Review:

Personally this school worked for me.  I had a couple two year degrees, already had worked in IT for 15 years, and needed a bachelors and this format clinched it. Married with kids, the on-line format and 5 week classes were perfect. Finished in a little over two years.
There is little or no testing; that may be good or bad depending on who you are. Lots of reading; I'd suggest buying the books from Amazon as opposed to the on-line library. Good for reference later on too. Lots of papers to write and participation; you can learn alot from your classmates and instructors; who are really just people like you that work in the field. Learning Teams are hit or miss; find a good group and stick together from class to class, and don't put up with free loaders. It is what it is. Not for the kid right out of high school, but for working adults who need a degree; and have tuition reimbursement benefits; not a bad choice IMO.
