enough to pay for all of my tuition. Plus, I wanted the same chance everyone else received.

I have received both my associates and bachelors (business) from CTU. I am currently earning my masters (all in business). There are both pros and cons about this school. The program is amazing! It is real-life scenario based and can be easily applied to the real world. However, on the downside - the financial aid department is HORRIBLE. They are poorly trained and they are great at assuming (you know what they say when you assume). After my associates degree, I found they cannot be trusted. They ALWAYS refund too much and then put your account on hold (literally the next day after they send you the stipend).

CTU makes you beg for your refund. This time was the worst. I received my VA deposit on December 12 in my CTU account. Being a father of 4, I had depended on it for Christmas. When I called on the 23rd, they informed they had until the 26th to release it. They are holding it to make money, but my family needed it for Christmas! They still haven't released It! I went here because they claimed to be military friendly, work with people who work, and cared about their students. One professor failed me at the last minute because two assignments were late. I even emailed him prior about my grandmother passing and explained the situation. I failed, lower GPA and I am paying for the class Again! Another great example of caring for your students! They know they have you though because you can't transfer out or you'll lose credits! It's a racket!

I am very concerned about all the negative comments that have appeared on this site. CTU needs to be investigated because of all the negative reviews. However, I have not found this to be the case. I am halfway through my DM - Technology Management. The courses are very well balanced, the instructors are fair. I have not had any financial aid trouble, although I have not had to withdraw from a course. The negative reviews sound frightening, and I am deeply concerned that when I graduate from this program I will be in debt for $30,000 and just hope that the degree from CTU has a positive effect on my income, or this whole thing will be in vain.

I was told that by the counselors that the credits from Colorado Technical University were transferable so I signed up for classes. I was also told that if I had any problems with any of my classes I would get help, I would tutors available to me. I started struggling with business Algebra so I tried to sign up for a Tutor. I was told there were no Tutors available and that I should have signed up for the Tutor early on. I couldn't have known this information, when I was told tutors were available. This fact was not explained to me. I also could not have known that I would needed a tutor.

My experience was horrible. Financial aid first told me that I would be receiving a Skype in a refund and broke all the details down which made sense. After weeks of staying on constantly reaching out to them to remind them to review required documents and submitting everything in, it came down to the time to receive my aid. They informed me I wasn't receiving any and I had to pay out of pocket. They completely lied to me and kept me thinking I was going to receive money. Don't waste your time!

My Daughter decided to switch to online school. Huge mistake. CTU now has her in collections for over $9000. They won't even talk to us when we call. They kept screwing up her Financial account, so they refunded over $6000 back to FAFSA and now they are going after her for it. And when it got screwed up they locked her out of her classes, so she failed several of them, so she now is having to pay again to take the classes. This is the absolute worst online school. I wish I was aware of who she was enrolling in before she did, because this so-called University is an absolute Scam, and there are thousands of Reviews similar to mine. Not sure how to get them investigated, but they need to be shut down.

Been trying to get a serious problem resolved that continues to plague my son's account balance. A few semesters back, we had a serious overage in funds available through Stafford and Parent Plus loans, and they refunded $3300 back to the government and then charged it to my son's account. I keep asking for someone to explain to me how you send money back to the government as not needed, but place it as a charge to his balance that he owes. This is flat out robbery and I plan to contact the Attorney General in my state.

They are robbing me... I'm a student now and they are literally making sure I don't get a refund. This experience is so traumatic and frustrating, and I wouldn't recommend this school to anyone. I'm watching all my friends who chose other schools enjoy their refunds and get new computers and so on and so forth. I'm lucky to get 200 at some point. There is very little info what they are doing with MY money and they don't explain it to you. OMG I am in tears writing about this because I have tried to discuss it with them and it went ignored. I'm looking to others involved as I have read about similar issues. Let's get this looked into.

This school was great at first, I got two degrees in 4 years. That is until I got to my masters degree. I took three class and decided not to go any further because I took a different career path. They took most of my loans gave some back to the DOE, and somehow now I owe them money even though they got over 10,000 dollars in my loans. I only took 3 classes and each class is 2400 dollars. How the hell do I owe them money. I don’t recommend this school at all. If I had know that they were a FOR PROFIT SCHOOL from the beginning I would have never attended. They always take my loans first and not my Pell grants. I think they need looked into.

One of the best ideas I ever took on. When in grammar school Video learning through movies was the best. I always thought Computer generated classes would work for me and I was right. Hard work, but rewarding experience that taught me more than just words on a page. I met some great people that I still keep in touch with. After learning MS Office I was able to earn a 3.80 GPA ASBA. It's a lifelong learning experience.

