After 157 emails and empty promises of resolution, I have to drop out. I have ID verified 17 times through the link, sent a copy of my license, and Video verified 47 calls, daily chats, and multiple forms. All for them to finally recognize that there's a glitch. They supposedly sent a ticket for the 6th time to solve this matter. Nothing! No estimate of when the matter will be resolved. But... I will be responsible for the debt if they don't solve it by May 2nd. All of this in a matter of 1 1/2 months.

I have been with the university since 2019 and I must say I loved it up until they changed How they issued out financial aid funding. I have had nothing but issues with on time payouts. Scared to finish or start a class because it takes so long for the funds to be released to pay for the classes.

The professors were all friendly and helpful. Coursework was informative and I feel that I've gained a lot from the Social Work B.S. program. However fieldwork was a nightmare. The process to get approved for fieldwork made me want to quit college and give up. Very unorganized. The list of approved places to do fieldwork in my area had only one organization, and when I called they did not have a qualified person with the very specific degree requirements for supervision. Would absolutely not recommend any Bachelors program to include fieldwork with this university. Many outreach attempts to get supervised were surprised to hear I'm required to do fieldwork at the bachelor's level and only offer to Masters level students. Hoping this gets removed for future students and their journey to success.

I am currently working on a Bachelor's in Business Management with already having an Associate's Degree in Business Management and well my last course I had a horrible unexpected event happen. I lost a very close relative and I immediately let my instructor and the school know about what I was going through and well basically asked for some extra time for an assignment that was due when my family member passed and not only did I do the assignment and turn it in late because I was grieving and dealing with family issues at the time I messaged my instructor through this entire event who told me that if I did the assignment she would even waive the late points.
And then weeks later when I was expecting my grade to go up from turning in that assignment I was shocked to see the complete opposite and when I reached out to my instructor asking why she told me some bs about after 4 days late and the university's standards for late items and said that she wasn't going to give me any credit for it because I didn't contact her prior to this and let her know and I did contact her from the moment I found out about my uncle's passing and had the proof right there in the messages between us. She still wouldn't accept it or even show me any kindness or remorse for my situation and she even misspelled my first name.
I contacted the school about it and they said they filed a grievence and made a ticket about my sitiation but it did absolutley nothing. She failed me because of that assignment that mind you I did actually do and turn in and because of that it messed up my finacial aid so bad that now for the next 2 months I have to pay outta pocket for my courses until May and I'm a struggling single mother of two. It messed with me so badly that I wanted to give up on my schooling completely because of what she did and I still think it's completly wrong and should be handled better but I also knew that at the end of my degree if I wanted to get rid of one of my courses that was affecting my gpa that I could ask for a revamp or something like that and they would remove that bad graded course.
But when I tried speaking to an acidemic advisor at the university she told me that I didn't have that option and even if I did my financial aid situation would still be the same and I would still have to cover the cost myself and to me that's not my idea of helping your students especially those actually trying and who have had a death in the family the university should try harder to help and the instructor should of been more linient considering the situation and the fact I messaged her as soon as it all went down.

I was initially very nervous about the challenges of going back to school after being away for a while, but choosing the University of Phoenix has truly been the best decision I’ve made for my personal and professional growth.

I have had a mostly great experience with the University of Phoenix so far, especially academic support staff and the finance office. However, the professors and classroom materials I find to be very inconsistent. Some professors are amazing, though I've had an experience with one responding extremely rudely when I asked for feedback and clarification on an assignment. Additionally, some of the textbooks are great reference materials, while others I suspect, are written by AI or have a weird amount of references to the bible for a program on public administration.

