Useless, cannot find acceptance. I've completed the MBA program, and none of the employers I've applied to in the US recognize the degree. Starting over at an accredited college.
Not accredited but accepted

Even if it is an accredited university, I didn't have a problem to find a job.I know, I'm in Europe but my knowledge has been recognized. The courses were quite difficult but with the professor's help I did it.I enjoyed all the courses as they are up to date and they correspond to my needs. For me it worked now for others...maybe not. It's up to you and your employer.
Low utility, good self-learning

Low (or no) utility in the workforce for unaccredited degrees, but I still learned alot in the self-study style of the MBA where BSU provided the framework.
A very challenging and great experience.

Review:
I had a great learning experience and BSU. Communication in all regards was absolutely mind boggling; they surely do understand the concept of customer service. Tuition is decent too. The downside to obtaining a degree at BSU is that they aren’t accredited by anyone recognized by the DOE, so most employers won’t recognize the degree. You will find though, that if you look hard enough (as I did), that there are human beings out there that will recognize it as long as you have some type of experience. Experience is very important to some people, often better than a piece of paper. The main thing here is that learning does take place at BSU. But I do not understand why they do not get accredited. People that run this school have degrees from many accredited institutions; Phd’s, MBA’s, you name it. These guys are like the FREE MASONS or something. If they want to I know they can get accredited…with ease.

Breyer State University is a great, exceptional school for those who wan't to learn and expand their horizons. I've just finished my PhD in Organizational Psychology and I am a happy and satisfied graduate. Teachers are both knowledgeable and friedly, textbooks are up-to-date and the work required is quite demanding though very challenging.
Not usable for employment, but interesting

Disclaimer: Not valid for employment or to teach at the university level. I do not put this on my CV, and my dissertation is not indexed anywhere. That being said, I thought the structure and materials were nice. For those of you interested in self-study learning with some structure, but do not need to add this to a CV for a credential, I would recommended. It has really helped me broaden my knowledge, and on top of a quality MBA has been a nice mix.

The texts were great and current. The course curriculum material taken in all the courses was current/relevent/thought provoking/challenging. I did an enourmous amount of work that I put HOURS of study into. The courses well put together and built on each other BUT the PHD I graduated with IS USELESS. It isn't recognized anywhere AND if you attempt to USE this PHD it will only get you confronted and challenged!!!

Review:
All online schools are global in nature and are state specific. So that does mean you will automatically get hired cause you went to an accredited school. I have degrees from accredited schools but without the license or credentials there is not much I can do. The reason is to negate many of these so called allegations that keep coming up about BSU. I am alumni of BSU as I completed my Non Bar J.D degee in Dec 2007. While they were still in AL. The program was rigorous but I also came from another law school, that was unaccredited in CA. The only difference about that school it was registered with the state bar of CA. And did not offer a non bar program,and they were much more expensive for my needs,however this other law school did have a non-bar at one time, they stopped it. So they are no more govened the Breyer. The on a law degree, with viable curriculum supervised under a licensed attorney. One person asked why would want to go to NB law program, if they cannot practice law? Most people believe that. That is a preference maybe somebody does not want to sit through the bar, they just want a law degree, other then practicing law. So I did not get my JD degree over the week-end, you can within your pace within their guidlines, but nobody gave me my law degree I earned it. I had to send accredited transcripts and BA was required. In reference programs their PH.D that is another misnomer as I was NEVER ever offered an honorary degree for my Ph.D. Which I have been working on off and on, but due to the uncertain economy I go when I can that is a positive about Breyer you are not backed in corner to go quarter or semester without stopping yes they have a time frame, but I was given the normal that any school school would give, and I would have to finish the duration. I also have to a disseration, and its legal to hold that degree, the only thing is I cannot get licensed however as I said above with the accredited schools, you still have be eligible for licensure also. It is automatic the degree is one thing and the license or credentials or another. I went to another online for and almost three towards Ph.D and I could not finish because it cost me over 10 grand in residencies Breyer does not require that, and these other school should the same for people that are not position to pay out like that especially with schools today. So Breyer is my likely choice. I never once recall them implying that were accredited, they have said they were unaccredited. Online schools can be located one placed and be operating somewhere else. The wording that did come from Breyer was given to students when they re-located from AL to CA, and that they are pending an appeal. CA used to have POST secondary over them but schools out there had to sign a waiver agreeing to keep the schools and deal with the student under state statues. Some did not. However I have never Breyer as a dipolma mill. Thanks Torts
Good School

I am currently attending BSU and I have one term before graduating. The experience is overall great! The staff is really supportive and the student services have been excellent. I came from University of London and my experience here has made me stay through completion!

Not valid in the US, or for advancement in pay as a teacher in the US. I completed the MBA program, submitted it for reimbursement / and advancement, and was confronted by the administration at my school, who denounced me for trying to deceive them. Needless to say, not on my resume, not useful for anything related to employment. On the upside, not challenging, and read a few interesting, entry-level business books.
good level but unaccredited

All the materials were quite nice.Up-to-date books nice communication with the professor but...unaccredited.I don't know in the future what will be BSU's accreditation status but for the moment before use the degree I have to mention it that it is unaccredited. As all the online universities, BSU should improve some points that they have been already discussed in this forum and also to the official BSU forum

Underestimated Value of Accreditation, useless. After working in my field for 20 years, I wanted to return and get my MBA to be able to teach at a local community college. With a Breyer State degree, I am unable to become professionally licensed, and unable to teach anywhere since my degree is not recognized. Out money and starting over.

I have completed my BS in Business and found the program to be in line with other RA Universities. BSU has taken its share of bad press lately, but has always responded in a professional and informanated manner to its student body on all topics. I am not ashamed, nor do I regret to be an alumni of this institution and will return to complete my MBA.

Review:
I graduated with a BSc in IT & Computer systems.I have a lot of credits by RA universities and colleges.I didn't see any difference in their courses.I can say that in some courses it was more difficult than in my RA degree.Even if it is not RA the university asks a lot of work.The faculty is quite good and they answering in less than 12h(by email, else you can call the university). The only critical point is it's accreditation but that wasn't a problem for my employer. And something else...BSU is not a degree mill as several people in the forums says. Now, I'm planning for an MSc at BSU. cheers from France