Loved the presentations and the workshops, however I would give at least a 1-hour to 2-hour break for people in the middle of the day to decompress, especially those that have back problems. Sitting so long is very uncomfortable. Other than that I thought it was excellent.

DM - Global Leadership - My first symposium and my jitters for my journey are calmed. The excitement remains. I do realize the journey will be my greatest challenge; however, with the networking and 100% support of CTU I will succeed! Bottom line, an amazing experience coupled with fun and engaging workshops. I look forward to my next symposium!

I am tired of begging for funds from Colorado Technical University Online, especially, since my coursework in each of my courses are completed up to unit 3, with 2 out of 2 assignments graded with A's and B+. They need to Post My Funds, or, I promise I will walk away from this institution, that I just graduated from with my Associates in June of 2017, and no more work in any of these course will be completed until you do. I am tired of being harassed and my funds being released on Fridays, so that you give the bank the opportunity to make money off my federal funds under my social security number due to the bank CTU ONLINE OWNS DO NOT PROCESS OR BETTER YET DIRECT DEPOSIT FUNDS THAT BELONG TO YOU ON FRIDAY, Saturday, or Sunday, but they do make money off your low income federal funds in my name.

In August of 2015, I enrolled with Colorado Technical University and just recently graduated to be hit with fees that were applied to my account because financial advisors at CTU either did not fully evaluate my income to award appropriately, during FSFA considerations, or this was a bait and switch to get me to continue my education through CTU. However, in 2015, I completed the FSFA documents and application process as instructed using my 2014 tax return and was awarded $2,039.59 for the school term from August 16, 2015 – May 10, 2016.

I have to say I was truly happy with my experience at CTU for the most part! I was working on my 4-year degree but started out obtaining an associate degree first. I was recommended by my adviser and it was a great ideal. After completing my associate degree, I continued working on my 4-year degree in Business Administration (Project Management). I also had a major change in my employment working in the biotech industry that required 75-80 travel within the USA. The way CTU online is structured I was able to join classes and do my homework while sitting in hotel rooms which was a big help. I was obtaining financial aid/loan which help a lot.

Professor **, is a wonderful Instructor! I enjoyed her class, and live chats. Prof. **, I will recommend to anyone, who wants to be in Literature. I learned a lot more, than I had expected from Literature: It is amazing class with Prof. **.

I am from small town Louisiana, I began my journey with CTU in October 2015, at the age of 46. On September 20, 2017 I submitted my last assignment in earning my BSBA-Project Management. Each one of us encounters obstacles that make us wonder if this additional burden is worth it. Well for me it was. I encountered the obstacles, after relocating to Georgia from Louisiana my mother's health became an issue for months. At a time I had to come home to help with her health care. I found myself using my schoolwork as a way to get away from the mental stress of my mother's health issues by focusing on my class assignments. It helped me stay positive and has taught me that I can accomplish anything I set my mind to. I am very pleased with my experience at CTU.

CTU was the biggest mistake I have ever made. The so called teachers are to say the least heartless. I was on the Dean's list while going to this school, and during the winter of 2008 I had an unfortunate death in the family which prevented me from my assignment. I emailed my teacher and informed them that I would still turn in the paper even though I had a lot going on, to which they responded that if I didn't have it there on time don't turn it in, because it now cut into their vacation. I have been hounded non stop by the financial aide office for withdrawing from my classes. At the time of enrollment, my mother was active duty military and I was on the G.I. Bill.

I want to say that I recommend CTU online classes to family and friends all the time. I also stress for them to get their education early and not wait years as I did. If I had it to do again CTU online would still be the institution for me to attend.

The complaint I have and message that consumers should be informed of, particularly students wishing to receive their education via online from Colorado Technical University (CTU), is that for the most part they can expect diversity as involving culture parallel of quality instructors. For the most part, that has been my experience. Aspiring matriculating students should also be aware of the urgent need for working independently in order to acquire the level of learning essential to proper success. Although there will probably be some instructors who appear not to be as efficient and caring as others, the general situation is that counselors/academic coaches will be available to assist where possible.

I am looking for other past students that were lied to or mislead by Academic Advisor's or Admissions for a class action lawsuit. Please email me at ** with your story and contact information and we will add you to the list. I was misled and it has resulted in a $1733 bill. I have faxed my information to them twice and one department says they have it, another says they don't. My employer even sent them information (since it was employer paid benefit for education) and still nothing has been done to resolve the issue. There is no accountability. I look forward to hearing from others who have experienced like situations.