I love UOPX and I am so grateful for them. I genuinely felt supported in every way, and everything was so career focused. Being able to use my lived experience of addiction recovery, parenting experience, Sophia Learning, and CEUs I obtained when getting my state credentials, towards my degree was amazing. I recommend UOPX to everyone. The learning platform is easy to navigate, 1 class every 5 weeks made things not so daunting, and having the support from administration was incredible. I went through a lot while I was in UOPX. In February 2021, I had moved into my first apartment after being in an addiction to heroin that tried to kill me. That August I was awarded full custody of my daughter, and in October of 21 I started my UOPX journey.
While enrolled I learned to parent, worked full-time, grew my state credentials to be a substance abuse counselor, assisted with a women’s home for recovering addicts, bought a home, got married, sold the home and bought another, had my son, and I was still able to graduate on time. I give all the glory to God without a doubt and I thank Him for the University of Phoenix and the help and support they provided me. When I needed breaks, which I did, UOPX was with me every step of the way and I still got to graduation on schedule.
When I was in rehab, I was walking across the parking lot and reached into my pocket for my Chapstick. I always keep chapstick. When I pulled it out and went to use it, it was empty. I thought to myself “man, my chapstick is out. I finished it.” In that same moment I felt the Lord speak to me and say “Girl. You had never even finished a tube of chapstick, before you met Me.” And now here I proudly and graciously stand with my bachelor's degree as well. I am currently in an MSW program with another university, and I am forever grateful for the University of Phoenix and how prepared I feel for my field and how it made school less intimidating. I could go on and on with all the great things. Most importantly I want to say thank you for everything and may God bless you abundantly. Thank you!!!! #PhoenixFlyHigh

I was excited to join the university when I first heard about it on an ad, since starting I’ve found that as a 4.0 GPA student I take more LOA’s than running courses because of financial cost. My graduation date has been pushed back twice so far for this reason, I have FAFSA Pell Grants and use my check or tax return for the out of pocket cost for courses. This doesn’t seem to be enough if I’m only able to run 1-5 courses before paying again, I’m either told 3 random numbers over what I see on my financial side or it’s being applied to previous courses over the one that’s needed to continue on. Even through the financial hardship I’m still maintaining a 4.0 during or just returning from an absence.
I’m noticed for awards and the fact that I still have a 4.0, but that’s not enough if courses need paid. As a single mother with a child on bi-monthly income handing 1.3k out of a check is impossible without a loan or taxes, let alone a payment of $439. Even a payment plan still wouldn’t start the course without a loa, so there really isn’t a win-win situation for a 4.0 student having other expenses for housing, a child, basic necessities on top of school payments that are needed to continue courses.

I have had a wonderful experience in 10 of my 11 classes in this program. I had great professors who helped me to learn so much and overcome my fear of accounting and analysis. My last class STR 581 has been the worst experience of all. Sadly as my last class I was hoping to learn a lot to take into my business world and it didn't happen. William ** is not like the other professors, I had to work with my academic advisor for support and I requested to speak with his supervisor/manager/director which never happened. Frustration throughout the entire course. I made the Dean's List, inducted into NSLS in the fall, and was looking forward to hopefully graduating with distinction which isn't happening.
From week 2 I asked for support, clarification, and details and repeatedly got sent instructions from the rubric and assignment which I have ALWAYS read several times, for ALL classes. No clarification or support was provided. Whoever receives this survey please put me in contact with the Director of the program. Feel free to review my course messages and assignments. I have been successful with every other professor and don't understand why William is unable to provide valuable help and support when I needed it. I had planned to fly to Arizona from Hawaii to attend my graduation on March 7, was very proud of my accomplishments and in week 3 of this class decided not to. The frustration made me disappointed in myself, at times made me feel dumb with no support and clarification, and sadly I lost all motivation to finish hard and end my program proudly.

I am submitting this letter as a formal complaint regarding my enrollment experience at the University of Phoenix and the significant financial harm it has caused. At the time of my initial enrollment, I clearly explained my educational goals and the specific degree program I intended to pursue. Despite this, the representative I worked with enrolled me in an incorrect program that did not align with my stated objectives. After discovering this issue, I contacted the university and spoke with another representative who assured me that the situation had been corrected. Unfortunately, no such correction was made. As a direct result of these failures, I am now facing substantial debt for an associate’s degree that I never intended to pursue. This has created a serious and unexpected financial burden, entirely due to inaccurate advising and lack of follow-through by university representatives.
When I contacted the university again to address this ongoing issue, I was advised to change my program once more. This does not resolve the underlying problem and instead places me at risk of incurring additional debt for coursework I did not plan to take. I find this response unacceptable, as it does not address the original enrollment error or its financial consequences. This experience has been extremely frustrating and has caused significant stress. It is far below the standard of service and professionalism I expected from the University of Phoenix. I relied on the guidance provided by university representatives in good faith, and that reliance has resulted in serious financial repercussions.
I am requesting a formal review of my enrollment history, advising records, and financial obligations, along with a resolution that does not further penalize me for errors that were not my responsibility. I expect this matter to be handled promptly and fairly. Thank you for your attention. I look forward to your response and a meaningful resolution.

