I posted couple weeks ago.  I was looking up some resources for one of the case studies and came across Brainmass.com.  The module assignments appear to be copied and pasted directly from this site.  For these classes to be taught by P.H.Ds, I have never seen so many grammatical errors and typos.  I guess that happens when you copy and past in a hurry.  The Professor just sent an email apologizing for the confusion because he forgot to change the company to the one we were analyzing.  Of course I put a search in and it led me straight to the brainmass page with the same info...word for word

This school has it's weird following of high school dropouts / barely passed that joined the military. All of a sudden, these misfits are getting straight A's from TUI, and think that they are geniuses. What they fail to realize is this school is a FOR-PROFIT, out to exploit, fleece, plunder and depredate military educational benefits. And they do this by suckering these less fortunate [people] (that have educational benefits). This schools beloved WASC regional accreditation is threatened by WASC; TUI is going to lose it in March 2012. Also, this school is not AACSB accredited in its "business" program (basically this gold standard accrediting organization wouldn't dare get TUI stink on it). STAY AWAY. This school's motto "If you pay, you get an A". The education is substandard. I was challenged more in my 8th grade Algebra course than I was in the Masters level "Business Capstone" course, which was a complete joke. Schools like UOP, TUI, Ashford, Capella and the like are the bloodsuckers of the education world. The "pin worms" of societies crap. GO TO A STATE SCHOOL OR A COMMUNITY COLLEGE, they have more credibility in the real world. Schools like this will hurt your reputation and résumé. Don’t let their snake-oil salesmen PhDs tell you otherwise.

I began classes with TUIU back in August 2010.  I am scheduled to finish my degree in March 2012.  I agree with many who have stated previously that you definitely get back what you put into it.  I read a complaint about having to write too papers.  Obviously someone didn't research the curriculum because it clearly states there are no tests/quizzes.  I got my Bachelor's Degree from Embry-Riddle and and I kind of wish I stuck with them but I didn't want to come out of the pocket.  I have learned a lot though.  I attended traditional classes at University of Maryland and I can't tell you I remember much.  

I do have a problem with overall support.  I actually went and bashed TUIU on their Facebook page because I couldn't get anyone to call me back.  Student Services says you have to get Academic Advisor permission to enroll in the Capstone course but I don't even know who that is.  I asked the person they referred me to, what I needed to do to apply for graduation and she referred me to someone else who told me if would take 2-3 months after I complete my last course to confer my degree.  Really?

People putting down this program obviously don't understand self directed learning.  If you want spoon fed lessons go to a brick and mortar school and pay $85K.  If you are motivated and driven to learn this is an excellent program.  As with anything, you get what you put into it... so look in a mirror.  Talk to a few other MBA grads about their experience, especially when they were just trying to get through, they min ran their programs as well and skate with the degree while paying a ton of money.  If you are looking for preparedness, a degree only leads you, it is on you to do the rest.

This school gave me a MBA - plain and simple. It was just easy book reports on what I found on the Internet. My average grade for not really trying was an A-. I feel woefully underprepared for the business world, and can't recall what I really "learned" at this for-profit school. It's not even AACSB accredited (therefore disrespected in the real world). I should have gone to a state school, cheaper and actually accredited (probably would have learned something too). Stay away. The for-profit madness has hijacked education and taken it to a new low.

I don't have a problem with online schools.  I do have a problem with a so-called computer science program without basic foundational courses.  Computer science programs should include calculus, discrete mathematics, data structures, and several others not included in TUI's program.  If you want to go on to graduate school for computer science, this school will not prepare you.  Look for a school that follows the recommendations of the ACM or is ABET accredited.  I feel that there is very little actual computer science being taught at this school, and the fact is, the math courses they do require are waived if you have an AAS from the CCAF (which only requires 3 credits of math).  Those classes at Trident are College Mathematics, "Advanced Mathematics", and Basic Statistics. Super easy, non rigorous math classes... With no tests...The thing you will learn here is how to write a paper and how to depend on google to be your guide.  Programming classes are application based, and there is little emphasis on CS theory.  Course materials are horrible overall, but some courses were better than others.  You will not learn low level stuff like assembly, compilers, or even C.  You will learn to be an entry level code monkey doing mostly web based apps and no CS grad program will take you without a lot of prerequisites. One thing they do well...  Deadlines are flexible.

Professors are great, the academics are up to par and you learn a lot through their teaching methods. The interface is pretty simple to use even for those not computer savvy. I am pleased with my degree program but not the school itself. From financial aid to student services and admissions...they lack communication, don't get your documents processed fast enough and you literally have to email them over and over again to get a response. They are a bit disorganized and that does not make for a student centered organization. I think they need a lot of improvement when it comes to the admissions, registration and financial aid process. I would not be able to recommend this school based on this, there are too many critical errors and procrastination that occurs. If they were to fix these departments so that they serve the students and are more professional in doing so, I may have a change of opinion because the work is challenging and would be worth the tuition if all else was in order.

Trident learning experiences teaches real life applications through the case studies and learning plans. I am completely happy that this university will enhance my skill further in the work world. TUI truly is what you make of it, dedicating time, researching the various topics, and applying those concepts to real life situations, you develop growth and maturity within yourself. I am very pleased to be apart of this learning format and TUI as a whole.

