Excellent MS Program I completed my Master's degree in Computer Science in 2010. It was a very stimulating and rewarding experience for me. I needed the additional knowledge to help my career as a Patent Attorney. I had previously earned my BS in Computational Math from a private college in the Midwest, and I had nearly 20 years of professional experience as a Software Engineer. I went on to earn my JD. The school was more than adequate for my needs. About accreditation, the process to become regionally accredited takes a long time. No surprise that very legitimate online schools haven't obtained the honor yet. ASU is nationally accredited by the DETC. I found this to be adequate for my needs. What you know is more important than where you learned it.

lacks regional and/or national accreditation for MSN program Part way through the MSN and have been informed by employer they will not acknowledge the MSN degree because the university does not have regional or national accreditation ! Make sure your employer or potential employers accept this universities degree!

I regret getting a ASU CS degree My degree from ASU is worthless. I can't get into any regionally accredited MBA school, aside from crappy online institutions like UOP and Capella. I called every single AACSB university only to be told Sorry. Do not go to this school...yes it's cheap (affordable) and convenient but totally worthless. But at least I can say I completed my bachelor's...congratulations idiot.

Don't bother The university was great at first. As a military memeber, they provided the books for "free" with tuition. I initially found the online university somewhat pleasing. Over time it become obvious, this is just a step above paying for a degree. One class I took, the teacher didn't even bother looking over anything. I knew I had errors in some of my questions answers but still recieved a 100%. Other times I knew my answer was correct but missed some points based on technicalities in a difference of opinions on how the question should have been answered. I recently will be leaving this college after taking multiple classes with them due to not only average at best online environments, but have ran into multiple professors that won't help that much. The most recent case, the professor wouldn't even take a call from me (claiming they didn't have a phone and that since they were adjunt... they weren't required to call me). Disappointed to say the least.

Excellent Computer Science Masters program This is an excellent school to earn a Masters degree in Computer Science and it exceeded my expectations. I am studying to become a patent attorney and it was critical for me to earn my degree at a school that I felt was challenging and legitimate. It's nationally accredited and incrementally making changes to become regionally accredited as well. Regional accreditation is inevitable since I can't imagine a better place to earn a Masters degree. I had been a software engineer for over 17 years when I applied and flexibility was very important since I had to work. Each class was stimulating. Every professor was very knowledgable in the subject matter and many of the course textbooks were the same books being used for the graduate classes at Stanford University. Nearly every textbook was a leading book on the subject. The programming assignments were challenging. The professors worked hard to encourage creativity and novel approaches to the homework problems. Excellent program. The professors were always available and helpful. Technical support readily available and the school staff treated me as though I was party of a family. The degree has boosted my career and enhanced my knowledge in the field. I would highly recommend this school.

BSCS degree Received a BSCS over the course of 3 years, basically like independent graduate study work you'd have to do at a major university. If you are not self-motivated and able to work through problems and tasks on your own with some or indirect help from teachers (they will not give you the answers only point you in the right direction), then online education and ASU isn't for you. ASU is much harder then going to a brick and mortar university (I started my degree at large one). With my degree I landed a well paying job working for the govt. and in the aerospace industry side of it.