This school is a scam! One of my instructors states my OV score was too high and gave me an F. I knew I didn't copy it from anywhere but she told me to contact Tech which I did. They said it was just an error and they sent her an email along with student advising. She did not respond in the time she was required. The school informed me they dropped the ball and they would fix it, they didn't. I had to take the class again but the teacher kept giving me Fs because she was upset I filed a complaint so I had to take it for a 3rd time even though I had never received any bad grades in any other classes.

My name is Charlene **. CTU has change my life in two ways, one I am a ** 55 year old student who lives in one of the largest Public Housing in Richmond Va., who stop believing that attaining a higher education was possible. After attending CTU and getting my Associate and now working on my Bachelor's degree I now know if you are willing to work very hard you will get to your goal of getting your degree. Yes, you have to change the way you manage your time and attitude about working on your degree. With that though in mind it leaves me to my second reason is I had to determine what is important to me that would keep me striving towards working on getting my degree. I had to stop making excuses for why my life was the way it was and realize that only person that can hinder me from getting my prize was me or other words my degree was me.

I would say my time here at CTU was a great experience! Take a person who did not know what they wanted to do for a career, but yet they were still patient and understanding. I hope all the best to the future of CTU as far as business and healthcare.

My experience has been wonderful here at CTU. I can't say that at times the classes haven't been a bit difficult but with the help of the professors we all got through it just fine. There are two gentlemen that are and were my favorite and they are Dr. David ** and Professor Ray **. I am wishing them well and many BLESSINGS. I hope to have them for classes before long. All of my classes have been online.

I graduated with my MS in Human Resource Management and currently working on my Doctoral of Management. It took me 25 years do it and now my goal that I have set is almost complete. The time span includes from my taking care of my mom who had severe stroke and had to learn thing over again. Leaving school to take care of her which I do not regret. Then me having a nervous breakdown and finally get back to somewhat of good health. The passing of my mother and being homeless 5 different times since then. However, when CTU called in 2011 talked with me about enrolling in school. It was the best decision I have made and I am glad that I did. #CTUProud, #CTUStrong, #CTUForever!

I have a question… Why do CTU disburse our loans and grants in increments??? I only got 200 dollars for my grants... but why. It seems as though they have found a way to cheat the student of their financial monies. No matter how you fill out the forms your disbursements will be what they want to give you. Which is very minimal most of the time. In my opinion this school is only in it for financial gain. Sad... but true.

I think going to this school was a major mistake. The teachers bring you up in front of the academic review for two individual papers I wrote. The teacher claim the papers were someone else and my papers went before an academic review board and they sided with teacher but their OVI said the papers were original. Then all at once I don't have anymore financial aid left and now I owe 3500. I should went here and the instructors are not professional. I don't like being call a cheat and given two "F" on two perfectly good papers. I'm leaving CTU. I'm withdrawing next week. Don't go here.

I obtained my bachelor's degree, with a great deal of frustration with the financial aid and student accounts offices. Many times they had screwed up my financial aid and were unwilling to figure it out. They said I owed amounts and after being explained why I do not owe those amounts they told me I would be dropped and at one time not be allowed to reenroll unless I signed a payment agreement. After I signed one, they increased the amount due twice without even discussing it with me. I called many times and argued the matter only to be basically told they were right and I was wrong and I had to pay without any further consideration.

I attended CTU-Online for 2+ years to obtain my Bachelors in Criminal Justice. I found many of the Criminal Justice classes to be very informative and allowed you to learn all aspects of the Criminal Justice system. I liked that many of the assignments had very structured standards but also allowed for you to choose your own topics to write about. For example, if we had to write about the legalities of Search and Seizure and the 4th Amendment, we were allowed to choose our own case laws and how it backs up our thoughts instead of being told which case-laws we had to learn about. This allows a more valuable approach because after many semesters you begin to learn many of the case-laws surrounding the different amendments.

CTU was an experience that gave me a better understanding about what my limitations and abilities in the work/school environment. Learning more about myself along with the necessary academics has allowed a growth in understanding that is priceless.

Bachelor's Degree in Healthcare Management - I have enjoyed the time I spent here while getting my degree. I have learned a lot both from the faculty and my fellow students. The classes were well organized. The whole staff was very friendly. Thank you very much.

I was the first in my family to get a degree--and now I have my Doctorate in Management. The faculty, staff and mentors at CTU really worked hard to help me achieve my goals. Their expertise and insight was invaluable and without them I would not have finished. From the beginning they encouraged me to think about my dissertation topic and were there for me all the way. Fantastic experience! I can't say thank you enough. I would recommend CTU to everyone.

