Just graduated and I am still working on a complaint I had against an instructor almost 4 months ago. Many instructors are quite helpful, but there are quite a few who aren't and unfortunately those FEW really affect your experience! -I was out having a child that came early and ...

I'll sum it real simply: 1. Poor communication: -Teachers were very unwilling to help me out with assignments, and/or didn't not post their "help" until after the assignment was due. -They don't negotiate or give you an extension on homework even if your on a business trip (oh the counsellors ...
MAED, E-Education

I found the majority of the faculty to be exceptional, professional faculty. Many of the faculty taught at other esteemed colleges and universities and were published professional educators. Any faculty issues I did encounter, I know I would have encountered far more at ground campus'. I would never have had ...

I'm currently studying for my Masters Degree in Elementary Education. I find that overall I've learned quite a bit along with improving my writing skills - UoP students have several writing assignments per week. I'd have to agree with some other posters in saying that I find the entire "learning ...

Go somewhere else! As a graduate student, I expected to have intructors with advanced graduate degrees. Instead I got instructors who had Masters Degrees from...you guessed it, UoP. I would turn in a 1300 word paper, and have it returned to me the next day with an A. I know for a fact that it was not truly graded, if even read.
Now I am in debt 10000 for nothing!
The financial advisors are impossible to contact. In fact, some are completely rude.
My advisor was switched 4 times in 3 months. I finally left UoP to go to another online school. My new school is amazing and a completely different experience. I feel like I am truly learning!!!
