Review:

I have three terms left.  They have changed policy midstream effectively cutting the term from six months to four 1/2 months (not notifying students until five days after the policy change).  Advertise go at your own pace but now if you do not make the deadline you have set four months earlier, they charge you $60.00 after four weeks if you are late.  The problem is they can take up to two weeks to grade a paper and send it back for a small correction, then another two weeks to grade again.  The worst thing is that they left a message today basically saying they can do what they want, thanked everyone for the feedback but they didn't care and were sticking to what they decided.  They keep denying they've cut the time of the term.  We aren't stupid out there,it's not true just because they say it is.  They have basically cheated their students and not lived up to their promises.  There is talk of suing them but I bet they checked with their lawyers before they did this.  I gave the school a value of 9 because a degree is worth a lot to me.

They don't have the right to mess with our dreams and goals do they?