Accounting - The CTU online experience was the greatest! I feel so privileged to have attended such a fantastic University. This experience has given me the knowledge to make the best of the rest of my life! I would recommend this experience to anyone!

I was able to earn my Bachelors degree while I worked a full-time job and it paid off in the end! Now I work in the industry in which I studied. Each and every student's experience will be different based on the effort and time in which you dedicate to the program. Make the best of your time in each class and don't procrastinate!

At the age of 44 I would have never thought I could finish my Master's with a family and working a full-time job. I would like to share with other. With God and positive friend all things are possible. I really enjoyed the staff.

My experience was a great one. When I began, I was unsure how I would be able to fit in a full-time doctoral studies program with a full-time career which requires much travel outside of the country in addition to family responsibilities. However, the program is set up to keep you on track and I received extremely valuable advice from Dr. ** and my fellow cohort members. Staying ahead of deadlines was the key to success!

Going to CTU was a good decision for me and a good experience. I signed up twice and quit before actually going. I was very nervous about going to school, I did not think that I would do well. When I finally decided to go it was wonderful. I started off with some Fast Track classes and went from there. I started school January 2015 just going for my Associates and then ended up going for my Bachelors. I graduated in November of 2016. I will have to say this is one of the best things that I have done with my life. I could not have picked a better school to attend.

CTU has changed my life tremendously! Many many doors have opened for me since I finished my Accounting degree. It is a good school for the student that has more than school to worry about. The teachers were always helpful and willing to help you if you put in the time and effort. Thanks to those countless teachers I got to where I am.

My experience was challenging, frustrating, ongoing and relentless, and overall absolutely wonderful. I am grateful and humbled, I feel like I have achieved a dream of my entire family... I am the 1st in my family to receive this MBA Human Resources degree. I thank you so much CTU for all you have helped me accomplish.

This has been a wonderful experience attending CTU. Being employed full time with many personal obligations, the online education environment was perfect for me. Although stressful at times with the very accelerated pace, I was able to maintain my composure (most of the time) and graduate with Magna Cum Laude honors. I would recommend this college to anyone looking for an easy means to obtain education. The greatest thing for me was the Fast Track opportunity that helped me speed through some of my courses. Thanks CTU #IAMCTU

Taking the online courses has been so helpful and amazing. I am able to fulfill my mother, wife, and caretaker duties and still be able to be in school. All the instructors I have worked with are amazing.

International Business - This was a really good, challenging experience. As classes went on, they got a bit tougher which was great. The instructors were always helpful, even after hours. Career svcs. always helped when I had a question. And though I've had about 4 of them, my student aid/counselor was always there for me when I needed them.

I decided attended CTU online about a year and a half ago because I was a new mother to newborn twins and figured online schooling may be easier. During my last session, my babies were constantly sick and trying to juggle doctor's visits and school work had just become overwhelming so I made the decision to withdraw. During the withdrawal process, I questioned the rep several times about if I would owe anything to the school for withdrawing early. I was repeatedly assured that I wouldn't because financial aid had covered the part of the session I have completed. Fast forward a year and a half and now I cannot order my transcripts because I have a balance that I was assured would not exist.

I just graduated with high honors from Colorado Technical University with an Associate of Science degree in Health Administration Services. My student advisor was real helpful in signing me up for college, when I was feeling a bit anxious. You see I am 58 years young and my last school time was in 2004. My goal (listed in a chat with the admissions advisor) was to learn Billing and Coding, along with the other classes I was to receive. My ultimate goal was to learn Billing and Coding to PAY for my associate degree loans and earn a bachelor of science degree in Health Administrative Services and PAY for that degree, while sitting at home doing Billing and Coding.

I enrolled into CTU back in 2014, I had did research and like most do I weighed the pros the cons along with my needs and made the decision to give CTU a try, I regret that decision, and this is why. When I enrolled I spoke with a nice young woman named Aricelli. She was in admissions, she was not pushy, very helpful during the whole process. I am well aware that the enrollment counselors are usually measured on the students that enroll so I can see why they try and sell the benefits of their institution. When working with admissions and asking my questions everything sounded wonderful. I was told I would have full support that the instructors worked very hard along with many other things that would sound appealing to a prospective student. I went ahead and enrolled and for the first couple years I was doing very well for myself.

