National University Reviews:
Don't do it!!!!
March 12, 2010
I paid over $5,000 to go to National University and they outsourced my training...it was so bad I quit. They are sneaky, deceitful, and downright awful. The training I got was just way below what standards for a college should be. Then because they outsourced my training I had a heck of a time trying to get help. What they did was WRONG. All just to make a buck.
Happy online student

This is my third course at NU and in case you're wondering this is REAL school. I have two B&M degrees and I have to work much harder in my NU program just to make the grade than I ever had to in my prior schools. Be prepared to do a lot of reading and a lot of writing. Discussions are either once or twice/week depending on a professor and you are required to give ...
High quality online education
September 3, 2009
Teachers really challenge students to achieve. Grades are not handed out freely. All courses I've taken have been intensive on scholarly research. I find it more challenging and more enriching than my B&M coourses at Nevada-Reno.
Outstanding Platform

I completed my Masters in Forensic Sciences in 2005. While this degree program does not prepare students to "step right in" to a professional position in the Forensic Sciences field, it does a great job in laying a knowledge foundation to pursue specific training in most areas of specialization. The faculty are generally very good and are true experts in their ares of expertise. The classes were ten week when I went, eight weeks now ...
Good Experience
October 28, 2008
I earned four degrees (an undergraduate [BPA-CJ] and three [MA/HRM, MA/MGT, & MPA] graduate) from National University while stationed in San Diego, CA. with the U.S. Navy in the early to mid 1990s. Ivy League it's not, but a solid education it is. Ninety-five percent of my Instructors were working professionals who brought great experience to the classroom; approximately 50% had earned terminal degrees. Five percent of the Instructors were, well, not so great, but ...
National University - Masters of Arts- English Lit
June 24, 2008
An outstanding program. I expected a diploma mill, but was pleasently surprised to find the professors challenged me in every course. Brick-and-mortor and on-line classes available, I completed mine entirely on-line. Instruction was engaging and insightful. Thesis work was also challenging, however my advisor was very helpful throughout the process.
Excellent

Excellent from start to finish! I received my MA in English from National University. The professors were great, and the material was very challenging. I encourage you to consider this university.

I took 3 courses in their MS Software Engineering back in 2004. 2 were a joke and 1 was good and tough.

I earned four degrees (an undergraduate [BPA-CJ] and three [MA/HRM, MA/MGT, & MPA] graduate) from National University while stationed in San Diego, CA. with the U.S. Navy in the early to mid 1990s. Ivy League it's not, but a solid education it is. Ninety-five percent of my Instructors were working professionals who brought great experience to the classroom; approximately 50% had earned terminal degrees. Five percent of the Instructors were, well, not so great, but I think that's the nature of any educational institution; however, now were malicious. My National University experience allowed me to later pursue a MBA in finance, and later an Ed.D in Organizational Leadership from reputable regionally accredited brick and mortar schools. I now have my own LLC, teach undergraduate and graduate studies as an adjunct at two universities in multiple academic disciplines, and attempt to give my students all the support and learning opportunities I was given by NU Instructors and Staff. Like most things in life, you get out of only what you put into any endeavor. National University was a great starting point for me and it has served me well.

been thinking of going to national university..all i hear so far is good things which is not common on this site for a lot of the other online school..

An excellent University if you are comfortable reading (a lot) and writing. There is no pablum here, or support system for those who are not self disciplined. Many matriculate only to fail at the research and Thesis stage due to a general inability to write to publishable standards. Professors are mostly credentialed experts in their fields.
Overall: A-

I only took a few undergraduate courses for transfer from one of their Los Angeles satellite campuses, but they were good courses. The instructors I had were very knowledgeable, handled the classes well and responded to questions promptly. I had no particular issues with any administration people. I see from the various posts, the admin seems to be a problem.
All of my units transferred with no problem and I motored on down the road at UCONN...........where I was a small fish in a very large bowl. Same textbooks, different treatment.
NU gets an A- from me.

Would you recommend National University over University of Phoenix? I am going back to school to complete my undergraduate classes and obtain a teaching credential.

Let's put is this way, I wouldn't recommend UoP to anyone!
Ty February 16, 2010 at 11:45 p.m.
I would recommend National over just about anyone if you want to get a teaching credential. Something like 25% of the licensed teachers in California came through NU, and there must be a reason for it.