Review:

Touro, TUI, Trident University (whichever it is now) is a sham. It is essentially a large profit machine that mills out diplomas and pays off retired service generals to legitimize their operations.  

The entire master's curriculum is centered around CDs and websites recommended by the professors. So a student pays $1,000 per class and in return gets a $5 CD and a couple of source recommendations. That is a master's course???

Then to top it all off the professors do not even read the works turned in. It is possible to submit a completely bogus paper and not only pass but receive a high grade.

If you are looking to get a "degree" in order to check a box then this is the place for you. However, if you want an education that can actually enhance your knowledge and looks respectable on paper then try elsewhere.

A complete joke.

Review:

I have attended Trident University for the past 4 years and it is NOT a degree mill.  Just like any other school, some professors/classes are more difficult than others.  It worked great for me because I have a family and a full time job.  I did the majority of my course work on the weekends and evenings.  Each course is broken down into 5 “modules”.  For each module, you get background reading materials and then write a paper based on what you read (they call this a “case” study).  You then choose a real-life situation and write a paper based on the subject (they call this a secession long project).  You do this for all 5 modules-so there is a total of 10 papers for each class.  Each paper is expected to be approximately 3-5 pages in length.  In addition you must take part in a “threaded discussion” which is like class participation.  The professor asks a question specifically about the subject in that module and each student is expected to answer-giving their personal opinion.  Everyone in the class sees your response and has the opportunity to follow-up to your response.  It was the perfect fit for me.

Review:

The courses were interesting and I learned a lot, but when I started talking directly with faculty, I began to lose respect.  Perhaps my analytical background overmatched them.  It was frustrating when they misunderstood or didn't comprehend what I was talking about.  Perhaps this would be a problem anywhere, but I'm not sure of that.  The real beginning of the end came when I started receiving conference programs from AOM and realized that most of the discourse is inside the community and not so much the outside world.  If actual businesses pay little attention to what the profession is doing, how relevant is it?  There are occasional gems, but for the most part this sector of the academic community speaks only to itself.  I lost respect for the field.

The actual university is sort of homebrew, some of it excellent, some of it just a cash collection machine.

Mixed feelings

Review:

I am a graduate of the BSCS program and have mixed feelings about what I got from TUI (now Trident). First and foremost, I can truly say that during my 2 year with TUI I most certainly learned the subject material; however, the “school” played little part in my learning other than a broad direction and of course my degree.

I have been a hobbyist Java programmer since junior high school and have gradually expanded my knowledge since. Today, I like to classify myself as a Java Rock-Star so when it came to the different CS classes at TUI, I typically had no issues completing the technical assignments. TUI provided little to no “education” as mentioned previously by some of the poster here, they just provide links to other schools & organizations. Ruby on rails for example, is “taught” by having the students simply complete the ruby on rails tutorial given on the RoR website… why on earth should I pay $1200 to learn something that is otherwise free?... For ruby on rails, I actually turned to the UC Berkeley YouTube channel, which provided a much more in depth and world-class introduction to the topic.

Secondly, as some have mentioned, the writing criteria at TUI seems to be sub-standard. I am by no means a great or even good writer (one of the reasons I didn’t go to college out of high school). Yet I typically got A’s on essays and research papers that were probably within the realm of a C or maybe a low B (I’ve never been to a brick-and –mortar school so I have no comparison).

The one thing that I believe is incorrect in these postings is saying that TUI is “easy” (specifically the BSCS program). The courses were certainly easy for me but that’s due in large part to my past experience with programming (you know one O.O. language you know them all). For a beginner, I feel that these courses may in fact be too difficult, due to the lack of professor-student interaction.

On that note, the “threaded discussions” were a joke. I would do a bit of internet research on a given topic (including Wikipedia) and then formulate my own thought and post it as a response. Most of the other student responses however, were literally copied and pasted from the sources I had just read, verbatim! Again, I cannot speak from experience but it seems that any worthwhile CS instructor would catch things like that…

Overall, I am happy to finally get my B.S. but as far as career possibilities go, I think the B.S. from TUI alone won’t get me very far. I was lucky enough to get into my current career based on experience alone. I fully plan on applying for a Master’s program this year but it certainly won’t be from an online school. The lucky thing is that TUI is technically still WASC accredited until March, which means that Stanford (The grad school I’m applying to) will accept then as my undergrad. If I am accepted, it will by no means be a result of my “education” from TUI but from my skills in computer science and my experience in the industry.

Review:

Trident University is a TOP NOTCH school that allows one to earn their degree by grading their understanding and articulation of the background reading and writing ability and understanding of the subject matter material.  One must do their diligent research and be able to articulate an intelligent understanding of this via. Case Studies and Session Long Projects including class discussion or threaded discussions.  There are no tests or quizzes.  This eliminates the need to memorize useless facts and emphasizes the whole understanding of the subject matter and is graded fairly, accurately and with the application of the appropriate level of difficulty (e.g. Freshman, Sophomore, Junior or Senior).  One must demonstrate their own mastery of the material by their own writing ability and be able to articulate this understanding inside 5 modules each with 2 essays and a class discussion (Threaded Discussion).

