Nothing But Bad Experiences
I enrolled in this school with the advice of a friend, I started my Major In BA, but switched to CJ, simply because I needed my degree for promotion reasons. From the day I switched it was nothing but problems, the student rteps dont return your phone call or email even though I have been in the school of almost a year and send them my records they claimed they did not have it, Very few of my prior credits were evaluated even though they were from a regionally acredited school, think they want you to take more of their classes. I felt like I was a piece of meat the only time I heard from my student rep was when she neded me to sign up for a new class from the day I enrolled in the class i never heard from her again.
I recently had to call and ask that she be changed as my rep because she has failed me in every endeavor, from the computer scholarship program, enrolling in classes, getting my transcrips and processing my enrollment. I sined up for a class a mont prior to the start date, I am deployed so I thought being proactive I will sign up and have my books on time, worng! she sent me an email one day prior to the start date " sorry your class was not processed in the system even though E,ARMYU had it processed, she was just too dran lazy to take care of my enrollment before the start date. I can write a thesis on Grantham, they boast to be military friendly, NOT! ALL THEY CARE IS THAT THEY GET THEIR MONEY, I am stuck I am so far along that it would be stupid to change schools, maybe I am just unlucky with the great reviews I see posted here. My soldiers always ask me what is the best school i tell them dont touch Grantham with a 10 foot pole.

Don't Be Fooled By These Crooks
I took 3 semester's worth of classes at Grantham Universtiy. I am a SSgt in the United States Air Force. This is a school that just has a lot of money, and can pay off sites like military.com to do their advertising. If you don't believe that they ARE NOT regionally accredited, just look at their website: http://www.grantham.edu/other/accreditation.php
They talk about how important accreditation is. And they have a very professional looking website. Many people think that "nationally" accredited is what to look for, this is simply NOT true. They 'brag' about being accredited through DETC; which is a worthless Accrediting Commission. You want your school to be regionally accredited. PLEASE LISTEN TO ME, AND TAKE MY ADVICE!!! This school's credits are WORTHLESS! 100% WORTHLESS; I cannot get ANY OTHER School to accept my credits, the "CCAF (Community College of the Air Force) who paid for these classes won't even accept these credits (and I took Math Classes, English Classes, Physc, and a few criminal justice classes). I worked with 3 other people that went to this school, and completed all of their requirements for their CCAF, and when they went to go transfer their credits, CCAF wouldn't take any of them. None of the community colleges would take them. Rutger's wouldn't take them, no well known, respected university would touch them. All of these "positive" reviews HAVE to be from the school itself. I really wish military.com would stop take this school's advertising dollars, and stop putting them out as a "military friendly school".
The course books are a JOKE. The course work is a joke, you just take mulitple choice tests, that are easy, and you are allowed to use the book. There is no time for the test either. Your not going to learn anything. And good luck trying to get in touch with anyone here. Tech support? Professors? Academic Deans? Advisors? NOTHING. The people you WILL here from are the admissions folks, you will get in touch with them in a heart beat. At first I thought I just had a bad teacher. Until I realized that this school barely exsists. I got a hold of no one. I have written the Dean countless times, his name is J. Patrick Cambell. I have still not heard back from any of my emails, phone calls, or letters I've sent him. Please please please, just take my advice, DO NOT TOUCH THIS SCHOOL! I wish, man I wish someone would have warned me. At McGuire AFB, I actually got the Wing CC to post an advisory about this school at the Ed. Center. I really wish that military would just go ahead and ban this school.
