Just completed my MA in criminal justice
June 3, 2011
To all of these people who say it is a scam and that if you get deployed they try to scam you is far beyond accurate. All teachers have a biography and most teachers I had in the CJ field have shown their credentials. I completed my program in 2 years and all the courses were relevant and the books I received were comprehensive. Financial Aid, Academic Advisers and the teachers were all great and ...

KUDOS to AMU
March 30, 2011
I just finished my MA in Criminal Justice and I feel it has been such an accomplishment. I am a homicide investigator and officer in the Coast Guard Reserve so free time is limited for me. The program allows for flexibility to maintian such a schedule. Most importantly, the school certainly meets the objectives of providing top notch education, and high standards for completion. I feel I earned my degree and at no time felt ...

AMU Undergrad
May 9, 2010
I am not going to say that AMU is the best school out there, nor the cheapest. However I started attending AMU while I was on active duty with the Corps. And I found with my work schedule and the lack of time to attend a traditional school, AMU was perfect. I had no problems with my professors in the criminal justice program, how ever the general education teachers were not the best in the ...

Fantastic, Fire UP!
March 26, 2010
I am presently enrolled in the Masters program at AMU, and I think it is great. Some classes are a much more detailed than others, and this is normal. I value what I hvae learned, and I am not looking for an easy way to get a diploma. AMU is not easy, and you will earn your diploma by learning and working.

Wonderful School
January 15, 2010
I completed my BA in Legal Studies from AMU in November, 2008 and, after carefully researching several universities, I recently started my MA in Criminal Justice at AMU as well. I began AMU in 2004 while I was active duty. When I registered for both my BA and Masters I have gotten and immediate response from AMU staffs either by e-mail. Considering it is an on-line school I believe this practice to be perfectly acceptable. ...

Great Program!
January 14, 2010
I'm just about done with my MA in Criminal Justice and overall have enjoyed my learning experience with the University. With one exception, all of my instructors were knowledgeable and very helpful. The one who wasn't I believe is no longer with the program. If I ran into any issues, I always felt as though if I couldn't resolve it with my professor directly, I was able to go to the Program Director. She has ...

Wow...
December 28, 2009
I have been attending AMU for 9 weeks now; and so far, I have been far from impressed. I wrote my final paper and received the feedback from my professor stating that my paper was too short. I pointed out to her that the final paper requirements stated that the length of the paper was to be the amount of pages I wrote-so she kindly bumped me up a couple of points. Then in my ...

The admissions process could not have been easier.  Their online financial aid and virtual financial aid office are seamless.  It was very easy and they have been in contact with me via email from square one.  I am excited to start my Masters program and from what I have seen, AMU will be a very positive experience.

To all of you who complain that AMU isn't good enough, I have noticed the same complaints.
1. You received poor grades.   Well, college isn't easy and you do have to read and study. You cannot do the bare requirements and expect A's and B's.
2. Instructors are not qualified.   How do people with 3 credits know who is good or not? An online course requires motivation, independence and creativity. I love people with GEDs say that professors with Ph.d's are no good. They do know more than you.
3. Cost.   I am in a Masters program and when I am finished (May 2011), it will have only cost me about $1500 including books! Are you kidding me? I went to college for my undergraduate degree in the 90's and it was more for 1 semester than what I am paying now, and I am learning. By the way, I am getting Tuition Assistance from the Army.
4. Quality.    Sure, this is not William & Mary, but people who complain about AMU could not get into any decent college elsewhere.

My conclusion... People who are using these excuses to badmouth AMU should spend their time actually studying. They are without doubt, losers.

Great Program!

Going to school on-line is like everything else in life - you get out of it what you put into it. Really hoping that they decide to pursue a CJ PhD - if so, I will definitely sign up!
