South University

Having been a professional in the field, it came to my attention that there was an opportunity to elevate my learnings/excellence. I found it in South. It offered me the chance to grow as an NP in the field of geriatrics. The admission process, to the academic counselors, to the clinical adviser to the Financial counselors were all very helpful and ready to help.

Rejoined July 2021 and it's been a NIGHTMARE since. LIED TO ABOUT what I owe, extra charges and changes happen every quarter, professors are not teaching or communicating and it is mostly the male ones I have had. I have had advisors change every couple of months as if they cannot keep help. No one has the answers and when you ask to speak to the hire ups they play stupid as if there are no hire ups. I teach myself through YouTube because the support is not there. UNORGANIZED SCHOOL. DO NOT GO HERE!!! They reel you in for your money and do not care about you at all!

I enrolled in SUO in 2019, this is awesome because I am 50 years old and finally getting a degree. Six months after I was attending class, they added several charges. Now its 2022 and I was told I would graduate in Niv 20022.... Wrong...they now say 2023 Feb. Well ok, now all of a sudden I am out of loans and owe over two thousand dollars to this school, FAFSA says talk to the school fin aid..no help there either. I agree there is something going on because the money does not add up, oh sure they say tuition is cheaper each year but then add extra charges whereas the so-called tuition reduction is bogus.

I have been going to South University for a year after having to start here when Independence University closed. My experience started from subpar and has gradually just become horrible. There is nothing personal about any of the classes and the instructors seem to only be there to post copy and pasted responses and not help with anything if you’re struggling. There are no lectures, only readings, and if you ask for additional explaining after reading the material, they will just refer you back to the reading. There is little to no flexibility with personal life.

I've been attending this school online since 2017 and I have 3 months left of classes before completing my Bachelor’s degree. Yesterday out of nowhere, I get kicked out of my current classes. I have been contacting my advisor (who was changed twice during my attendance here) and for 3 weeks I have not heard from her, I emailed whoever she put to contact on her absence, no one responds, I called, left voicemails to 5 different individuals and sent emails, I get no response, it's been 3 weeks, and now that apparently I've been kicked out and I am no longer a student (according to the site) having 3 months left to finish.

This school is very good on your lower level classes but once you hit your program that’s when the scam begins. I have read the others reviews and it’s a shame that the ones who finished this program are willing to support this robbery. The professor gave us 16 chapters to read and none of info was even on the test. This is just one example. Impossible curriculum to pass. This is not a NP preparing, this is a scam. How long can they run this game. Look at all these dreamers that was hurt by this program. Ow yeah of course they have to have a few years of letting some token students pass just so they can come on these reviews and support this nonsense. If there is any agency that want the truth and can do something about it do a surprise investigation and then that will shut up the token who brag on this scam. End of story.

I attended South for a year and was dismissed out of nowhere. My academic counselor switched twice within that year and then I was told my GPA dropped to a 1.0, but I have held a 4.0 since April at CTU??

I was going to South University for a year and half. I struggled because I moved to another state then I was sick. I picked up and brought my grades and GPA up. Then out of nowhere without warning I was dropped due to my actions last year and beginning of this year. I finally was told why I was dropped. I then was told I could appeal but it may not get approved. So I withdrew and I am starting a different college. One who will appreciate struggles and keep you up to date if things are not going well. I was very upset of how things were handled. I was being punished for something that happened a year ago. It wasn't fair at all.

It started out okay getting signed up but during my first courses it was so confusing just trying to figure out everything (and it did not help that I was a young mother with no actual help from the father, my ex-husband). Needless to say I fell behind and was dropped from the course, no warning. Just went to sign in and my class was gone, so I reached out to my counselor (called and emailed) and it took them forever to get back to me. Then the same thing happened on my next course. I cant entirely blame that on the school. That was just my life at the time and the confusion of how to do everything again. However, I never got re-enrolled because I couldn't get a hold of anyone.

You email your academic counselor and nobody emails you back and then you call his supervisor and nobody calls back. This is a poor organized school. They want to see you fail just to take the class over. Poor communication. The only thing they are worried about is collecting their money. They will call you about that but not about the classes you are taking. I would not recommend this school to anybody.