When I had enrolled I was dealing with health issues. I let the student advisor know this as well as the instructor. With the exception of two of them I got no understanding. No chance to make up. Even got put on probation. The new students advisors advice, "Well if you don't feel like you can meet the requirements...don't appeal." Just very uncaring and not professional and poor access to resources to do the assignments. The Intellipath I like the best though.

I am getting ready to graduate from Colorado Technical University with a Associate degree. I wish I would of looked them up on ConsumerAffairs and on College Mill Police before registering. They charge a whole lot of money and you're paying student loans back the rest of your life. In 2015, CTUO (Colorado Technical University Online) started charging a technical fee of $125.00 every couple of courses. Every online student is charged this. If you stop and think about it, that is a whole lot of money CTU receives for a technical fee. Is that really necessary?

I have been attending CTU since 2015 and I am set to have BA in Criminal Justice Human Services in December. I have had many experiences here at the school. I was bullied out of the Criminal Justice Club and was never told that the students' actions were inappropriate or anything and actually the BULLY now runs the club. I told instructors about a student asking me to copy my papers and they did nothing to correct the problem and this student is still attending even though she cheats and uses other people's work. I went to the department chair asking for help to choose a degree because I wanted to be a Chemical Dependency Counselor and I was told to take the Human Service degree. And that was all the information that was given to me. Well I found out through an instructor that the degree was not good enough and I also had to go through many years of certification to get my CAC license.

I have went to CTU and obtained my associates then bachelor's and most recent my masters in 2017. I realize the policy has changed and now you are charged a 200 grad fee. My problem with this is I wasn't charged until after I finished classes a week after. I got my last siphon the beginning of March which I could have paid then. Now I had to file bankruptcy because of Med. So now I have a degree but I don't have a degree. Nice way to appreciate your students.

CTU allowed me to receive my BSBA in 2 and a half years! The faculty and students that I have come across in my journey have all been helpful and eager to assist. I would absolutely recommend CTU to any professional looking to better themselves while still maintaining a regular work life.

I completed a BS degree in Software Engineering at CTU. Five years later I graduated from an Ivy League institution (Harvard) with an MA degree. I then returned to CTU for a Doctorate in Computer Science. I was self-pay throughout, and never had any type of financial aid issue. In fact, when I ran into some financial challenges along the way, CTU worked out a payment plan to keep me in school.

I attended CTU online twice, stupid move on my part. I was enrolled for Cj with a minor in Human services. The first time I attended the school I had to drop out because of "lack of funds". Couldn't understand that considering I hadn't used anything for loans due to being a military spouse. The second time (after I paid the school off) I was told that I would be sent my diploma in the mail, along with the transcripts I was requesting within two weeks of graduation... here I sit 2 years later with nothing. I have called the school and get the same run around each time... I have not completed my classes. I owe the school money, and funny they can't find me in the system but yet I STILL get emails asking me to return.

I am a 2x graduate of Colorado Technical University. I completed my Associates back in 2010. The classes vary. You have some difficult and you have some which are fairly easy. You get out of the programs what you put into it. So please don't expect to register for classes and never crack open a book and turn in assignments when you want to. If you do those things your outcome will not be great. Yes, CTU is rather pricey but I knew that going into the program at the time there wasn't as many choices for online programs as we have today.

I received my assoc. degree in science medical coding and billing, I continue with CTU to get my bach. degree in business (science healthcare information management). My dreams were shut down by a fire to my house, a bad electrical fire. I contact the school cause I came to CTU as a disabled student and they knew it. My house on fire was devastating to me. I lost a lot, and dealing with insurance company and everyone else including the city took 10 months.

I attended CTU about 3 years ago. I knew something was not right when they forced me to sign papers to get student loans. I didn't need to get a loan. My Advisor told me that I head to sign it because if I didn't, I wouldn't be able to attend school as well as telling me that the paper didn't mean I would actually get a loan. It was to educate me about loans. I ended up signing the paper believing what she said. I withdrew out of school after my third semester. A few weeks later I got a letter from the student loan company saying I owe 15,000. I didn't know I had gotten a loan because I was paying for school out of pocket. So now I tried to call the school to fix it, they don't ever answer the phones, I left messages to call me back, and if I do get through, I am on hold for a ridiculous amount of time.

My first 2 classes went well but then the 3rd class went crazy. I dropped the first time then re-enrolled in it the next semester. 3 days into the class we had a paper due so I turned it in and received an F for my effort the next day. That was the first time I received less than an A in my entire college experience. When I contacted the instructor to discuss the grade he started in on how great of guy he was and when he went to school he had to work and go to school at the same time. When I asked about the grade again he said "Hey I'm just doing what the school told me to do." When I asked what that was supposed to mean he said he was just doing as he was told. So hung up and typed up my withdrawal from the class. That was 2 days before the cut-off deadline. The school decided to ignore the email until the day after the deadline and then informed me that I would have to pay for the class anyway.