Let's be honest, Trident is an on-line University; however, that doesn't mean you cannot get a formal education, it just takes greater effort, committment and support. If  you have a busy life and the traditional "brick-mortar" institutions just don't fit, I highly suggest Trident University. They provided me the avenue to fulfill and life long dream of completing a degree. As a retired Navy Corpsman and from a family of 15 siblings, college seemed a distant dream, but I did it and so can you! I finished my BS in 2005 and my Masters (MSHS) in 2010 and still taking classes!! Excellent learning medium, professional support administratively as well as the Professors. I cannot say enough good things about Trident. Give me a chance, listen to them, listen to me I am a living example that you can do it! I have a GREAT career managing a medical laboratory and my satisfaction level is off the chart! I highly suggest you go to college and if you do give Trident University a call.

Trident University International is the most educational online institution. Everything about the school works for the military student. WARNING!!!!!No books, but that doesn't make it easy.  It means you must obtain your own research materials.  No tests, tests are replaced by 10 research papers and 5 online discussion threads which the student must participate in, per course.  Quite frankly, researching and articulating theories have resulted in deeper learning and understanding for me than just memorizing for a test. This program has taught me how to compose my papers and synthesize my research, ultimately making me a better scholarly writer and preparing me for my next educational program. What can I say about Trident….Challenging school, inexpensive, the faculty and staff are all very educated and invested in the university's success… I cannot say enough about TUI.

I was generally happy with the program. You get out of it what you put into it and it does require discipline. The difference between online education and traditional classroom education is the real life interaction. Technology can help bridge that gap to a degree. Given my career online was the only option open to me. They are serious during the dissertation phase you can't just "wing it" you need to be serious and can't be thin skinned. I was able to get my actual degree from Touro University International which I think improved my chance of using the degree in academia. I think Trident is still establishing itself after the purchase. They are catering to Military groups more heavily now than when I enrolled in 2003. As I said all and all not bad.

I am seeking a different school for the fact they are likely to lose their accreditation and the military no longer acknowledges their degree plans as a means to a commission.  Initially I was quite impressed with this University until I tried to transfer my degree to a different Graduate University.  Now Trident University International is holding my transcripts hostage.  As they face potential loss of accreditation due to poor record keeping the school refuses to forward my transcript as I apply for Grad School.  They keep adding schools I have attended to the list of previous transcripts they require in order to release my transcript.  Even though they already had on record all transcripts from schools which they transferred in to meet my course requirements for my BSHS degree.  I graduated over 2 years ago and now they want me to provide other previous transcripts.  They willingly took my fee for the transcript but have continued to delay sending my transcript.  I understand the dilemma they have placed themselves in by not requiring this before I enrolled and graduated.  But to now hold my transcript hostage as they seek out every student who has attended and try and get all of their previous transcripts is ridiculous.

What can I say about this institution but outstanding!  Everything about the program works for the active/military student.  The faculty works with your military schedule (late?  So what, submit at your own schedule during the course).  Fees? As inexpensive as a graduate school can be, truly economical.  No books, but that doesn't make it easy.  It means you must obtain your OWN research material and do not rely on the course-provided links if you expect to pass.  No tests, but that makes it harder, tests are replaced by 10 research papers and 5 online discussion threads which the student must particpate in, per class.  If you think writing graduate level papers is easier than taking tests, you're a freak (SMILE).  Quite frankly, researcing and articulating theories results in deeper learning and understanding than just memorizing for a test.  I still recall many elements of all of my classes at TUI because I had to engage in research for each.  This is not easy, especially if you are military or holding down a job because facing a research paper after a long day at work is exhausting.  Challenging school, inexpensive, great teachers who work with the students, I cannot say enough about TUI.

I attended TUI for 18 months to finish my BSBA.  There are no tests.  The course assignments consist primarly of essays, with each class divided into six modules.  Each module requires two essays and participation in a threaded discussion. How much you do or do not learn is entirely up to you.  If you want to slack off, turn in substandard work and ease through the courses, you can.  If you want to thoroughly research your material, write good essays and learn the course material, you can.  Instructor feedback isn't usually very good, the course materials tend to be dated, and grades are extremely generous.  You can attend this school, earn your degree and learn nothing, or learn everything you need for success.  It's your choice, and your responsibility to learn the course objectives.

I was a 2006 PhD graduate. I essentially went full-time for five years. It was the single most challenging thing I've ever accomplished in my life. I my international research has since inspired others. I am a full-time Associate Professor of Business in Texas at a renowned university. Was granted tenure this year. You will only succeed in this method of education if you have self-discipline and a thirst for knowledge. I not only learned a lot about how to research and about my research focus, but I learned a lot about myself. This is no degree mill. The professors are resident at many top universities in the country with a core staff of professors at the central campus. Like any university, I found some courses tougher than others and some professors tougher than others. But overall, I was pretty impressed with the credentials and experience of my professors and the rigor of the academics. While I work full-time at a Texas university, I was invited to teach part-time in Trident University's MBA program and I have thoroughly enjoyed working with my MBA students, many of them deployed military. I maintain high standards and rigor. I've read here that some find they are able to cheat the system. Yes, I've had a few students attempt to submit plagiarized work. Some try, many are caught at it and a few probably even succeed at it. Happens here in Texas where I teach as well. But, students only cheat themselves in the end and I do not see student cheating as a flaw that can be assigned to this university. More a flaw in those particular students.

