3 weeks and counting
April 21, 2012
I have three weeks until I finish my BS in Accounting with Kaplan. While not every experience has been stellar the majority of my time has been good. I agree with others that Financial Aid still needs improvement but I have seen strides to improve things over the past three years. Academic Advising has improved greatly. The majority of my professors were knowledgeable and engaging. When I dig down into many of the complaints I ...

Take Responsibility!
June 12, 2011
I've been reading all these reviews and one thing keeps crossing my mind. If people are pursuing a college degree, shouldn't they be able to think and read for themselves? Yes, the enrollment materials aren't very clear but it's up to the student to call and get answers. I never had any problems with financial aid, they were very helpful and carefully explained all my options. The teachers are generally outstanding - they have real ...

I was harassed for money I did not owe. Every day I got different emails and phone calls charging me for money that I did not owe. Each day the amount that I owed was different. I was taking 3 classes a quarter that I was told would not cost me anything out of pocket as long as I maintained a 80% I would receive a scholarship. I kept a 3.79 and started getting harassed ...

My personal experience
December 25, 2010
I just finished my undergraduate degree in Accounting with Kaplan. I have 2 things to nag about: The 1st one is that I found that the financial aid department needs revamping or something. They were very hard to reach, but they are servicing thousands of people, so that kind of explains their poor performance. The 2nd thing was ME. Many times I chose to give in instead of working a bit harder. If I had ...

What are you all crying about?
September 18, 2010
Wow. It seems to me there's a lot of whining going on here. First, let's address the reason each and every one of us use online education. It is for convenience. Others just couldn't cut the mustard in a non-profit setting. Their primary education was not up-to-par. Second, be smart enough to read. Stop blaming the University for YOUR inability to look out for yourself when YOU didn't take the time to read your Master ...

Biggest Mistake Ever!!!!
August 25, 2010
I decided to go back to school and finish my degree in Accounting. At first I went to university of phoenix, and while I enjoyed I decided to transfer to kaplan because I enjoyed to idea of online seminars. That was the only good thing about the school. I went to Kaplan for a little over a year and about half way through I found out that is college is a mistake. I was not ...

What is Everyone Whining About?
July 19, 2010
I have been reading a lot of the reviews and I just don't understand what the problem is. I think a lot of the people that are complaining either have/had FA issues or attended a Kaplan College....Not Kaplan University. I attended Kaplan College too and I will say that it got me NOWHERE. This is why I transfered to Kaplan University and I really like it. I have tried other online Universities and this is ...

I can understand both the positive and negative complaints about Kaplan University or any other school because everyone is first, entitled to their own opinion and second, because your experience is what you make it. With any other school or matter(s) in life, it is your responsibility to look out for yourself. We are all human and just because the Financial Aid department was supposed to be primarily responsible to handle the financial part of your education, the people that run the department are human just like ourselves. There will always be errors and bumps in the road everywhere you go. Ok yada yada! I have no complaints about Kaplan myself and all my concerns were addressed timely. I was the one who was in my own way if I ever stumbled. So a better new year to everyone.

I just wanted to warn everyone to read the university catalog "BEFORE" you enroll. Kaplan cheated me on the program requirements for graduation. When they conducted my priority audit review, they said the degree program only required 165 credits to graduate. After I enrolled I noticed my degree plan indicated 195 credits to graduate. I found that very strange so I looked up the university catalog and it said the degree program requirements were 180! Nothing matched up! I contacted Kaplan and am still waiting for them to straighten this out. BEWARE!!!!

I don't know where all the unsatisfied students are coming from but I have better results with Kaplan than I have with any other college I have been in. The professors are all there to help in my studies and willing to spend the extra time to help me do my best in my studies. I have only had a couple of professors that haven't been that way. The only problem I have had with Kaplan is the financial aid office is very slow to respond.
