AMU-Online vs. Traditional
August 17, 2009
I have read the reviews of some of the people who say that AMU gives out degrees. That the classes are easy. That most students graduate with a 4.0. Well, those people have not done their research. Online studies are different than traditional class rooms. The mode and method of study is completely different. They both have value but I would say (my own opinion) that online course have more value. The reason is I ...
AMU
June 29, 2009
I am currently attending AMU persuing a BA in Human Resources Management. Overall, AMU is a very good school. It is convenient and I am able to log-in to my classrooms at anytime. Some 'online' classes requires the student to logg on during a specified time/date, but AMU is all at your own time. It is really good. The only feedback I have is that I wish the school would actually mail a hardcopy of ...
UOP VS AMU
May 29, 2009
I actually transferred to AMU from the University of Phoenix in Sept 2008. My experience has been different from UOP. First, I must admit that at UOP I never read my books I just read enough to complete the assignments. There were discussion questions, shorts papers, and power point presentations and that was it. I passed every class with an A, which was about 16 classes. Now imagine passing a class without reading and completely ...
American Military University
April 8, 2009
I found the classes at AMU to be of a very high quality with degrees in many unusual fields. I have found my classes in Military History to be challenging. My Professors have been of a high quality which I did not find in the regular University I attended before. They had real life experience in the subjects they taught and seemed very interested in the subject matter. The one thing that I have had ...
AMU gave me the best education, not easy!
April 7, 2009
I have tried other online colleges (Ashworth College) and they just didn't have what American Military University does. Professors that work in the field of your study. Courses that are in your career field or potential career field. The curriculum was top notch. Can't say that it was easy, online learning is not for everyone. It takes motivation and discipline, something not everyone has. Reading, research and writing! Lots of all three. But if you ...
The easiest 4 year degree you'll find
March 30, 2009
Current student here. I've taken 7 courses with AMU. If you want a degree fast, aren't very smart, or don't want to really try, AMU is for you. The classes are easy. The required involvement is minimal. The instructors regularly "phone it in". If you are looking for an education with some value, try a community college and then transfer to a real university. If you just want a piece of paper, buy one with ...
Can't complain
December 10, 2008
I am in my third class with Capella and everything has been absolutely smooth from the advisors, counselors, and financial depatrtmnent helping me along to the actual classroom experience. This is my first online college experience. It does take a lot of time as I expected, but the great part is that I can do it at my own pace and not totally have to be away from my family. I am a mother of ...

I looked at all the on-line schools very closely before committing my limited financial resources to any educational program.
What I liked was from the start was the complete disclosure of the program minus the high pressure sales pitch to get me into a financial obligation I couldn't afford to meet.
Kaplan, Florida Tech, U of P, and a few others all played that high pressure game. I have horror stories of emails containing conflicting information. I was "guaranteed" scholarship one by another school, however, when I researched the two scholarships programs mentioned.. the one was non-existent, the other had a residency requirement I did not meet.
AMU has the facts on their website and every time I called leaving a message, I received a return call or email with links taking me to the exact information I was looking for.
The cost for undergraduate can't be beat. Even other low cost (per credit) schools had hidden fees that doubled the actual costs. Some schools had issues with financial aid being used for books.
As a student, I find it refreshing that I can explore the course and do the work required at my own pace. I feel I lucked out because all the professors so far have been great. You post the questions and email them, I always get a response.
I have a heavy TDY schedule, and everyone works with me either by giving me assignments in advance to get the work complete before a mission, or to give me an extension without grade point deductions.
In all my life, I have never been this excited about any educational program.

6 months in, and a 3.9 GPA with 24 credits acheived at AMU. All of the professors, except one, have been great. Minus the one exception, instructors particpate, provide insighful feedback on your work, and facilitate group discussion on the subject material that is relevant to "working in the real world". It isn't just a bunch of useless theory, but practical application of theory.
I have noted in the classes completed, a high drop out rate. The first week is usually introducing yourself. The board is barraged with posts. By the end of the course, I have seen roughly a 50% wash out.
All of the instructors (except my bad seed) have had office hours and help by phone, email, and instant chat.
The only bad thing I have to say is that you need to register early and keep on top of your academic plan or you will wind up "dragging out" your program. Specifically, I have been trying to register for March 1 classes since October. All of my first choice classes have been booked solid, so I tried some second choice and still no luck. I must say, my student advisor has been very responsive to the problem and is working as I write this review to eek me into classes.
My only suggestion is to register for your classes as far in advance as possible to avoid this problem.

It is interesting that a Capella student would post her comments on an American Public University System site. Does she have the universities confused or not remember what university she is attending?
