Review:

I just finished my proctored exam at Aspen and I will tell you it was tough! I did prepare pretty well reviewing all of my subject material over a 6 week period.  If you study and prepare,you should do ok.  I was fortunate enough to pass it on the first try and am very excited about starting my last project.

Review:

I just graduated with an MBA degree (May 2009) from Aspen and it was an excellent experience.  I have a double major in Chemical engineering and chemistry prior to starting the MBA and found the courses to be challenging and real life relevant.  The instructors and staff were very helpful and responded to questions promplty.

The MBA courses are similiar to those found at other universities but Aspen University offers the best value for the cost.  I would recommend the school to prospective students.  I was able to complete the entire program in 13 months full time (alot of work) and have gained a strong business background.

The courses need better structure and clarity, and the website needs to be updated. Overall, what you receive is about right for the amount you pay.

Wow, so far my experience at Aspen University has been amazing. I never even new it existed until I did some research about online schools. So far, the teachers have been very helpful. They give you the guidance need to get through the online learning experience. I would definitely recommend Aspen to any prospective students interested in going back to school for a Masters or to completing their undergraduate degree.

Aspen lied about independant classes

Review:

When I first registered, I enrolled in the independant online studies.  This is suppose to be at your own pace with the choice of taking a final exam or writing a research paper.  About 3 classes into the program they changed the rules.  It is mandatory for you to participate in the discussion board which is a part of the interactive studies.  That was the biggest difference between independant and interactive, the names say it all.  Now we are being forced to work at the schools pace and the other students paces instead of our own.  There is no way you can work at your own pace a participate in the discussion because the discussion comes from the reading assignments and the discussions are due weekly.  If you don't participate, they will drop your final grade by a letter.  They might be cheap but the way they conduct their online program is WRONG. They should only advertise that they have a interactive class.

MBA Program

Review:

It is by far the best value for an accredited on-line MBA degree program. The lecture notes are kind of redundant but with the amount of material and pace of the course, it is nice to focus on the "meat and potatoes" of the lessons besides them being helpful in studying for the inevitable final exam.  The staff is helpful and the process simple.  The use of on-line technology could be improved but it is ok.  The courses so far are fairly demanding (on my 4th class out of 11 before completing the capstone/thesis project).  The time allowed for each class is 8-10 weeks and they offer independent or interactive courses.

No Lecture Notes - Yes Web Portal!!

Review:

I have taken several courses at Aspen.  I do not like to purchase the lecture notes that are never used and do not add value to the overall experience.  The instructors do not use the lecture notes either and only utilize the text.  I would recommend that Aspen shift the dollars spent on lecture notes to the web portal.  I have taken classes at other online schools and their portals have Aspen's beat hands down.  Aspen could really improve the overall experience by improving the web portal.

I am enjoying my experience at Aspen and find it right up there with Phoenix for online U's. I especially liked the Lecture Notes that pointed me to really useful stuff for the final exams.

There is no better value in today's MBA marketplace than Aspen. The accredited degree is as extensive as others for a fraction of the cost. For $4,500, its worth the education in any field. It has been a great experience.

Pleasantly Surprised

Review:

I am very happily surprised with the quality of the MBA program at Aspen.  I have two friends who have just finished their MBA at better known schools (UoP and UCLA) and on the core MBA courses (accounting, finance, economics) I have found that I was able to equal at at time exceed the more traditional programs.  Aspen requires a class in Business Ethics that UoP doesn't and seems to provide at least as solid a background in basic business for middle-management people like me as the other two schools.
