Strayer University Reviews

I am in process to file complaint against Strayer University which is nothing but scam. Worthless experience. Left nothing with debt. I have contacted the department of education which directed me to separate departments where I can file a complaint to investigate this so call school. Please contact me as I can provide application to file against this scammer who ever involved providing fake visa to overseas.

I am in tremendous debt from going to Strayer University. They were not upfront and honest about what I would need to pay back. Now my tuition bill is 3 times higher than what I borrowed. That is crazy for a working person to pay back. Strayer needs to be more upfront about the cost. Would not recommend them to anyone due to the cost.

This school is so unorganized, unprofessional and mediocre! I am beyond fed up, I'm going to transfer next term because every term it's an issue within every aspect! If you don't want to be stressed about finances and academics then go elsewhere because the tuition is honestly overpriced and not worth it! Lazy staff and rude representatives!

I just graduated from Ultimate medical Academy with my certificate as a MA & my associate degree in health science. Never had any issues and I graduated almost 3 yrs ago. They still call me to make sure I have employment and it's genuine. I decided to continue my education by getting my bachelor's so I applied to Strayer. I spoke to so many different people I can't tell you who my career advisor is. I was assured that all my courses would be covered via my financial aid. The admin lady asked if I wanted to take two or three course and I affirmed that I wanted to take only what my aid would cover. She assured me of that.

This for-profit school is expensive, and the quality of education is poor. I graduated with a degree in Information Systems with a concentration in Web Development. When I began taking the Web Development courses, I found that they were taught using an application program called Microsoft Expression that did the coding for you. Here I am 11 years later with $100k in student debt and do not have a job in Web Development because no one wants to hire someone who doesn't know how to code websites.

I went to Strayer University and had three classes left and got hurt. I lost use of my right hand I was in physical therapy for 6 weeks. From the emergency room I submitted all documents and weekly was in touch with university. I was given a withdraw approval and out for one semester. When I went to go back they said I had to pay for the semester I withdrew. Lucky for me I kept all of my documentation and communication with the University. However they would not allow me to enroll in the current semester until this issue was resolved. In the middle of the semester they said that I was in fact correct and it had been waived.

Strayer University's MBA program has provided me with a solid foundation in business principles and management skills. While the university is well-known for its flexible learning options and accommodating approach for working adults, the overall notability and value of the degree can sometimes be seen as less competitive compared to other traditional or highly-ranked institutions. However, the practical knowledge and applied learning experiences have been beneficial in my career, despite the perceived lower prestige.

I have 2 degrees from Strayer and have earned 0.00 dollars in the marketplace. Don't waste your time like I did. I'm currently filing a complaint with the Department of Education and with my congressman. Of course the school is run by **.

So all the way to the first day of the semester there were issues with obtaining my transcripts. So they dropped me. The day the semester started they enrolled me. All the while I couldn't get any info on my financial aid. They couldn't tell me until they had my transcripts and I was officially enrolled. So the third day I finally get to see they had screwed me over majorly. No wonder they wouldn't show me my Pell Grant, my subsidized, or unsubsidized loans. I dropped Strayer at 1am immediately after I read that email. The promissory form I signed showed that the entire course would be covered... Lies... Let's fast forward to today. I get an email saying I owe them $300. They are trying to charge me a 10% fee for never attended the semester. They tried to hold my Pell Grant so I couldn't attend anywhere else. I've not looked to see if they received my Pell after dropping them before classes started. I'll come back to update as it plays out.

Horrible school. Don't waste your time, find another online school. They will give you the run around and you can't walk in or speak with anyone in person. I advice would be to enroll in a local University.