This schooI is a waste of time and money. I attended school for two years. Was running out of loans. I talked to someone in the school and was told I'd be fine and not owe the school if I quit after the class. At that time I went from owing $74 to now owing $1200 and when I called to ask why it went up, I was told I got kicked out for attendance which is not true. I was told since I owe the school I'd have to pay back $1200 before I could even sign back up. They took all my loans, charged too much for class, and none of it got me to a job just more in debt with no degree. I won't tell my enemies to join this school. I think a class action lawsuit should be started. I see I'm not the only person they did this to.

I don't know where to start! I attended Colorado Technical University back in 2011-2013. In 2013 I was forced to withdraw because I maxed out my government loans. At that point I only had two more classes to take. I tried working out a payment plan with financial aid but I was told that I had a prior balance (which I did not know anything about). I was very confused on how I accumulate a balance. No one reached out to me. I became very frustrated because no one didn't help me or advise me on what I should do. Every private student loan I applied for couldn't approve me because CTU wasn't in network. I called the school and financial aid advise me that I have to apply for a personal loan from a bank or pay out of pocket.

I was half way through my BSIT degree program this September 2016. I noticed that I could not access my ebooks from all of my previous classes in my bookshelf. I only had access to the current class I was in. Technical support told me they were experiencing the same thing on their end and they were escalating the situation. The issue was not resolved. In a previous year a student advisor called local police, who climbed in my mother's home, to see if I committed suicide. I told her that I was with my mother and all she had to do is call my mom to confirm.

I did three years of "traditional school" and my employer paid 22k to finish the last year and a half online. I have also used the CLEP test to pass some classes. I can say that CTU isn't for everyone, but the degree is a good one and of course has opened doors for me. I now have made over 6 figures for over 10 years and the degree certainly has helped. There is software to check against plagiarism and I believe that the school is making strides for improving. Before you get "locked in" to paying the tuition, make sure it is the right fit for you. If an employer offers to pay for your education, I believe CTU is a great way to go.

I attended CTU from October 2014 to May 2016 and graduated with honors with a GPA of 3.67. I applied for a scholarship back in February of 2016 and it was approved for 1,000 of which half applied to my account the end of July and the remainder was to be sent to me September 2016. When calling the school to ask about the funding they advised I will receive the remaining 500.00 in September but to allow 30-45 days. After this time period had passed I contacted the school again and they advised they applied it toward my student loans which I did not request them to do so. I have spoken with dozens of managers and was advised they would be crediting the account back but will then send an email telling me "I'm sorry, there is nothing we can do." These people are crooks and used something I earned and do what they wanted to. This school needs to be investigated.

I attended 8 years ago and with all of the debt is have incurred for 2 degrees they have no job placement assistance for graduates. I am still doing the same job that I was prior to getting this far in debt. The financial aid department is a joke they can't add or subtract. They sent my financial aid loan back to my lender and then said they made an error so I had to take ANOTHER loan out to pay them off. I almost made the mistake of attending for my MBA but I dropped the program. Their instructors are horrible and don't show up for classes at the date/time they choose! I'm mad I let myself get this far in debt it really isn't worth it for what I received in the long run. I'll be working until I'm 78 years old to pay them back.

I was enrolled at CTU in 2014 for my BA in criminal Justice. I was over charged for first I was told there would be no technical fee. A month into the school and here came the 300$ online fee. The funny part about that is I purchased most of my books on Amazon for less than a dollar. Their text books were so outdated. So next the financial aid was being held from me and changing amounts all the time. Higher one would charge for other things so by the time I was able to receive my money it was next to nothing.

They are great at ruining your credit. I left the school a year ago and owed a few hundred that was paid. That was reasonable. I got sent to collections for 350 bucks and no one can explain why. This is after everything was settled ages ago and I got my transcript. They have my number and email. That place only exists to take your money.

Help! I have read many of these postings and will read more. I need info. My email is **. My wife was duped and scammed by CTU. She is very bright but would buy anything a front door vendor is selling. I support her judgment and did not get involved as she filled their coffers for over 5 years. $67,000! The recruiters had no judgment or sound advice as to what she was doing. During the time she was enrolled we were borderline bankrupt and then bankrupt, not a pot to pee in. Somehow they got her the loans, I'm not even sure with her permission, or she even had an idea what the tab was coming to. On top of that, although she has great skills and was (SP) Summa Cum Laude, she was 58 years old.

