Just some thoughts
August 17, 2011
Just observations, not complaints. It would appear that AMU has set itself up as the defacto university for the Military. The costs are very affordable, there are many policies in place that support a service lifestyle and all that entails. In that respect AMU is very good. Shortly into my degree, I noticed that despite the words, some of the instructors aren't that engaged. This maybe due to them holding down day jobs and working ...

Current Student

I am currently enrolled in AMU in there B.A. in History degree. I have attended a "Brick and Mortar" college in the past. Keeping those points short, I can continue to my current experience with this University. I have had a couple of problems with AMU, none too dissimilar from those who posted negative comments here. I have taken 5 classes and withdrew from my 6th course. Within the first five courses there were a ...

While I agree with the one review of '5th grade' level education from a conceptual point, I disagree with his overall review. The faculty do not have the pleasure of adjusting their syllabus, therefor the responsibility to adjust workload/tests/etc falls on the curriculum developers. He is right in regards to the tests, and I laughed at the comments about discussion boards because I can relate. I also agree that a placement exam MUST be instituted ...

It’s true! AMU is not entirely a diploma mill.
August 23, 2009
At first I thought the complainers here were just idiots who couldn’t follow the school’s policies and procedures. But after completing 6 classes I began to realize how overrated the education really is at AMU. The instructors provided simple, cookie-cutter questions that any average 5th grader could answer. Of the 15 books that were assigned for my classes, I never cracked one open and yet I received an ‘A’ in 5 of my classes. The ...

Great School
March 19, 2009
This school is great. I took classes well deployed to OIF and they were both outstanding. The instructors are great and very understanding to the military lifestyle. Also, if you go on thier website and read the instructor's credentials, they are on par with any brick and mortar university and many are proffesors at other top schools. The system is user friendly and forces you to learn. No class is easy, and I always learn. ...

Great Experience
January 3, 2009
I strongly recomend AMU. I have had nothing but positive experiences there. I cannot speak to the finance department as some others have complained about here, but for military students there is no better bet. AMU has been helpful with any situation I have had come up and the classes put forth some great knowledge I am happy to have. When I signed up for a sociology class toward the begining of my degree I ...

AMU is also APU. The two schools fall under APUS. The school has the same standards I was getting in a "brick and mortar school" I have to write all lot. I write in the discussion boards, I write papers, and I write some more. I do all lot of reading and researching. The school has very strict policy on plagiarism and cheating. The Staff and Instructors are understanding. The key is to communicate with them. The school is not just designed for military students. It's for everyone. The APU is there for people who do not want to have military on their diploma. If you are military, the schools knows how to deal with your respective branch of service. The cost of the school compared to UoP is cheap. $250.00 per a credit for undergraduates. If you use TA from the military, the class is free. The books are included with the class. If you are planning to go to a program like ROTC, this school is not the school to go to. They do not have any deals with any local schools like UoP. I picked this program because I am deploying, I am a history major, and the price is right. If I did not have to deploy, I would join a regular school so I could join ROTC.

I have been a been an AMU student for almost two years now.  AMU is no joke!  The Professor's demand a good product!  I have been in the Navy for over 20 years and have experienced a lot of different colleges along the way but AMU has been the best experience that I have had.  I would recommend them to my Sailors and you cannot argue with 100% college participation within your division!