I will be graduating with a ITM degree from Trident. I would recommend the school for anyone looking for a Bachelor or Master degree. The program isn't perfect (what is anymore?) but the program is worth it. My one drawback on the school is that all the reading material is through on-line links and some of the links really did not have a lot to do with the assignment. The school supplied links were usually enough to get you headed in the general direction and I found myself doing a lot of research on my own. But I guess that is what it is all about right? Researching and learning. A certain search website whose name means a huge number became my best friend the last year and a half. All in all it was a great experience.

One comment concerning the Ph.D. Health Sciences dissertation phase. I was unable to complete my dissertation at this university. They refused to allow me to do a case study based on the history of health sciences in the Hebrew Scriptures (Tanakh).  Specifically, I wanted to researching the Levitical Code &  priesthood in terms of them being the proto-public health inspectors of antiquity. They actually insisted on a it being a researched-based rather than an historical case study. I believe it was due to the fact that TUI was a relatively new school (1998) and they were afraid this type of work might not pass academic muster.

I am in the dissertation phase at TUIU. I must say that I have been pleased with my education, because I put in a lot of time and aimed to learn from the materials. The structure of each course is awesome. However, the quality was sometimes an issue (broken links, typos). I like that the materials get to the point, for the most part. I was only impressed with two professors. However, I have high expectations. If you are the type of student who wants to be given the material, assignments, get in and get out, then TUIU is the school for you. If you need coaching, prodding and handholding, then you may want to look elsewhere. I loved the fact that everyone has to have at least a 3.5 GPA (not 3.0) to be accepted into the PhD program. The students were higher quality and committed. I did not want to take entrance exams, as they do not prove that I can or cannot succeed in the PhD program. Like anything, if you put in the time, READ, do the work, manage your time wisely and strive to earn your degree (not to be given your degree), then you can and do well. TUIU was the right choice for me. It, like any institution, is not for everyone. If you want to learn, you can and will. TUIU is very different from other institutions, personally, but that's the difference that I was looking for. I would hold the value of what I learned in this program up to any other institution and believe that I can compete with the best of the best! You can obtain quality education from “non-name brand” and there is good and bad that can be said about ANY institution. None is perfect and you have to go where you feel most comfortable. Let’s face it, in today’s economy, you must know your stuff to compete, regardless of where you decide to earn your degree. If I had to do it all over again, I would choose TUIU and my dissertation chair, again and again! TUIU has served my purpose and met my needs.

Completed a PhD in Health Sciences from TUI. I have undergraduate and graduate degrees in Nursing from large, well known universities. After completing my degree at TUI I felt prepared to conduct scientific research in my speciality area. A world renowned teaching hospital/university must have felt that way as well. I was offered and accepted a T-32 National Research Service Award (Post Doctoral Research Fellowship). My interviewers were impressed with the coursework and level of rigor at TUI. I made a good decision by attending TUI.

Great school with the exception of writing papers for every assignment.  There's more to offer in education besides reviewing websites and writing about a subject.  There are a couple of simulations but there needs to be more.  The school is great if you don't want quizzes or mid-terms.  It's a self-paced school that works great for a hectic schedule.  The one thing you will learn...  How to type a paper, APA style and the use of great references.

Enrolled in TUI at a recommendation from my educational counselor.  The content is fairly standard compared to other institutions except the sheer number of papers you have to write - definitely not unexpected from an online college with a good reputation.  The only problem I have is with the clarity of student expectations.  On a couple of assignments I was graded poorly twice while strictly following directions.  Apparently the instructor expected information that wasn't provided in the assignment's description or expectations.  This may be small to some, but as my first class taken returning to close my BSCS degree, I'm really put off about continuing my courses at TUI.

Case based education utilizing peer reviewed research. Far advanced from the old text book, which is four years out of date by the time it reaches the students hand. If you need someone to hold your hand, this (or any other online school) is probably not for you. Check out the dissertations on Proquest from TUI doctoral candidates. Clearly the same rigor as any brick and mortar school.

TUI offered me an education that matched my every need as a mom, military spouse, and teacher.  Some of my professional development courses transferred over and I received credit when planning my degree outline.  They guided me through every step, from applying for financial aid when I first enrolled to class to the final steps toward graduation.  

The student support staff reached out to me by phone and email to check on my progress and inspired me to finish.  I dealt with the same people consistently and felt very connected to my TUI team.  The professors there challenged me with enriching and thought-provoking topics and I am a better teacher for it.   

The module time frames were not too short and not too long.  I had plenty of time to finish my assignments and enjoyed taking my time to read all the material I needed to in order to write a quality paper.  My grades reflected my work.  I would recommend TUI for someone like me--someone who already has a family, a career, and a military spouse...clearly someone who has minimal time for herself, not to mention graduate school.  

My husband, who is active duty Navy, is also going through TUI to earn his Bachelors in Business Management.  He and I have long conversations about what he is learning and I am really impressed with what he walks away with.  TUI really came through for me and I am so grateful that I have my Master of Arts in Education from them.  It is so worth it.

