Amberton University Reviews:
Professional counseling
November 18, 2009
Amberton has a wonderful and caring faculty. They do challenge the students to reflect and think. This is great. I have almost completed the professional counseling program. It has been a great experience in many ways.
Master of Arts Professional Development
May 7, 2009
This was a very rewarding learning experience. The Professors challenge you in every facet of your degree program. The support staff are very helpful and friendly and Dwayne Black at the book store is awsome! I completed my program while residing in Japan, Oklahoma and Germany. I attended the commencement ...
A VALUABLE RESOURCE
November 10, 2008
I found Amberton University when I had to leave the program at a bricks and mortar program in a neighboring city so that I might spend more time with my aging, infirmed mother. It was truly a God send. The courses were challenging, but the instructors extremely accessible and fair. ...

I completed both my undergraduate and graduate work at AU. The experience at AU was rewarding and a life changing event.
I am waiting for the university to develop a doctoral program.
If this does not happens, I will eventually return for a second Master's Degree for the educational experience.
The professors at AU are extremely knowledgable and talented. Each one has their special ability in challenging the student's intellectual prowess.

Last year I earned my MBA in Strategic Leadership at Amberton. I only have great things to say about the program. It was extremely challanging and rewarding. The professors were outstanding, and provided great feedback. I would choose Amberton again; and suggest anyone looking for a online fully accredited degree that is both challanging and rewarding give this university a look. If they ever offer a Ph.D or D.B.A. online, I will be back in class. Word of advise, if you think this univerity is going to be a pathway to an easy degree, do yourself a favor and apply elsewhere, I found it more challenging than the on-gound classrooms...but like I said, I would do in over again in a second...

I am two classes away from completing my MBA in Strategic Leadership and I agree with everything that has been posted so far. I have done my coursework completely online and have been working hard over the past few years to complete my degree -- 1 or 2 classes per term. The profs are wonderful, the workload is rigorous, yet manageable. I agree with the others. If Amberton ever adds doctoral programs, I will be back in a heartbeat. I have a bachelor's degree and a master's degree -- both earned 'on-ground' at large state universities. I worked as hard, if not harder, on my Amberton MBA than I did on either of the other degrees -- but it was worth it!

Amberton University is a wonderful institution offering rigorous curriculum, and phenomenal faculty and staff. I recently completed my Masters in Human Relations and Business in May 2007 and found my program both gratifying and rewarding. Every step of the way I received great support and guidance from my professors and was challenged by interesting, relevant courses. As previous reviewers have noted, Amberton’s availability online complements its on ground courses and in no way detracts from the quality or robustness of its programs; it simply offers greater accessibility and convenience to the working adults it serves. With undergraduate and graduate tuition at $225.00 per credit hour, it also makes good financial sense to consider Amberton for graduate level study. I also hope doctoral level programs will be introduced at Amberton one day – if so, I will be the first to enroll!

I just obtained my Master of Science degree in Human Relations and Business from Amberton University. It was a dream come true. The professors were great. They have the true concept of working adults and professionals at heart. Thank you so much Amberton for being an outstanding University. You have been much more than a blessing, they were even affordable.

I can't say much more than has already been said. I earned my M.A. in Professional Development in 2005 from Amberton. The program was very challenging and interesting. I took the courses online and I worked harder and learned more than my state university B.S. It is sometimes difficult to explain to others how much quality Amberton packs into a degree. They think it might be easy because Amberton is small/ some online. I tell them to take a class and then come back to me with their opinion.
Amberton A + all the way around

I recently completed a Master in Human Relations and Business and was very satisfied with the university. I got timely, meaningful and extensive feedback and the format of the program was perfectly suited to my needs as a working professional. I can highly recommend Amberton. They provide a quality education for a very reasonable fee.

I completed a Masters in Human Resources Training & Development in 2005. Amberton University was truly the most challenging and rewarding educational experience I have ever had.

I have to say that I am very happy I’ve made the decision to take an MBA in Strategic Leadership at Amberton. My experience at AU is wonderful, the professors are great and the advisors are amazing. Each time I talked to one of them, I learned something new about how students should be treated. I am glad I graduated from this school.
Even though I don’t have now any plans to pursue a PHD degree, but if they ever offer it online, I won’t think twice about taking it.
Thank you AU…

This is a really great school and the first best choice outside of the more expensive universities here in Texas. Very challenging materials with cutting-edge info. I'm still several hours away from a Bachelor's in Business Administration & Information Systems, but well on my way. The instructors I've had are excellent. I visited the campus and it's very serious about it's students and the students take the university very seriously. You won't regret being apart of Amberton. The Tuition is very affordable and on point for working adults.

I was very pleased with my learning experience at Amberton University. I completed my Masters of Arts/Professional Development...Not only is it an afforable school, it is also an institute that challenges you in every facet in terms of your degree program. If I had it to do all over again I would. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. I attended the commencement ceremony (I traveled from Germany) and it too was a very rewarding experience.

I just completed a Master of Arts in Professional Development at Amberton University. My experience was very rewarding. If you receive a degree from Amberton University, you are going to have to work for it. The course work was rigorous; however, the professors that I studied under were very helpful. This is a no nonsense school. The people who attend Amberton are very serious about their education. I highly recommend this school to anyone who is seeking to further their education.

How long are the online classes?
Geralyn October 14, 2009 at 10:19 a.m.
Hi Monique,
I am not sure whether someone has answered your question or whether you found the answer, but both online and campus classes are 8 or 10 weeks I believe depending on which semester. I must say so far so good with this university. I have not been disappointed yet and I am very happy with my decision to attend this university for my Master's. The work is challenging and the value of the courses are very worth it. Hope my response helps you with your decision.

I attended Amberton University from 2005 - 2007, and received my M.A. in Counseling. I really enjoyed my experience at Amberton. The Instructors were very experienced in their fields and very supportive of the students. The cirriculum was rigorus and rewarding. The tuition was affordable and a value for the money.
I only wish they offered a doctorate degree, so I could continue my education with Amberton University.

My experience at Amberton was wonderful. I completed my degree online and though it was tough I would do it all over again. The instructors are great and really challenge you. Don't think that you can do an online program and have it easy, there is a ton of reading and writing that you will have to do.
If you don't have the time nor patience to sit in a traditional class, this is an awesome program.
