I completed all my courses back in February. They are still indicating that they do not have my final exam and refuse to give me my degree that I worked soo hard for. The final exam doesn't even count towards your grade. Everytime I had to send in an assignment they always indicated they never received it and I had to go to the Better Business Bureau each time before they would finally acknowledge receiving it.

Review:
I am enrolled my Bachelors in Business Administration. I agree and disagree with the other comments listed below. First, use of technology is excellent, I can submit my assignment and get a grade with that some week only once I have had to wait 2 weeks and sent an email. With the materials, I have had to send an email to my book for the next course, but they have always responded with 1-2 business days. Again this is an online course, it may not be for everyone. Tht tuition is affordable for me compared to other colleges in my area. Like on of the other reviews said, "Look into this before you agree to anything."
I am embarrassed by my AS-CJ degree from Ashworth

Review:
I enrolled in the Criminal Justice course, and it took me a little over a year to complete, from 2006 to 2007. Some of the course work was so simple, I could complete the course work in about a week, when it was designed to take a month. I completed the College Math course in about six hours total. The materials - The text books are dated. It was 2007 when I was doing the Criminal Investigation course and the text book was from 1998. Support - 30 minutes on the phone, on hold. Waiting to talk to someone that didn't want to talk to you or give you a high pressure sales pitch. What, do they work in a boiler room? It's like talking to a collections department at a credit card company "How about making a down payment of $500??" - Actual Employee quote. They lost my assignments I submitted, I had to submit it three times. Value - It's about on par with most community colleges. Use of Technologies is very good. Too bad, their own staff doesn't know how to use it.

I have taken the career diploma in Locksmithing, and working on AS in Criminal Justice. I have had a wonderful experience so far. Books are always early, payments are low, and when you actually do get them on the phone, they have always been helpful. Would recommend to someone who does not need motivation at all to follow through with a task.

Ashworth College stole my down payment. Before I could enroll they sent a number of mail asking me to sign up...As soon as I sent my first down payment I never heard from them again..I sent tons of mail after sending my payment and up til this moment I have never gotten a response. Maybe it's because they know that I live in the caribbean..Well, I guess I wil personally have to go back to the US and find where they are located to demand my money back with interest..These scammers!!!!!!!

AT FIRST THIS SCHOOL WAS OK, BUT NOW IT'S A BIG WASTE OF TIME. I KEEP TRYING TO GET MY EXAM SENT TO MY PROCTOR, I GET PUT ON HOLD FOR 30 MIN., THEN TRANSFERRED I WAS THEN ON HOLD FOR AN ENTIRE HOUR, STILL WITHOUT AN ANSWER SO I JUST HUNG UP. PLEASE- HEAR IT FROM SOMEONE THAT WOULD NOT TELL YOU NO LIE, THIS IS NOT WORTH IT. THE STUDENT SERVICE IS SO BAD!!!!! THEY HIRE PEOPLE THAT SPEAKS AS IF THEY HAVE NO EDUCATION. THIS IS NOT THE WAY TO GO IN ORDER TO BE SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE!! ATTEND UNIVERSITY OF PHOENIX OR SOMEWHERE ELSE-WAY MORE PROFESSIONAL AND ACCREDITED.

This was the best decision of my life I mean the best. The tuition was affordable and what you get in return cost 5x more. Since graduated I entered The Army with a pay raise and was offered a job as an officer. Now I'm enrolled in RA accredited college I transfered my credits no problem. The only thing is that they valued them at 75 percent but other than that I have had no problem

Review:
I have earned three Bachelor of Sciences degrees from regionally accredited universities. I have also earned a Master's degree from a regionally accredited university. I have studied online and earned a graduate diploma from Cambridge University in England--one of the most renowned schools in the world. I am currently working on my MBA from Ashworth University. Why? Because I am a lifelong learner and AU is a great value. I can honestly say that AU is a great school. I did have some problems with the school early on, but they have worked hard to overcome any issues that they once had. Their student services are now very quick and polite. They really seem like they care. I am proud of the school and the accomplishments that they have done to improve the school. The tuition is unbelievably low! Great job AU! Mark