Touro University International was found in 1998, in 2007 the school was sold to Summit Partners and changed it's name to TUI.  I started my degree program around the beginning of 2005 and graduated in the fall of 2008.  I have found Touro/TUI to be one of the best values for online education especially for a military member such as myself.  One of the benefits to the school has to be the learning model.  Over the course of a 12 week class you are provided with case and session based assignments that challenge you to apply real world thinking to your project.  The schools threaded discussions ensure returnable collaboration on a certain issue that can fully lead to innovation, creation and understanding of new ideas from other students.  Additionally, a review of all professor credentials will show that all Touro/TUI professors have backgrounds and education from traditional brick and mortar schools.  While the school seems to be continuing it's evolution and in the next 7 years the school will be celebrating it's 20 year anniversary, I see this TUI breaking new ground for the future.

As an active duty military member, husband and father of five, I chose TUI based on the cost, convenience, and the fact that they were regionally accredited ( I'd read enough horror stories to stay away from national accreditations). My initial motivation was to find a school I could stick with from beginning to end, throughout deployments and unusual work schedules, etc.  What I eneded up with was a degree from a school that I found challenged me at every turn.  I got very good grades most of the time, but I can honestly say that I earned every one of them.  When my work was not top-drawer, my grades reflected that. The professors inspired me to continue with my education throughout - one especially who, whiloe still early in my pursuit of a bachelor's degree - told me that he thought I should absolutely seek to earn a Master's in a particular subject. In fact, I believe he said it would be a crime if I didn't. The support staff was always very helpful, including making calls to my home on many occasions to answer my questions. The Financial Aid staff was always helpful, too. When I had to switch from one type of tuition payment to another, they did the majority of the work for me. They did everything they could to make the financial side of my education painless, so I could concentrate on my classes. Overall, a great experience.

Review:

Before choosing Touro University International (TUI), I researched pretty much all of the MBA programs that were offered online. TUI appeared to be the most beneficial for me do to cost, flexibility, and being 100% online accessible.
When I first saw that the assignments for each module consisted of writing 3-5 page, I wondered if this was just a diploma mill. However once I started the research and writing, I found that in order to fully answer the questions posed, most of my assignments turned into 20+ page papers.
As others say, you get what you put into it. If you choose to try and answer in 3-5 pages you will find your answers lacking and will be graded appropriately. However, if you want to learn you will find yourself doing more in-depth research, rather than just reading the material provided. Yes, some of the links on the CDs do not work; however Google is a wonderful tool. If you want to learn, you will find the information you need. To me, this is a better method than textbooks. Texts are slow and costly to update. By using current articles (either by CD, link, or research) you are provided up to date information, research, and opinions. I actually rarely used the links on the CDs, I usually researched more current articles available online. I feel this provided me a greater breadth of available knowledge.
The instructors are available when you need them. I never had to wait more than a day to receive a response. Their feedback is generally very helpful. However, I did have one instructor who was not as helpful as the others (out of 16 courses); but there are poor instructors at every school. The fact that only 1 in 16 at TUI was lacking is a whole lot better than the ratio at San Diego State where I did my Bachelor's work, there it was 1 in 16 who were good. Or at Florida Institute of Technology where I did my Project Management degree, only about 50% of their instructors satisfied me. I am extremely satisfied with TUI's professors.
I find that my MBA knowledge is far superior to those I know who have earned degrees at other non-resident or part-time programs. Of course it is hard to rival a resident degree, but TUI is superior to any other non-resident program I have observed.
For the poster who claims that a "friend" turned in his paper at another university and received an "F", I see many flaws in his scenario. First, universities catalog papers now. It was likely that his "friend" got caught plagiarizing. Second, was the topic even comparable? Third, what is the poster angry about? Is he making up a story to try and discredit the university? I see no credibility to his argument. More often on sites like this we see someone who is angry about something (bad grade maybe?) and slams the school. I would look at the totality of reviews and discard those outliers.
Bottom line: you won't be disappointed with TUI, if you put the effort in to learn. This is the same with any program of instruction.

I want to speak about this university from experience. I completed a PhD degree at Touro University in the period where it was sold and its name changed.

Before undertaking this degree, I had written two popular books and run a small business. I earned undergraduate degrees in France and Germany and an MBA in Canada, all at established universities. I also worked at the local McDonald's to help pay the bills and provide for my family. I simply could not afford to go half way around the world again to earn another degree. As an accredited university, TUI offered an attractive alternative.

They made me work ‘very’ hard for my degree. They also allowed me to gain valuable work experience, first as a graduate assistant and later as an assistant professor. I admit I was one of those instructors others here have complained about as grading “generously”...why not? I felt it was my job to encourage students and there is really very little difference between students anyways that 5 or 6 categories of grades would not cover. In short, I treated students as I wished to be treated – with respect!!! It comes as no surprise though, if a student did not hand in the assignment(s) requested, they flunked the course.

Yes, the university is now for profit but investigate further who it’s associated with it before making negative blanket assumptions. Did you know that one of the investment partners of Summit Partners, which owns TUI University, is Notre Dame University? There are many other big name partners too associated with this partnership, Google “Summit Partners” for the names of other s. For me personally, this association alone balanced the for- profit aspects of the university, which I too do not favor.

An on-line education is primarily for disciplined learners. They realize it’s the process that teaches you to follow an established order of steps to accomplish goals. Mature learners realize that by following these, you are most likely to succeed with any other goals you establish.