These teachers do not grade your papers they have the Turnitin Report. And from there that is how they are graded. They give no feedback on your papers the Turnitin does. This is the highest paid university for online schooling. I wish I would of checked into it more. They tell you you have a stipend coming and turn around and they take it. How do all these schools get away with this crap and get paid for it???

I have attended CTU since April 2016, all my loans covered my classes completely for the year in May. By June I applied for additional loans to help with my expenses and only received $300 dollars of that. They even take all of the Pell grant. If all my classes were paid how is it that I only received an additional 300 dollars. Nobody wants to tell me, they say "let's calculate" and I enrolled today. I am not stupid and will be filing a complaint.

God how I wish I had researched this school before I enrolled. I was excited to start college so went with CTU since they were so FAST in getting me enrolled, all that. But, now I see that they do hold stipends. I received a notice in my email in May and June that CTU was receiving funds from my financial aid. I figured I would get a stipend as I am single, disabled and have 3 children with no child support, VERY low income and since CTU received money in January and April, I received stipends each time, I figured one was coming after CTU received theirs. Nope. Now, I'm sitting here after receiving the SAME financial report from CTU, this month that I got in June yet my stipend is said to be $550 (normally they are $1400+). CTU's accounts have been credited with the SAME amounts as before, when my stipends were $1400+ and calling the financial aid department does not one bit of good.

This is by far the worst college I have attended. First of all they are overpriced and have hidden fees that they don't originally disclose such as a $125 technology fee. Secondly if you plan on learning at this school, you need to be prepared to teach yourself. My third issue with this school is that they make you beg for your stipend. They act like they have to pay the money back instead of you. They get mad at you for calling and basically tell you that they are going to take the maximum amount of time because you called. For all of these reasons this is a terrible school which led me to the decision to withdrawal and go back to traditional college.

I attended CTU for my masters in management in 2008. I found the courses to be very beneficial to my career and goals. I especially enjoyed the online chats. They give you an opportunity to interact with your professors and classmates on a weekly basis. I decided to pursue my doctorate and enrolled in Colorado Technical University Doctor of Management program. I am in my second year and again my experience is amazing!! My professors are professionals and highly respected in their fields. I am learning so much. I love the symposiums we are required to attend. They present an opportunity to meet your faculty and staff as well as classmates. I have made many connections and formed friendships through symposium. As a learner it is important to be able to interact with others in the same situation as yourself. And I still love the weekly chats!!

Can I sue these people for the injuries I suffered in 12-26-2015 that are now permanent? I am a vet who is in the extreme advanced stages of a terminal illness. Stress is my number one killer that lead to multiple heart failures. I have the worst case of P.A.D in medical history of the UW Medical Center in Washington state according to the University of Washington. My case way fully studied and I was deemed disabled immediately and was told I may have two years. That was in 2007.

I attended CTU for my masters and the month before graduation I applied for student loans to cover the balance on my account prior to graduation. CTU then collect my 9/11 GI Bill and the student loans. I specifically asked to use only student loans now I no longer have any 9/11 GI Bill to use. The catch here is that CTU then returned my student loans without notifying me. I'm now stuck with a balance of over $1,000 and no way to pay the amount. I was told since I graduated there is nothing they can do.

Financial Aid - Yes, they work their butts off! Admissions - Yes, they work hard! Students - Well, I did. Not sure the other stuff submitted and read in class was for real. My former ground university wouldn't have been giving A's and B's on papers like those... Plus, I submitted some very unlike me, work...when I was stoned out on anti-anxiety pills. Blood pressure and dealing with that type of stress is not a good thing. They don't care if you're financially ruined, filed Chapter 7, or on mood altering moods with a doctor's recommendation you don't pursue this.

Rip-off, not fully accredited. Takes student loan in your name without your permission. Most online instructors never reply to messages and end up with ungraded work causing student to fail, just to try to get more money from retaking classes.

Colorado Technical University uses guerrilla marketing techniques to capture Veterans and exploit them for their GI Bills and the betterment of their FOR PROFIT status. Not only was I duped by a CTU recruiter, being told that my school would be absolutely free and everything would be taken, when in reality I had to use financial aid from the US government plus my GI Bill Awards in order to maintain enrollment, but now they are reporting me to credit bureaus, hindering my ability to obtain the small business loan I need for a semester of school that I never attended.