Review:
I was reading many of the other comments on Ashworth College, and I am different than most. I was impressed, when I first started, at their prices. Their prices are low, compared to many other schools. I have seen schools with over 14,000 a quarter, and my program will end up costing a little over 4,000 for an Associates. Also, they sent my materials quickly. I get my books before my current class is even done, and they have never forgotten anything at all. They respond to my emails usually within the first day I send them, and they always assure me to talk with them whenever I have a problem. I am impresed with their materials. All updated, revisied, etc, with in the last couple years, and the book publishers are good institutions. I have learned hoardes of informations from them, and they give those who may not have lots of time to study plenty of time. They give you 4 years to complete an Associates. Plenty of time! This program works well for me, a student with lots of other stuff going on in my life. I am enjoying Ashworth completely. But if you need someone, a teacher and a class, to keep you motivated in studying, then you probably should not do homestudy. I think Ashworth is a great college, 5 stars on their every service and materials!

Review:
I graduated this month from the Associates in Security Management degree program. All things considered, Ashworth College is worth it if: 1) You don't have time to attend classes due to family/work committments 2) You do have the discipline to work with limited direction 3) You don't want to spend much money on your degree Although there are occasional customer service issues, I was able to get all of them resolved quickly. The best way to contact the school is either to use the Helpline on the Student Services website or to ask for help at the school's internet forum. Probably the most common problem I had was getting them to ship the next course (they are supposed to send them automatically when 80% of the previous course is finished). One email was always enough to prompt delivery. The course content was good, although some of the material was slightly outdated. Most of the outdated material was the result of new Supreme Court decisions or because of updates in Homeland Security. This is understandable, but I hope they update their material ASAP. One thing that suprised me was how challenging the material really was. I'll admit that when I started, I thought it was going to be a walk-over, especially because all of the exams are "open book". Not so. The writing assignments were tough, particularly in the Introduction to Terrorism and Criminal Behavior courses. For time, It took me from April 2007 until December 2008 (20 months)to finish what is intended to be a two-year program. I thought that was reasonable. There is sometimes a great deal of down time between courses if you are waiting for a paper to be graded. Recently, they started allowing students to submit writing assignments electronically and I was able to get my last two papers turned in and graded within three days. I think the longest I waited was one month for a paper to be graded. If I wasn't waiting for a paper to be graded, I never waited longer than a week for courses or semester final exams. The cost is about as low as you can get at $80/credit hour. The only concern you should have before you sign up is contacting any four-year colleges you may transfer to/potential employers and finding out if they will accept a degree from Ashworth. Many regionally-accredited online schools will, but you better shop around first! I've found one already and will be starting my bachelors degree program in April 2009. To emphasize: do this BEFORE you enroll with Ashworth! For what it's worth, I had a good experience with Ashworth and would recommend it to anyone ONLY if I thought they had the drive and focus to stick with it to the end and did not need a lot of "hands on" from a instructor. As a working adult with a family who already has a great deal of experience in the degree field I studied, it was a great choice for me.

I am currently in my second semester of A.S in Accounting. I have had a great expierence at Ashworth! They have always been very helpful and prompt in their service . I am very satisfied with the student forum, and their response to any problems I have had . Remember, Online school isn't for everyone because you have to be motivated and police yourself in your studies! I already have a career diploma in Tax Preparation from Ashworth and am working in the Tax buisness.All in all ,I am very satisfied with them!

Review:
I will complete my AA degree in Psychology in January 2009 after 9 months. I have had no problems. I read the reviews about Ashworth prior to enrolling and just got prepared for the inconsistent service of student services and it is true - but just know that and work it. After I completed each course, I called to be sure next shipment was on the way. After a week or so of submitting hand graded assignment, call them and push them along (use the drop box!!!). For the cost and speed of getting a degree, SO worth a phone call a week. For the most part, I encountered customer service associates who weren't always the brightest, but were looking to help. My current employer, Microsoft, accepts the degree and has paid for most of it, so I figure that is a good measure

I was told all of my credits would transfer. I have close to 90. This was a waste of my time. I sent all "unopened" material back to them because I was going to lose too many hours because few would transfer. They are hounding me to pay for a cancellation charge. They arent getting it from me either! They didnt do a thing for me. I tried to explain but they would not hear of it.

Review:
i enrolled in June 2008 for Business Administration Bachelors Degree. First, they said they would accept all my credits from the previous college, Second - it took them until September 2008 to return any emails regarding the transfere of my credits. They did not accept all my credits only 35. Which dropped me back to an associates. Now, they are hounding me for payment for withdrawal. I have refused to pay this telling them due to poor service. They are going to report this as a default in payment to the credit bureau. I am reporting them to the Department of Education and to BBB for poor and misleading information.