Has TUI helped me? Professionally, I now work as a senior technical writer for an on-line provider of business education. In terms of contract work, I have the ability to pick and chose assignments. Next summer I will have completed the first of three musicals, each with a research component attached to it to further my investigation of consumer behavior – my small company will be releasing these and you will definitely see the university’s name mentioned proudly in the introduction. True, I am a hard worker anyways but it’s all about the process learned. If you are a motivated person who wants control over your learning environment and not needing to have an instructor looking over your shoulder all the time to produce, TUI is likely right for you. It worked for me and my family!

They are interested in as many military students as they can get - because it is guaranteed money. I think it has a lot of things to work out. I've heard it is actually going for an AACSB accreditation (which is good).

I've had a good experience at TUI.  The method of instruction it uses forces students to research and find current and relevant information.  I like the fact that they put more emphasis on being able to comprehend and articulate knowledge through writing than on memorizing answers for a test.

Some negative postings make it seem like the only good colleges are those in which professors make things complicated or where you have to set yourself back financially.  I am skeptical of people who believe that high cost and difficulty makes for good learning. A sign of intelligence in my opinion is being able to find the simplest and most effective means to reach goals.   

I am now on my final class to earn a bachelor's from TUI.  I have gone to a traditional college as well.  The instruction I got at TUI has been excellent.  It is designed for self motivated individuals who know how to find answers.

A university's reputation is built by its alumni. The great schools out there are great because those who graduated did great things in the world.  The school is still relatively new.  I am confident that as TUI becomes more established, the alumni it produces will add to the school's reputation.

I am a firm believer that success comes from hard work, character and the ability to seize opportunities regardless of the universty you go to.

I just completed my MBA.  As a military person you cannot beat the tuition.  I earned a regionally accredited graduate degree with no out-of-pocket expense.  As with most things in life you get what you pay for and there is no free lunch. Facilitator feedback was minimal if at all and I always got A's although I know my papers were not "A" quality.  Administrative support is very minimal.  Material for the class is subpar and consists of CD's and web downloads (no book expenses is a plus but the quality is abysmal).  A handful of resident employees design the curriculum and adjuncts facilitate, if you want to call it that.  Much of the material provided in the course is outdated, although I must admit that fundamental business concepts do not change.  You may find yourself repeating a lot of the information throughout the program.  They like to hang their hat on WASC accreditation, however that is a function of the school's locale not its quality.  Bottom line, I love online education.  I have only completed one year of school on the ground.  All of my degrees were completed with an online component.  There is what online learning could be and then there is what we currently have.  In order to compete with brick and mortar institutions, online concerns have to pick up the quality and quit trying to save a buck here and there to enhance profits.  That is where I feel TUI is weak.  If you just need a regionally accredited graduate degree for advancement, this school is for you.  If you want to be held to high academic standards and work for your degree, pass this one up.  I requested a degree conferral letter and the one that the college provided looked like a third grader wrote it.  My follow on institution would not accept it and made me wait for the degree to finalize.

WARNING!!!!
There is a good amount of research for each paper.  You have to write two papers of various lengths that are due every two weeks. 

At TUI University one can expect to search the online libraries for much of the material.  One will have to write thought provoking papers versus taking the traditional exams. But that's the point.  I was not spoon fed, and I got out of it exactly what I needed. So if you are looking at taking a test at the end of the course this college is not for you!! 


As long as you like writing papers and doing research then TUI University is a great university.  I know that my writing has improved since my professor gave me great feedback so I was enabled to improve. That being said, I think that TUI is a very good value for the money.

I recommend TUI to anyone looking for an online education. TUI is not perfect, but in all fairness, I think benefits outweigh the downfalls.

After reading all of the attached views, I have found truth in many of the claims (both positive and negative). TUI is currently the only online university that is accredited by the Western Association of Schools & Colleges. (Same accreditation as UCLA or Berkeley, for that matter) TUI has a great price point in comparison to many other universities. The due dates are somewhat flexible and the professors are always eager to help.

With that said, the material is not always up to date, but it is improving. I took a Java class over a year ago and failed because of similar reasons that someone else mentioned. The course was not setting anyone up for success, it was confusing, difficult to comprehend, and had a horrible work flow. Not to mention the share of dead links is highly frustrating.

With that said, a year later I have since re-taken some courses and TUI has made a very strong effort for improving their curriculum. The courses seem to all be in the process of rewrites and this time around they make sense. TUI has set up online material so that problems like dead links can be quickly corrected, and furthermore the assignments (for the most part) deal with relative studies.

I think choosing TUI is great choice, but in doing so you must be ready for a different approach to learning, and understand the difficulties that come with an online education. Graduating from TUI takes strong willpower and solid writing skills.

Outstanding School and education!

I have to tell you, I was very hesitant to get my online degree, because of fear of falling for a "diploma mill". I got my AA from Thomas Edison State College in Trenton, NJ and then decided on TUIU because of the flexibility it offered. If you think the workload is easy, think again. I loved the faculty as well as the student body. I am so excited that I finished my BSBA and I will continue towards my MBA also at TUI this fall. I did my research and one of the number one priorities for me was that the school HAD to be REGIONALLY ACCREDITED, which TUI is. Aside from the name, which I agree is cheesy, TUI University is the best choice for online schooling that I ever made. If you have specific ??'s about the school email me at navcruitatl1@yahoo.com. I recommend TUIU to EVERYONE!