OK I wrote some reports. Tried to get the teacher. She left no info on site or her work plus the faculty leader just plain ignored me and plus my v.a from hollow brook drive CO which will be nameless. I think she has a lot to do with it as well. Because I think the professors most of them not all have those counselors in their pockets. Preying on vets that don't kiss butt. This school tries to have all commercials. This is why they are devils working there unless you are a good butt kisser. Just saying this school has had bad rep before and they are good for not contacting you unless it's financial or something that regards those certain screwed up teachers it bad as well because most of the white female teachers are racist. I'm done with cap. I really hate this school.

I have been getting the run around from this school. I left CTU in good standing (with no money owed whatsoever) and requested transcripts to be sent to my new school. For some reason the transcripts are on perpetual hold. Although I do not owe the school any money they will not release my transcripts. I have talked to the admissions, accounts, records and registrars offices to no avail. Every person tells me they don't know why the transcripts are on hold and promise to call me back but no one ever does. I can't start at any other school until they release my transcripts which seems like will never happen. 100% unprofessional. I cannot believe this is an accredited university.

I graduated from CTU online in November of 2013 with a Bachelor's degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Human Services. While I went to this school, I was guaranteed a career coach during my schooling and for a short time after I graduated and that never happened. I also believe that they are demanding more money from me and that is why they are withholding my transcripts. I don't understand why I still owe them over $4000 still when all my student loans that I received when I attended this school for 3 years should have paid for it all. I have called the student accounts department, student registrar department and still don't get any answers. I am very upset with this situation. I can't move forward with my education due to the fact that they are holding my transcripts.

Before and shortly after starting the MS in Management/Homeland Security, I was told several times that this program was exactly the same as the one offered by the U.S. Navy and I would be able to work in Emergency Management. This however isn't true and I graduated in 2014.

I am a graduate of CTU online. I graduated in November 2011. I moved to Florida because my husband, after 27 years of being active duty army retired. I am in the process of continuing my education at the university of Florida in Gainsville. I paid to have my transcript sent from CTU. I am being told NOW, I have a hold on my account from a balance due in November 2011. I called the student records department. I was told that the balance of $698.45 is from where I started, which I do not remember, the Bachelor program at CTU online from November 13 to November 27th. I am told because I logged in for 2 weeks out of the 6-week course, that I owe this money. I was told to contact the registrar's office. I called and was told the same thing, that the amount is owed from those 2 weeks in the Bachelor program. He transferred me to the supervisor of advising, for which I was told this same thing.

I've completed my MBA in the year 2012 and had owed $2500 on my last course which I completed. My name was sent to collections, which I had no problem with. I've paid the collecting company based on an agreement we made, based on the reduced cost I was offered. I've already paid and it seems as though CTU plans on keeping my Diploma and Transcripts. Due to the fact my name was sent to collections, two different companies by one purchasing my debt from the other. Shouldn't my name be off of CTU books in regards to my account being sold, not by their collection department, but to another collection agency? Not forgetting that I paid the collection in full based on our agreement by settling for less.

I hate CTU because they took out subsidized and unsubsidized loans out on me and I never requested any loans. Then they haven't even billed the VA for my tuition. What is wrong with this school? It needs to be shut down for life or more VA veterans will be scam.

Attending this school is the worst decision I've made in my life. The school simply sets to up to forever babe in their debt so that you'll never be able to transfer or attend another school. They take your loans and do not apply it towards your classes. Their internal billing system is design to keep you owing them. The government needs to get involved to shut this school down. It's going the eventually affect the U.S. economy as its burdening students with debt as well as depriving them of their education. The modern day Bernie Madoff of the school system.

I have recently had a change of heart. I feel that this college could be a very good college if they would make sure that their educators are providing material that aligns with the required course material. Students are responsible for their choice in degree programs, and with mentioning that, we can all say that teachers are good to steer us in the right direction, but shouldn't be taking the place of student advisors or mentors. Teachers should reflect upon their teaching materials and skills to make sure that students are receiving them in a beneficial manner. I give this school a 4 star rating because I actually did learn from this college, and it is where I have gained a bulk of my knowledge from. My biggest complaint and nobody can ever determine when teachers go rogue but my issue is teachers who aren't consistent, especially if you have had that teacher before. The material covered for the course, problem-solving using java, was covered by a book that covered those materials but the teacher was not using the book for the course?

They are very misleading with the wording of their fast track eligible credits/costs. When it says you are eligible for a certain number of fast track units, that is not what you are allowed to take. Make sure of the exact classes you are allowed before enrolling.