Great materials and great experience overall I am almost finished with my Bachelors and will begin my MBA in 2009. I was laid off from my job so it gave me an opportunity to do more course work. Basically I have to spend more time waiting for course work to ship and receive than it takes me most of the time to complete the work. Would recommend to someone wanting to finish or start their degree. Have to have a lot of of time management and self discpline.

Review:
Many weeks after signing up and paying in full, I still cannot get any answers. They sent an almost empty box with no course material. Said they shipped a replacement 2 day air - took 22 days to receive. On hold with every phone number I called; once after 25 minutes I was told I had 26 minutes to go; gave up. Said my online course was "Out of service" with no estimate of when I could get online to take the course; been 6 weeks now. Got transfered to correspondence with no online at all. No matter what number I call, I am told to call yet another number and this goes on forever until you end up back at the first number which never picks up. I finally got the first installment and after 50 years in the field, consider it to be fairly good. But I consider the school? to be a scam. I just mailed in the first 4 exams because I can't get online (said that I don't exist) and if I do not get the next set of materials in a timely fashion I will request a refund and if not immediately forthcoming, will file against them. I have no patience in my life for this kind of nonsense.

I had to cancel as the school would not send me the correct textbooks to do the course. After repeated phone calls and emails, they basically scrugged their shoulders and had no reason as to why this was not done for me. I asked "Why" and got no answer...Silence on the other end of the phone...Don't waste your money. The exams were not well done either with missing diagrams etc

I have just finished paying off degree my Associates degree in psychology and I finished the program in less than 2 years. I learned a lot from my courses and they have helped me at my job as a certified nurses aide. It's not all roses though... Basically it goes like this, you HAVE to be a self learner. Yes you will be on your own when it comes to doing your courses. I myself found them easy but others might not. Now we come to the issue of shipments... I wait almost 3 months for a semester exam because I forgot there was a required written report to send in. Also you need to constantly be on student services for your shipments. If you can deal with that then this is not a bad way to get your degree. What you put in is what you get. If you fail it's because you didn't try. This is only for the associates program. I don't know how their master's program is.

I have 2 classes (out of 20) left until I am finished with Ashworth's Associates in Psychology. I highly recommend Ashworth if you are dedicated to your education. The price is right, the books are included, they take monthy payments with no interest charged (you do need to have your tuition payed in full to graduate),it's self paced. My employer is paying for most of my tuition and will honor my degree when it comes time to advance to Case Manager. If you plan on transferring credits to another institution, make sure they will accept the Ashworth credits as the are nationally accredited and not regionally. I'm glad I found Ashworth.

I am starting my fourth semester of my associate degree program in accounting and I am so pleased with Ashworth that I am definitely going to stay and complete a batchelor degree program. Ashworth University has provided me with a wealth of knowledge for such a low cost. I've found no other online school that offers up to master degree level programs at such a low cost. Ashworth is accredited by the Distance Education and Training Council (DETC) which is nationally recognized by the US Department of Education as the accrediting agency that accredits schools of primarily distance learning. I have also found that credits from Ashworth University are transferrable to many other institutions that are regionally and nationally accredited. My employer, the Internal Revenue Service, has approved me for employee tuition assistance without hesitation. I recommend Ashworth to anyone who is looking for a properly accredited college education for a great value.

Ashworth college is an AT HOME STUDY COURSE! there are no teachers to hold your hand and complete the exam with you, if you are not outgoing enough to self teach yourself DO NOT USE THE INSTITUTION! The materials and exams are pretty self explanitory, you read it and understand it or don't and fail it's really up to you. Reguarding the techinical support and staff they are very helpful as long as you explain your problems. All in all I am currently enjoying my experiance.