University of Phoenix uses a "one size fits all" approach to education and that just isn't realistic. The tuition is expensive due to it being a private institution but they constantly charge you fees and claim your funding didn't cover the full cost of class and force you on a payment plan in order to remain in class. When inquiring about where the financial aid funds were applied they act like they're doing you a favor by saying they "waived" the fees just for you to get another bill/statement saying you owe a higher balance all while never showing you where the funds went.
The professors are well versed in their professions and I've never really had an issue in class. You're not able to chose your classes. You take whatever courses are on the track for your degree program and there aren't any options for you to take an array of courses if you're indecisive about your major. The academic advisors are glorified call center workers who do not have the knowledge necessary to advise someone academically. Seems like they read from a script. Overall I wouldn't advise going here if you have other options. I will say the one day a week course that still qualifies you as a full time student was the draw for enrollment.

My educational experience at UOP was pretty good. I enjoyed the structure of class. All of my instructors and even phone representatives were great. No matter what I contacted UOP for, majority of what I needed support for it was there. Now, UOP needs to do something about the cost/tuition. We’re finishing with degrees and in debt for the rest of our lives. I wish I had known or been given more information about the cost. That’s my only issue, no one went deep enough nor spent enough time talking about the cost and things that you could expect to have repay.

I love this school. It's convenient for my schedule and the instructor's and the way it's set up is perfect for me. Honestly, attending UOP has been a really positive experience for me. The flexibility alone has made such a big difference—being able to balance school, work, and everyday life without feeling overwhelmed has kept me motivated and on track.
One thing I've really enjoyed is how supportive the instructors are. Most of them come from real careers in the fields they teach, so they break things down in ways that actually make sense in the real world. If I ever have a question or get stuck on something, they respond quickly and actually try to help, which I truly appreciate.
The online platform has also been super easy to use. I never feel lost trying to figure out where assignments or resources are. And speaking of resources, the library tools, writing help, and tutoring options have all been huge for me when I need extra support. Of course, no school is perfect, but overall, I've had a great experience and feel like I'm really growing—not just academically, but personally too. I'm learning skills I can use right away in my career, and I feel proud of the progress I've made. I just wanted to share my perspective in case it helps someone else who's thinking about enrolling. Thanks again for starting the conversation—I always think it's helpful when we can talk openly about our experiences.

Enrolling in the Master of Science in Education program at the University of Phoenix has undoubtedly been one of my most important growing experiences, both professionally and personally. I was nervous about balancing coursework with work and family responsibilities as an adult; however, the flexible online structure made it possible. The benefit of the program that stood out the most was the nurturing learning environment.

Weekly dialogues created an opportunity for collaboration and critical thinking, in which I learned from peers with varied teaching and leadership experiences.
The program represented an interplay between practical and theoretical approaches to topics like instructional design, educational leadership, and data-driven decision-making. Each assignment contained a practical aspect that I could instantly connect to a real-life classroom or administrative challenge. There was a strong emphasis on reflection, ethics, and leadership at the University of Phoenix, thereby enhancing my growth as an educator and as a person. The program endowed me with refined communication skills, confidence in instructional planning, and a reinvigorated passion for helping others learn.

