Pennsylvania State University World Campus Reviews:

Law and Society Degree from PSU World Campus
January 26, 2012
I was at student at Penn State University Park for my first three years. Due to medical problems, I had to finish my last year of my degree online through Penn State's World Campus. I could not have been more satisfied with Penn State World Campus. The classes were challenging enough to to make me feel stimulated, with many of the professors being professors on campus. The material was relevant to the degree. The ease ...

an education worth the work!
August 18, 2011
Penn State world campus is amazing, I wish they had it years ago. You get the Penn state education standards, ciriculium and challenges but the ability to do it online. Like any real college you are not hand walked through it, you make your own choices about classes and have to work hard to do and accomplish the work but if you do you will have a degree in your hands from Penn State! I ...

Very Well Organized Online
April 11, 2011
Being an Online Degree, This shool implements all facets of the course material very well. I have taken 4 classes and would recommend this University over several other online shools that I have researched and heard about. The courses are presented very well just as good if Not Better than in person or in class situation. For an adult with a demanding work schedule looking for a part time shool set up to earn a ...

Not impressed so far...
January 5, 2011
I've taken a few classes and the program definitely needs improved curriculum and instructors. It seems like Penn State doesn't want to invest much in this program. There's only one section of each course. The instructors seem to be bottom of the barrel from the College of IST. They have poor ratings from professor review sites, and rightly so. Many of them speak English as a second language,but aren't very proficient, which makes it difficult ...

Have taken two courses
July 31, 2010
Please note: I have been fortunate in my course selection--I give a total rating of about '9'--maybe even a total '10'--for the courses in which I have taken--but I have spoken A LOT and communicated A LOT with course mates, who have taken other courses which, from my understanding, deserve a crappy rating. They suffered. And I will write more about it at the end of this review. I am a senior and returning student ...

IMBA not a great online program
December 16, 2009
The IMBA seems like a good program. Some major hiccups. The chair does not respond to emails or phone calls. If you call his assistant, then you get routed to the main office, where there is a office assistant. You probably will not get all the information you need. It is a very tough process to understand what is required. The application process also has problems. I submitted the fee (there was no problem collecting ...

An Adult Ed Degree Made for Adults
January 31, 2008
Penn State's M.Ed. in Adult Education was challenging, team-oriented, pragmatic, and exactly what an online degree program should be. The nice part about this program is that it provides the fundamentals of the field of adult education (principles, research, the roots of adult education, etc.), and the projects that you complete can be chosen to meet your individual area of interest. You must learn to write academically and at a scholarly level. In my case, ...

I have recently been preparing to start classes and the support is terrible. I don't theink that this is uncommon from any other college, but you cannot talk to the people in person so you get the constant run around.

Be advised that there is very little participation on the part of the professors.  Most communication is done via email.  Very disappointing online program.