Review:
I am currently enrolled for BBA programme ...Reading the above comments ....I would like to tell about my experience with Ashworth...I already do hold a Diploma in Basic accounting from Ashworth...The books were really informative and not that bad...I took my exams online results were quick...when I completed my payments I did receive my Diploma without any hastle.I did get bookkeeper job addign up that in my resume. They recently opened up the Bachelor's ...I wanted to enroll ,the staff whom I dealt with were okay...for quite a few lied about the office hours as he did not want to entertain any calls after 4pm. I did complain the matter to the incharge... I have submitted some of my assigments they are quite challenging I reviewed the books they are using...they are all really informative and really good ones I have to agree with that.You will definitely gain knowledge if you go thru the materials with real interest. once you drop the assignments in the drop box ...the course instructer responds if she needs any or acknowledges it with comments. You receive the grade within 3 weeks definitely. So far good...when you email them for any query it does take a week to respond though. Ashworth is in my affordability range.Other colleges are really expensive for Bachelor's...I cant afford them...some were rude also to me...i dont want to disclose the colleges name. after experiencing lies and rudeness from two to three colleges...I felt Ashworth is quite okay and it clicked...They responded to me...So I consider that's where I have to get my bachelor's. So I will recommend Ashworth.See the budget,the time,Accredition...Always make sure you know about the college limitations then join. But dont compare the degree with other colleges.this is Distance learning...nationnaly accredited.Thats all. Not that bad...Thats the budget go for it! PS: This is a real statement from a real student from Ashworth.

Since Ashworth College became Ashworth University there are several changes that have been made which are continuing to improve the Ashworth experience. There is no longer a need to wait endlessly for the semester exams, since you can now access them online. They can e-mail your proctor the exam or they can e-mail your proctor an access code so you can take your exam online. I called them and told them that I was ready for my exam and within 48 hours it was e-mailed to my proctor. Ashworth University is a great value and there are several colleges and universities that accept Ashworth credits. It is a GREAT value for the money! Have you seen how much certain other online colleges cost?

I have two children and work full-time so it was very difficult for me to get to classes after working a full day. Ashworth College allowed me to obtain my associate's degree without interferring with my work-life balance. If you are dedicated and a self-learner with ambition, you will be able to achieve your goals. The financing was great and the feeling of joy that overcame me when I receive the actual degree certificate was overwhelming. I am now obtaining my Bachelor's degree through Ashworth.

I started by wanting to get my Business Management degree and decided to change course torwards the end. The support people were very nice and informative about how many courses I could transfer to start my new career path. The value is exceptional also as I checked with another online university and they wanted twice as much per course and classes had to be paid for before you took them. I think overall Ashworth is a great choice.

Review:
I realize a 10 for Value may not show up in the review but it's important to know that someone going to the (distance learning/online) school feels that way. I'm looking at $4800 for an Associates degree at 0% financing. I compared that to a student loan and there was NO comparison. My minimum payments are $80 per month where my student loans were gonna be about $225...no good. I'm just a guy with a family that has had a successful business that came crashing down all around him and this school is giving me the opportunity to do a 180 degree turnaround. I'm starting from the bottom once again but this time I will have a degree in my hand that gives me an edge over my competition...yes, I feel it's that good. I just wish Ashworth offered a degree in Project Management. Other than that I highly recommend it.

Review:
I recently completed my Associates degree in Early Childhood Education with Ashworth College. Overall I really liked the college. The online exams were great! I recieved my grades the minute I submitted my test. (No waiting and waiting forever for results!) And the tuition and payments are GREAT!!!!!! The only problem with the college is there is really no teacher that helps and guides you through the program. This college is for people who like to "do it on your own!" Also, if you go to Ashworth I would suggest that you stay on top of student services to make sure that shipments are sent... I waited 2 months one time for a semester Exam. After that I would call and remind them that things needed to be shipped and I didn't have anymore problems! (I know that isn't the student's job... but it could be worse!) I learned a lot through the college, and I was able to transfer 53 of my credits to the college that I am going to now(Ashford University)!! I would recommend Ashworth College to friends and family. (Oh, I would like to mention that you get a LOVELY class ring when you graduate from Ashworth!!

Review:
I cannot in good faith recommend this school for Master's programs. I was enrolled in this school for a while, and finally cancelled. It seemed that the farther I got in my program, the slower the shipments became and the weaker student services became as far as responding to my questions or concerns. I lost quite a bit of money, but since I wanted to graduate sometime this decade, this was a move I felt I had to make.

Review:
This was a good course to keep me growing. I used a lot of what I learned in my current position with a public company. I found certain courses better than others but that may be the same for all colleges. I'm not using this degree to get into a wall street firm. Use the payment plan.

Review:
Overall, I had a good experience with this school. The only improvement that the school needs is in student services. I completed the AS in Criminal Justice in two years with them. The books and study guides that I received were for the most part current. I would recommend this school. For the cost and the quality that you get it's worth it. However, I still read about issues with student services.
