I completed the California Pacific University Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) degree. It's an excellent value and extremely well-designed.

Not accredited, won't refund, won't let me finish

Review:

I couple of years ago I wanted to finish my degree. I spoke with several people at Kennedy Western University who assisted me with enrollment and lead me to believe that they were an accredited college. They even advised me that most employers would refund tuition because they were recongnized as a higher institute of learning. Their website even indicated they were accredited at the time I signed up. NO longer states that. 

My mother became ill shortly after my enrollment. Her illness progressed and she passed away. I contacted the admissions office and explained my situation. They advised me that I would become inactive and once I was ready to complete my studies they would reactivate my status. Since that time the school changed their name and their programs. I was never notified by the school about this change until I attempted to log on to my student website. Since then I've even learned that my program is no longer being offerred and will not be supported after January 2009.

I called the school several weeks ago and requested my status be reinstated (since I never withdrew from the school and tuition $7500 was paid in full via Sallie Mae Student Loan). I was referred to a 'resolution committee coordinator' who advised me that my program had changed and would no longer be available as of January 2009 (6 months from now). She then stated she would refer me to another counselor who would be getting in touch with me in 2-4 weeks for reinstation purposes. I never heard back so I began emailing and calling. Several phones calls to 'voicemails' were made and no return calls. Several emails sent with no response. This went on for several weeks. I finally reached someone in the front office who advised me that the person I was referred to no longer worked for the school so I was referred back to the original coordinator.

They stole my money

Review:

Please please please do not enroll at Warren National University. I had terrible experience right from day one from the enrollment until I started the first course. I gave benefit of doubt when I had sour experience with their student counselor. 

I decided to withdraw in the first four weeks and sent a request to reimburse 50% of the fee I paid. They said they will send response in 2 weeks. I made several follow ups and now it is almost 5 months and there is no response. I don't know how to get my money back.

Their admin, faculty, supervisor are not professional. I am very disappointed with their response. The reason I wanted to withdraw was that they had their previous university KWU information on student’s portal. Most of the information they had on the students section were outdated and not relevant to the course I selected. It did not motivate me to continue further.

It is not a professional setting. We are burning our money. There are quite a few other universities out there with high quality student service and curriculum structure at less price compared to Warren. Please do good homework before you sign up. Don't repent after the fact like me - I lost $3000.

You get out of it what you put into it.

I am in the process of working toward a Ph.D. at WNU. It seems to provide a solid curriculum. As for the quality, you get out of it what you put into it. That is with any school. I've attended two very prestigious schools that are accredited and the same held true there.

Review:

Warren National University offers credit to your work experience and allows you to complete the program in less time. They assisted me to take appropriate courses and set a plan to reach academic success. This is a great start, great program, great university for working personal. The courses help me to learn and apply them at work. I recommend this university for busy working professionals who wants to further enhance their skills to take complete control of their career.

Touro University International

Review:

Touro University International (TUI) is an "OUTSTANDING" Distance Learning University, I had previously been  enrolled in three other "Brick and Mortar" colleges, and must admit that I did quite well in their programs.  

But, I absolutely swear to anyone that the online cirriculum, experienced professors and great support that I have received from TUI is "Head and Shoulders" above the rest.  

Being a career U. S. Serviceman with with years of time away from my home station, there is no better option that Touro University International. 

I would highly recommend this University to anyone; in fact I have already recommended three of my closest friends to them and they are now enrolled. I promise you that if you give them a chance, you won't be disappointed.    

I sincerly hope that this helps someone!

Unusable, unaccredited waste of time

Review:

The Good:  
1.	Kennedy Western / Warren National waived a large amount of my undergraduate requirements.
2.	With so many credits waived, the cost to complete a bachelors was fairy competitive.
3.	Easy, not very challenging “courses”, which are really open book exams that you can fly through with little or no preparation.

The Bad
1.	Unaccredited.
2.	I’ve been unable to find any regionally accredited MBA program to accept my degree.  In a couple cases, I could take a year or two of courses on top of my degree to become eligible for the MBA program.
3.	Many employers will not accept it as a valid degree.  There are some small companies that don’t check, but it has locked me into my current job.  I’m fearful of applying for promotions within my own company as I don’t want any more scrutiny on what I now know to be a dubious degree.

Don’t be taken in by their aggressive sales people and slick marketing materials.  They are unaccredited (but will sell you their irrelevant state license status) and if you are looking for an online option, there are many many legitimate schools out there.

Review:

I am a graduate from Kennedy-Western University and am now enrolled in an MBA program with a regionally accredited university. I do not regret pursuing the education I received from KWU. I am happy to hear they are now going for accreditation. By the way, Oxford University hasn't always been accredited, but that doesn't make it a substandard college. 

I have attended 4 universities - 3 were fully accredited. I worked just as hard through KWU (especially on my final project) as I did at the other universities. Accreditation can make a difference if an institution is lacking in specific areas. Other than KWU not offering study groups and classroom interaction, there was no difference between the level of education I received. In other words, the accredited universities do offer study notes, powerpoint presentations, and chapter summaries.  These types of things have never helped me. I simply have to read the textbook on my own. That's no different from KWU.

I took one class with the Warren National University, before discovering it was the Old Kennedy Western University of Senate Hearing fame with a new coat of paint.  Still unaccredited.  Just a buyer-beware review.