After completing Issues in Terrorism, I'm ready for my summer session to begin.  My classmates made inciteful comments during the online discussions.  They all seemed to have different levels of experience from military to civilian in the health care industry.  Since I'm specializing in Terrorism I believe this along with my experience is gonna put me in a great position to get a job as an EM analyst or trainer.  TUI is a top notched school.

I also completed a BS with a well-konown residency based university but my Touro degree was most useful for job purposes. Only thing I dislike is the name change.

I just started here at TUI and I would have to say that the program is not to bad.  I have attended to other regional accredited degree programs for graduate studies.  The reason I move over to TUI was due to cost!  I am active duty and attending TUI is cost effective for my family and me.

There are no textbooks for the courses.  Therefore, you cannot build up a library of resources. Your courses are via CD-rom.

There are no test! 

There is a good amount of research for each paper.  You have to write two papers of various lengths that are due every two weeks.  This is difficult for some but for others this is a nice way to complete work.


Yes, some of the links they provide are dead.  However, they tell you that you are to research the information and provide updated information.  Therefore, the courses stay up to date.  In addition, you are still responsible to find update information.

As long as you like writing papers and doing research then TUI University is a great university.  I know that my writing is improving every time I submit a paper.  My Professor has given me great feedback and this helps me to improve.

Overall, I would recommend the University to other students especially military student because of the cost effectiveness.

I am sorry, but I have NOTHING good to say about this university. After completion of my second semester will try my luck with "CAPELLA". This university uses ONLY out dated links for their teaching material and some of them were dead links. Two times I had to notify the prof./institution that the links were dead.

The CSC 113 course is a joke and can ONLY be taken if one has prior programming experience!! Please do not believe them if they tell you otherwise! Even though I have a 4.0 GPA I do not understand the material that I have read, nor do I have the time to understand it, because I pace at which we are suppose to hand in our Modules (every 2 weeks) is to short for the material given to us. The professors are a joke also. Three times now I have ask for specific help. I even took time to color code my code that I wanted the professor to correct and he just gave me a general answer back without addressing my question, which was a waste of my time. It does not help if the professors answer your questions fast, if they do not look at the contents. I wrote what in my mind should have been a 3.0, because I did not have the time to correctly hand in my assignment, but they gave me a 4.0 and I did not understand the half of what I did.

I wonder if somebody that works with TUI wrote the good comments about their school in the hopes to sucker some students in. The bottom line is that your education is an investment for life and it should be taking seriously by an institution that at least provides you with some of their own material from their own professors and just some links that they found that come close to the subject they want to teach. I found more useful information over the subjects they wanted to teach me in youtube! I expected more from a Regional accredited university and you should to!

I will not recommend TUI for doctoral level studies.  The school can teach very well and you can learn something useful.  However, their dissertation support is dismal at best.   They often feel you are disturbing them when you call for assistance.   They expect you to register session after session post coursework phase and they only respond once every session if any.  The support level for their PhD program is shameful.

I will not hesitate to recommend the school for Bachelors and Masters level work.  For doctoral level work NO unless you want to work alone, get frustrated and possibly quit.  At that time, your money is gone.  I have two friends there now and they do not get support from their committee or the school.  TUI needs to improve in their dissertation support.  Despite what they say on their web site, the support level for dissertation is probably one of the worst any where.

TUI is not a university for the lazy,undisciplined or faint of heart.  As a few fellow posters pointed it, it starts out easy, but by the last few papers you are really getting your moxy's worth, and whether or not you learn anything depends entirely on you.  

I decided on TUI after having horrible experiences with AMU and UOP,as a matter of fact I almost gave up entirely on online institutions, until a colleague mentioned TUI, and I have never looked back or regretted my decision to attend.  

Online colleges are alot like life.  They are about choices.  Some choices will take you further than you want to go.  Keep you longer than you want to stay and cost you more than you want to pay.  So you have to choose wisely.

I am extremely satisfied with my degree program at TUI (hate the name BTW).  Unlike a previous poster's experience, I use the topics I have learned on a daily basis in management.  I found the areas of marketing and finance particularly challenging (as did many of my colleagues).  This school just as challenging as Florida State University where I recieved my undergraduate degree.  Did I have to search the online libraries for much of the material?  YES.  Did I have to write thought provoking papers versus taking the traditional exams?  YES...But that's the point.  I was not spoon fed, and I got out of it exactly what I needed.  The flexibility of working anytime and anywhere far outweighed the downsides of an online program, and TUI's faculty exceeded my expectations.  I think that too many times, really naiive people seek a definitive and direct connection between their scholastic world and the real working world without realizing that the concepts and development of critical thinking are what are truly important.  I will recommend TUI to anyone who belives an in-residence program will not mee their needs.

