The class pieces to respond to other classmates as attendance seems more like busy work rather than testing your academics and knowledge.
Working through the financial aspect, there are always delays with FASFA processing and taking too long, therefore needing to take out subsidized loans before class starts when it could have been funded by your grants.
Getting in contact with counselors, or being transferred to multiple departments when you have an issue is extremely disorganized and never completed... Read More in a timely manner.
I would not recommend this school to anyone.
If you have any medical excuses, including giving birth, you do not receive a break or leave. Requesting acceptance for late submissions is very difficult and they only allow 2 weeks. Life happens, and for a large organization that is for improving your education and life, should understand that.

My experience earning a B.S. in Management at the University of Phoenix was overwhelmingly positive, and the program met my expectations and then some. As a working professional, my top priorities were flexibility, generous credit transfer, and the ability to get academic credit for my real-world work experience. The University of Phoenix delivered exceptionally well on all three fronts, making it possible for me to pursue my degree without putting my career on hold.

The curriculum itself was both... Read More challenging and surprisingly up-to-date. I found the coursework to be highly practical, and it directly helped me pivot and determine a new career path. Courses like Project Management, Change Management, and Six Sigma were immediately applicable and provided immense value. While not every class was a perfect fit—a course on media influences didn't quite resonate with me—the vast majority of the program was focused on tangible, real-world management skills.

The instructors were professional and knowledgeable, meeting the expectations for their roles. Where UoPX truly excels is in its online platform. It's arguably one of the best out there; it's intuitive, stable, and clearly designed for students who are balancing school with other commitments.

My final recommendation is this: If you are a working professional who needs to earn a formal credential like a Bachelor's or Master's degree, the University of Phoenix is an outstanding choice. However, if your goal is purely to build a specific skill without the need for a full degree, there are likely more focused and less expensive options available. For my goals, it was the perfect vehicle for success.

I attended Phoenix to break through the glass ceiling holding back career progression. In that regard, it has met the need. In every other regard, I regret enrolling there. The experience I have had with Phoenix however leaves much to be desired. From start to finish, their financial aid office did not have my financial aid sorted out. My various paperwork was always early and frequently turned in during the first half of February at the latest. My tenure involved almost weekly calls involving payment... Read More plans, being terminated from classes, lost payments, electronic payment plans that were billed to the wrong account or stopped for reasons I've still been unable to determine. When I graduated, my bill was squared away. A few months after graduation, they're calling and stating I owe over $1000 to finish out my degree. They're also demanding I present my ID or I won't be able to attend future courses despite the fact that I've told them verbally and via mail I will not be pursuing a masters at that institution. Additionally, I've been requesting that they email concerns rather than call for almost the entire time I've attended as my work schedule was often extremely prohibitive of receiving phone calls. Almost every week, a call to go over how my financials were in error and another request to not contact me via phone. Failure to contact them quickly enough meant more threats to be unenrolled from courses. I've now requested proof of the debt they seem to believe I owe, and their response is to check their portal. And if I do, I'll certainly deal with it, but why was staying enrolled and caught up on tuition so difficult for so long? The level of customer service provided by every department has been so sub par, speaking as someone who worked in a call center to obtain this degree, that I am utterly astounded there have not been mass terminations of their staff. As I informed the last representative I spoke to, they could tell me the sky is blue at this point and I would still not believe they knew and weren't just guessing.

As a single mom, finding a school that fits my unique needs has been a challenge—until I found this one. From the moment I enrolled, I felt supported, understood, and encouraged. The staff has always gone above and beyond to help me navigate everything from class scheduling to financial aid. They truly understand that students come from all walks of life, and they work hard to accommodate those of us balancing parenting, work, and school.

The instructors are knowledgeable, patient, and flexible. They’re... Read More not just teaching—they’re invested in seeing students succeed. I’ve had professors email me extra resources, allow extensions when needed, and check in just to make sure I’m doing okay. That kind of support makes a huge difference.
This school helped me believe in myself again. I’m walking away with more than just credit... I’m leaving with confidence, skills, and a better future for me and my child. I would absolutely recommend this school to anyone, especially single parents who are trying to build a better life. It’s not easy, but with the right support system like this one, it is definitely possible.

