Chatham University Reviews:
Be prepared to advocate for yourself
June 21, 2010
I have only taken 3 courses so far but I can tell you that I have really had to advocate one way or another for myself in each class. The administrative staff is seriously lacking. Each student is assigned an "advisor" who is supposed to help you navigate through the online program. I rarely if ever receive the help I have requested from mine. I am supposed to be starting a class next week on ...
Solid program- good value.
December 20, 2009
Living abroad, this has been an excellent way for me to work towards a master's degree in professional writing. Currently I have three more classes to go, and expect to graduate from Chahtam's program in August 2010. The program has definitely broadened my horizons and I feel that my writing has improved greatly. The difficulty of the coursework has been varied, but I would say that I have had to put in approximately 20+ hours ...
A Decent Program
November 18, 2009
It's been a good experience. The biggest drawback is that the accelerated format of the classes made it difficult to delve deeply into subjects. Some of the professors I had were fantastic. Others were downright terrible and completely disinterested in the classes. However, I did learn a ton from the instructors who took time to be involved with the students. I started the degree in August of 2008 and will complete it in December, 2009. ...
So far, so good
December 26, 2008
I'm about half way through this degree program. I have been mostly happy thus far. The instructors are hit or miss, you have to do some research on them before deciding who to take a course with. I've had some that are great, very skilled and top-notch, and some that are not on the ball, un-organized and slow to respond. I have enjoyed what I've learned thus far and believe it will be useful in ...
I would recommend
November 19, 2008
I have three courses yet to complete my degree. Overall, I found the faculty to be top-notch. Most are adjunct professors. However, I don't think that you would really want to have mainly PhD-types (who focus more on theory and academic writing) teaching this program. Most professors are professional journalists and writers with many years of experience writing for national publications (like Newsweek and The Economist). As a result, they bring practical insight into what ...
So Far So Good
October 14, 2008
I just finished the introductory class (3 units worth) and I'm incredibly pleased with the material that was covered. The course work wasn't too challenging, but it really made me think about a lot of issues. Students generally take one course every seven weeks, so the classes seem to move along rather swiftly. Every single staff member I've interacted with has been professional, kind and more than willing to address any concerns I've had. I ...