I'm a bit frustrated! The current Doctor of Health Administration (DHA) program structure does not prepare students for the dissertation phase in DOC/715. During the first seven courses, instructors repeatedly deferred dissertation-related questions with responses such as, “Don’t worry—your Chair will help you in DOC/715,” or, “That’s not my job in this class.”
Students developed problem statements and purpose statements with limited feedback or confirmation of alignment. When students begin DOC/715, many must completely rewrite their work to satisfy Chair expectations. The gap between coursework and dissertation preparation reveals an absence of continuity. The lack of structured guidance undermines confidence, creates redundancy, and generates unnecessary stress when students discover that previous efforts did not advance dissertation readiness for DOC/715. The University of Phoenix must realign the early course sequence so each course contributes measurable progress toward dissertation completion.
Faculty engagement and feedback vary widely and fail to meet institutional policy standards. In several courses, grading and feedback occurred weeks late, and instructor interaction consisted only of weekly announcements without meaningful discussion. Faculty behavior of this kind contradicts the University of Phoenix Faculty Handbook (2024) and the Academic Policy Manual (2024), which require timely, constructive feedback and active participation.
Inconsistent engagement prevents doctoral learners from identifying weaknesses in understanding and developing the analytical and methodological skills necessary for doctoral-level research. Lack of dependable guidance transforms the learning environment into a reactive process rather than a developmental one. University leadership must reinforce faculty accountability to ensure consistency in engagement, grading, and communication practices that align with institutional standards.
Delayed assignment of dissertation Chairs further disrupts academic progress and continuity. The University of Phoenix assigns Chairs at the beginning of DOC/715, leaving students to navigate the earlier courses without consistent mentorship. Once a Chair is assigned, students often face extensive rewrites and methodological corrections. The delay contradicts the mentoring model central to doctoral education. Assigning Chairs by the second or third course would establish early oversight, promote alignment, and reduce inefficiency. Earlier mentorship would also strengthen student preparedness, confidence, and timely advancement toward dissertation milestones.
The current DHA design disregards the realities of adult learners who balance demanding professional, academic, and personal obligations. Most DHA candidates are senior-level professionals managing leadership roles and family responsibilities. Repetitive coursework that fails to advance dissertation development creates frustration and disengagement. The absence of an adult-learning approach conflicts with the University’s stated mission of supporting working professionals. A doctoral program intended for experienced leaders must emphasize efficiency, continuity, and respect for time investment. Realigned course sequencing and earlier Chair assignment would demonstrate institutional respect for the professional commitments of doctoral students.
Structural reform is necessary to restore academic integrity, student trust, and program credibility within the College of Doctoral Studies. Inconsistent feedback, delayed mentoring, course misalignment, and weak accountability standards have eroded confidence in the program’s academic rigor. Addressing those systemic deficiencies requires intentional leadership intervention, not isolated adjustments. Standardized faculty engagement, alignment of coursework with dissertation deliverables, and earlier assignment of Chairs would improve continuity and reinforce the University’s commitment to doctoral excellence.
At the eighth course in the program, I plan to complete the DHA degree because of the personal and professional investment already made. However, the process remains unnecessarily frustrating. After several classes of coursework, effort, and tuition payments, doctoral students should not reach DOC/715 feeling as though they are starting over—frustrated, stressed, overwhelmed, and anxious about academic progress and readiness for dissertation work. Program inefficiencies, lack of continuity, and disregard for the realities of working doctoral students have created unnecessary obstacles that erode confidence, waste valuable time, and diminish the value of the degree.
The delayed assignment of Chairs and University Research Methodologists prevents students from beginning the dissertation phase with clear direction and continuity. Assigning students to their Chair and University Research Methodologist by the second or third course would be more effective and efficient, providing a smoother transition into DOC/715 and adding measurable value for students, faculty, and the University as a whole.
My frustration stems not only from the program’s inefficiency but from the preventable nature of the structural deficiencies that continue to impede student progress. The Doctor of Health Administration program should challenge students intellectually, not drain them emotionally. After seven successful courses, the structural delays and misalignment of support have created unnecessary stress and frustration—and those institutional shortcomings are exactly why I am so frustrated.

The University of Phoenix, AZ is a great and diverse learning experience for many people like myself. I love attending the school because it gives you so much hope and encouragement to look forward to. I was scared to go back to school after 16 years of not being in school, it kind of put fear in me to even want to give it another try. After I talked with Nicole **, my enrollment representative, she made me feel like I could accomplish my dreams and/or goals if I just gave it a try, so I did and I'm glad that I took that first step of getting enrolled and now I feel pretty confident in my assignments and tasks on getting them submitted and/or completed.

As a straight A student it's disheartening to feel unsupported. My area has a wifi outage and I have assignments due. I reached out after being ignored by my instructor and I was offered no solutions besides "go to Starbucks." I'm considering withdrawing from this school all together.