TUI University is the most educational online college. The instructors really promote learning and are committed to excellence. All of my instructors were committed to my excellence and were very hard on my assignments at the Master's level. I completed my Bachelor's degree with Touro when it was 'International' and they were a little less strict on the grading but overall committed to my education. The instructors that I had in the BSHS program became my mentors--particularly Dr. Legg and Dr. Rhynders. When I enrolled in the MSHS program after graduation they were right there for me. They guided me through the program, research, and information dissemination. They also taught me how to compose my papers and synthesize my research. They also spent their personal time advising me on the CHES exam and how to apply my education to pass the exam. I decided not to buy the study guide for the national certification and instead focused on the teachings, advice, and study material they personally wrote for me IN MY STYLE OF LEARNING. I passed the exam with a 93% out of 100%. We are still friends and they both are encouraging me to enroll in the Ph.D. program. Also, Dr. Neumann sends me inquiry emails about my success and lifestyle changes.

I am a military spouse and they gave me a big discount on my courses. Ms. Kaing in FA also walked me through all funding sources every semester. They were sure to mail me all documentation with postage paid envelopes. They also always followed up with me concerning due dates, paperwork, and FAFSA.

By no means is anything perfect, but Touro toes the line and they are invested in their students and education. They faculty and staff are all very educated and invested in the university's success. I did not graduate on time due to an instructor knowing my potential and demanding it of me. He refused to accept anything less than excellence and actually failed me! I had to re-take the course and you had better believed I did the work and was rewarded. I have since landed my dream job as a Community Health Executive Director and it is fabulous. I am rewarded every single day by what I do and Touro University is responsible for helping me to achieve my educational goals. Hats off TUI!!

Review:

I entered the doctoral program after completing bachelors and masters degrees at very large, well known, in-residence schools. I had been working in my profession for 4-5 years, and still had the GI bill to use, but no local programs that were in my specialty.

At the time I enrolled, Touro was the only college/university with a fully accredited PhD that could be pursued regardless of where I lived. I did classes part time until I was ready to do my dissertation, so it took me many years to finish. To those considering TUI University, here are some things to consider.

You have to be focused. It is easy to get behind if you don't keep track of the deadlines. They do their best to stay in touch, but keep in mind you are geographically isolated from the faculty members and other students because of the type of learning environment. Like all classes, you get out of them what you put into them.

The dissertation phase is very stressful, because a) you are isolated as before, doing something much more rigorous than a senior paper or a master's thesis; b) they expect a great deal from you because this program is still in its (relative) infancy, and they want it to continue to become more respectable and acceptable. They will hammer you (as kindly as possible) to make sure that when your dissertation goes to defend and then on to UMI/Proquest it will make you, them, and Touro look good. Which is as it should be, really.

The "owners" changed hands while I was finishing the dissertation, so I don't know how "TUI University" will be different from "Touro University International", but I doubt it will differ much from what I have seen.

It really was a long hard road. But I did learn what I asked to be taught, and it was worth every penny.

I am in my second year of the International Health Science PhD program, after getting an MS from a different on-line institution.  Since I'm not in the military, my classes cost a LOT, and the price just went way up.  But regardless of the cost, I am concerned that this program doesn't offer the amount of mentorship or collaborative experience/support that my MS program provided.  At a PhD level, I find this very frustrating and a major drawback to TUI.  Most of the classes have been interesting, but I easily make "A"s even when I don't really understand the information.  This concerns me since I'll have my orals coming up and I also need to know how to apply the information during my dissertation work.  Although I like the flexibility of the program, I would probably go to a brick/mortar school if there was something in my area.  Since there isn't, I'm settling for TUI.

Sure I'd listen to the lectures on the cd, complete all of the modules and session long projects and I even graduated with honors. But then again there are no tests to take at TUI. To me all of the course work was just there to keep TUI from being called a degree mill. If the education at TUI is so good I'd like to know what percentage of TUI faculty is sending their own children to the school? The good thing is that the military paid for every cent of this degree.

I am half way throught the MBA program with TUI University.  I think that the flexibility of this program is unparalleled compared to other brick and mortar and online schools.  I do agree that their grading is a little on the easy side, but at the same time, I have to say that the way that the classes are structured forces you to learn a great deal.  I know I have learned much while enrolled.  I went to Baylor University for my undergrad and compared to TUI I would say that Baylor is a better institution education wise.  However, when you compare almost $30,000 a year to about $9750 a year TUI blows other institutions out of the water.  I also believe that TUI is a better institution than some state schools do to the fact that I knew people at the University of Texas that would only go to 3 classes a semester in a course and still recieve B's and A's.  

It also stands to says that unless you are graduating from an ivy league or other prestigious school, most employers don't care where you come from as long as you have a degree from an accredited institution.

That being said, I think that TUI is a very good value for the money.  Now if they would just change their name to something that doesn't sound like a diploma mill everything would be perfect.

This is my fifth term with TUI and I have to say overall it’s a good school, and I have attained new knowledge because of the classes I have participated in. I also have taken classes at other institutions and have to say that over all it’s on par with most online schools. Are they easy graders I think they could be tougher but the truth of the matter is most adult schools go easy on the grades because they take into account life experiences, family life etc. TUI is properly accredited by WACS, this is a regional accrediting agency and this type of regional accreditation is highly prized by colleges. A regionally accredited degree can be transferred to almost any school, and if your grades and GRE’s are good enough you will be able to get into a good grad school. One last note if your looking for a Yale, Harvard, NYU or any other ivy league education TUI might not be for you, but last time I checked Yale didn’t offer classes for $750.00 each nor do they offer online degrees that fit within an busy adults lifestyle.
