Review:

I've been attending CSU since fall of 08'. I have often wondered if I should be taking distance courses through a state university, but then I remember what I'm getting with CSU. I like that the courses - no matter the subject, have the same ouline. Meaning - I always know the class structure. I have to post a dicussion answer to the Professors question by Thursday; I have to post a reply to another student by Sunday; I have to complete the weekly quiz by Sunday...etc. When you look up the quiz questions from the course, you can see that other universities are using the same information. This school is accredited and no different than any other University. The teachers are great and available when you need them. I also like that my books are included with tuition so I don't have to search for my books every term/semester. I also like that every 8 weeks I'm starting a new class. I tend to get bored with a typical long semester of slow moving courses so for me, this pace is just right. For anyone who says this place is a just a Degree Mill - I seriously disagree. Think about it - you pay all this money for a degree, why would the school want you to fail? Clearly they care whether or not you succeed. If you are behind or things are looking grim for you to pass the course - a school rep. contacts you asap. They work with you to help you find a way to get your grades up so you CAN pass. I have had a really good experience with CSU and would recommend it!

You Can't Loose with CSU

Review:

As much as you hear about online schools not being creditable. You can put that to rest with CSU, their staff and department supervisors will help you achieve your goals with one on one assistance and help. My advisor has been wonderful and a real help when I needed her and believe me I've used her a lot for questions and guidence. The material is up-to-date most books revised with the newest copy dated in 2008. The professors are there if you have questions about the material and their course material really makes you think and study to make sure you understand what is being shown to you. This is not some degree mill where you just pay them to give you a piece of paper, no you have to work for this degree and in my opinion work HARDER then a traditional school offer. Which really shows the value of their education. Thank You CSU for your standards, I've loved being your student!

Review:

      I did allot of research before choosing CSU.  I was worried how I would handle the online education and the individual responsibility to complete each course in ten weeks.  CSU's course format made it easy to stay motivated and finish within the allotted time.  That is why immediately after completing my BSBA, I decided to stay with CSU for my MBA.  Three graduate courses down, Nine more to go.
      I rated teachers a 9, as with all institutions, there is always that one instructor who is slow to respond, slow to grade an exam, and not much help.  In my tenure at Columbia Southern, this instructor was the exception.  Typically, they reply fast, answers questions to a level of satisfaction and provide a great deal of assistance should you need it.

Poor Administration

Review:

I've spent an entire year faxing, mailing and calling CSU with regard to several issues. If someone gets back to you within two weeks, consider it a special gift. It seems like every document (and check) I send their way vanishes into thin air...and then more waiting. I wish I had never heard of this school. As a result of poor management/administration, it would take 10 years to complete a degree.

Review:

Excellent program for people with work/family committments. The ability to work when I had time was the reason I was able to complete my degree. The work load of the program was not easy. It helped prepared me for my current job promotion, which I was able to receive three weeks after attaining my degree from CSU. Without my CSU degree, I would not have been eligible for a promotion.