I have taken 3 courses this far and I feel like these classes don’t align with the degree that I am working towards. I feel like the classes I am currently taking are just fluff classes to extend my time in school. Which to this point, I am very unsatisfied with my experience this far. I only want to take whatever core courses I need to obtain my degree and not courses that just prolong my graduation.

I've been nothing but impressed with everything and everyone at the University of Phoenix. I'm so glad I chose you - I was hesitant and now that I'm in the final stretch, I'm very grateful for the program. It's flexible, easy to navigate, and the professors are top-notch. They took time at the beginning to execute a proper onboarding that made sure I knew what I was doing with the technology. I can't think of one thing negative to say - thank you again for everything as I finalize my MSN Program in the next few months.

When I first join University of Phoenix I felt like this was the online school I felt like this was the school that was well kept together. At first I had some real good academics counselors. Well I thought they were good until I found out later I could not trust none of them when it came to my academics. I was very happy when I started here. Now all I wanna do is leave. Academic department is very not kept together and will mess up your schedule to ruin your financial aid if you do not stay on top of them. I have not heard from my Counselor listed on my portal since I been in online school. All I know is her name. I really rate this school as the worst and I can not wait to be transferred to a better school that will at least be honest with me and keep me afloat with things.

I greatly appreciated the flexibility and instructional material and the self paced time that this course afforded to me. I would however, recommend that there be a quicker response time from the feedback given by instructional staff. There were several classes where I had to wait for instructional review and feedback on projects to the point where I was almost unable to apply the feedback provided for the next assignment. I would also recommend over communicating with the Leading and Staffing professor on a routine basis. My experience was that there were unclear expectations that did not align with the grading rubric for the class. I would say the vast majority of the curriculum was well presented and that it was very applicable even for someone who had not prior training and or experience in the field of business.

I have received a number of phone calls regarding my first week of class from multiple people. Yolanda, Monica, Daniel, and Maureen. I get calls when I'm at work and in meetings, which can be extremely distracting and disruptive. It feels like overkill to receive so many phone calls regarding my first week. This feels like poor communication amongst the team. An example of this: I scheduled a call with Maureen 09/12 at 5 pm, and received a call at 2:49 PM yesterday, 09/10, which I'm not sure what this was regarding. I feel like a note should have been taken that I was reached. I do feel like UOPX has good resources that point me in the right direction when I have questions. I take online courses because I have an extremely busy schedule. This feels like I owe creditors money. These are the calls I have recently received:

As someone who went to two days worth of work at this scam University is not worth it. They trying to charge me almost 600 bucks for a class in which I did two things, one discussion post and one quiz. Both had nothing to do with the class of actually about. One of the textbooks was the same textbook that I used for my bachelor's degree in like the first semester, and they were all open source, which is great if you're getting quality school work but there really wasn't any.
If anyone signs up for this University and is thinking about dropping out, I would highly suggest not doing any work for that week until the last minute to make sure that it's something that you do want to keep doing, because otherwise, they're going to charge you a ridiculous amount of money. This is coming from someone who applied, went to two classes, and then dropped out the same week. Biggest mistake ever, I have made a complaint with the Better Business Bureau, but I don't expect much, also they're not even accredited with the Better Business Bureau, which to me is kind of a red flag.
In addition to this, they advertise a flexible class schedule, and when I attempted to go from one class to two, they did not give me a straight answer on how that would work, told me that it might not be possible, and told me I had to wait until the end of the second class. I believe this was an attempt to prevent me from dropping out if I found out after two classes that I would have to continue taking one class at a time, thereby allowing them to charge me for two full classes, which I consider dishonest.

This school is extremely difficult when it comes to the financial aid process. I won’t complain about the classes because that’s the only thing I like. Their classes are setup on a way that easy to manage but when it comes to the financial aid process they have lots of excuses as to why it’s taking long to process even though they have already received funding. It’s such a long wait time and their financial aid portal always have processing delays. It’s though going to school full time plus needing your money for expenses but having to wait 4-5 weeks for your excess funds plus the classes are so expensive. I am at the point to withdraw and finish my degree elsewhere.
