I loved my time at AMU. I mainly wanted to write a review to let people know that this is not a diploma mill school. My first class was History 101 with Dr. Barry Shollenberger. You will work your butt off to pass his class. I have had instructors from University of Chicago Law School, and Harvard who "moonlight" at AMU, so it is not always a cake walk just because it is an online ...

I'm having an excellent learning experience at apu. I've read through many of these posts. I can't get over the negative ones! The majority of their complaints are because the school won't refund their money because they dropped a course, or, I'm having problems with financial aid. The policies were in place before you signed up. I find it very, very hard to believe that someone who does very well at this school, would go ...

Unrivaled!

I recently graduated with my B.S. (3.0 GPA) and I would recommend AMU to anyone who is serious about their education. Several individuals wrote that the school is a diploma mill and it is not worth your time. If you are considering attending AMU, please do not listen to a few frustrated individuals who probably were looking for a diploma mill. Oh, they are also Regionally Accredited; that is the highest accredation any college/university can ...

I am pursuing my BS in legal Studies.  AMU is very challenging, and the professors so far have been great.  I would have to say that my Constitutional Law class was very difficult; I learned so much , it was a challenge for sure , but worth every minute.  I definitely recommend this accredited online university!

I attend AMU and after doing a lot of research for an accredited distance ed school, APUS definitely is there at the top. They ARE accredited! It's one of the top schools that the military recommends to their personnel. If you have respect for our military, that alone should say something. Their tuition is competitive and they accept financial aid and scholarships. Right now, I am studying for my Bachelor's in Legal Studies. I am excited to get started in the major ed part. The choice of electives is pretty nice as well... they have Bloodspatter analysis! Their professors are awesome, and every single one of them has a great track record which you can read from their Bio's. Hope this helps. APUS really is a good distance education campus.

Yes. LSAC (Law School Admissions Council) does recognize APUS as an accredited institution. You are able to sit for the LSAT.

I have been taking classes in this program for about a year now, and I must say that the classes are very challenging, informative, and all the instructors are extremely professional and knowledgeable in the subjects they are teaching (most of them are attorneys or have worked in the law for quite some years now).  The only downside is that the Legal Studies program is not ABA approved yet, but it really should be since it does meet all the requirements needed for it to at least be approved for paralegal studies.  I have gone physically to college before and learned the law and it was ABA approved but not anywhere near as challenging and helpful as these classes are.
