AIU MBA opinion
So, I have been with AIU for a while now. Actually I have done all of my schooling through them and have been working on my MBA with them. I chose AIU because it was prety much the fastest track to a degree as possible. I didn't shoose the degree because of its prestigious reputation. I just wanted to get a college degree just so I could have one...that probably doesn't make sense to most of you but that's how I am.
My experiences have been a toss up. I enjoyed the undergrad program. It was interesting. The teachers are hit or miss, some are helpful and others are a complete waste of time. I suppose you will get that from any school. I like the flexibility of the school, I don't have to attend class on any particular day and can do all of my work on the weekend.
I graduated with a pretty good GPA, a 3.90. I worked for that GPA, but not everyone does. I notice that a lot of people do not give forth their absolute effort and use their full potential. I only wish that i could find out how the others are being graded. I worked hard for my grades, but I know that this school will pretty much pass anybody if you put your name on a piece of paper.
I really do not like the school administration. The school has not been helpful when I have needed them. There have been a few times that I have deployed or moved and I needed time off to take care of things and they gave me a really hard time. The staff is never attentive to your needs and you have to call them back, because they won't call you back. It seems that I have had a different student advisor about every three months for some reason. I'm not too sure why, but I do not like it. Whenever you have a problem you deal with a new stranger. I did have one really good student advisor but that was a while back and she is no longer my advisor.
One thing that I really like about the school is that they do your schedule for you. You don't have to worry about registering for schools, and the books have always come in the mail on time.
As far as value goes, I don't pay for the program so it doesn't apply to me that much. But, if I had to pay for it out of my own pocket I would definitely not go to school here. It just isn't worth it. You can get better programs from schools that are accredited for less money. When it comes down to it, this is a for-profit school. They are looking to make money off of you....and god do they give it to you with the sticker price.