The University of Phoenix, by all means, is a good school. When put into perspective why this school came to be what it is, it is for the working adult. We have to make the time that works best for us and use that as an opportunity to learn the material and pass our classes. I make this point because there are comments regarding the teaching style. Yet, many need to remember that as working individuals, we cannot attend classes at a specific time along with other students; this idea defeats the purpose... Read More of the school being for those who need an education path that fits their schedule. Additionally, when it comes to the idea that you do not have a job or did not get the job you wanted, ask yourself, "What did I do apart from the degree?". Did you begin to grow within your field? Or look for internships? Did you try to get certifications along with your degree? These are not the certificates the school offers but actual professional certifications; there is a difference. The University of Phoenix has helped me understand my field more than I thought. The ability to work at my own pace while working a full-time job, sometimes an additional part-time job, works for me and makes sense as to why the coursework is structured the way it is. However, the tuition paid for the degrees does not equal the quality of the institution and degree. Paying the expected price of an established, reputable institution, including the cost of attending in person, does not make sense in the case of attending an online institution, which already has a bad reputation for being called a greedy school. Ultimately, it all depends on what you make of the experience. From the time you start your degree, the extra work and hours you put in apart from it. It makes all the difference after obtaining or while you are in the process of obtaining your degree. It takes more than a degree to get the job.

It was truly the worst mistake of my life choosing this school for my education. My bachelors degree is costing me 55 thousand dollars and I’m teaching myself. There is no instruction from professors. I thought there would be some kind of virtual classroom environment where professors actually teach, but nope. You have your textbooks and your assignments and you’re basically on your own. If you reach out to professors about struggling with the material, you’re met with encouraging words to keep going….... Read More No help with the actual material. I’m not sure what I’m paying for other than access to textbooks and the piece of paper degree, which now I hear isn’t worth much coming from university of phoenix. Apparently employers laugh at degrees from here, so who knows if i’ll even be able to find a job with it. My first 3/4 years were filled with filler classes that had absolutely nothing to do with my degree. I graduate in 11 months and i’m JUST starting to get into classes that have to do with my field. I’ve had some errors occur with the finance department as well. I feel like all college is a scam, but particularly this one. Only out for money.

The curriculum and instructors are great and I would recommend U of Phoenix on those aspects. But I will warn that this is a for-profit school and I had the misfortune of dealing with the financial departments shady and aggressive tactics. I recently re-enrolled to finish my BS and that process went smooth. I had already completed the first week of class when I found they had charged my debit card on file $1194.00. When I called to find out why, I was informed my financial aid didnt go through so... Read More I am now out-of-pocket. I was not informed of this, and it seriously overdrafted my bank account so I went back into the portal to withdraw from my program and remove my card from my account. I knew that I didnt stand a snowballs chance at recovering that money, so I ate it and moved on. Flash forward 4 weeks later and I find ANOTHER $1194 drafted out of my bank account, just as I was recovering from the last charge. Now Im being told I never withdrew, even though I only completed 1 week of the last semester so that in itself shouldve been a system generated withdraw. I demanded my money back and that went nowhere. So I called my bank to dispute, got a credit while they investigated, only to have the charge reappear 2 weeks later because they somehow forced it through and the bank had to allow it, whatever that means. Im still dealing with this issue and had to cancel my debit card so they cant keep charging it (and I have no idea how they were able to charge it the second time, I double checked and that card was successfully deleted from my account).

I think University of Phoenix, is perfect for individuals who have a very busy life. Throughout the time that I was in school, I worked a full time job, tried to take care of things at my household, and was also working on becoming healthier. I was able to do all three things with no negative impact on my grades. They would contact me and make sure I was doing everything in my power to be successful throughout the program. I was inducted into an honor society based on my grade point average and my... Read More major. That was one of my proudest accomplishments to date. I'm very thankful that I decided to go back to school and pursue my degree through University of Phoenix. It is very true when they say they want to help you succeed and will be there for you every step of the way. That's one of the main reasons behind me choosing them as my Graduate School as well.

I just completed my Bachelor's Degree in Accounting, and it was very pleasant - challenging but pleasant. I made many friends during my four years at the University of Phoenix, and I must admit that the advisors and professors were very skilled (most of whom had a CPA or Ph.D. and worked in the field). Overall, I did 40 courses that expanded my knowledge in accounting, finance, economics, and management. However, the time and energy took its toll. In the end, my final GPA was 3.93. My advice to anyone... Read More considering this university is to remember that it is a university. Yes, you have the convenience of it being online; however, it requires a lot of discipline, study and research, personal devotion, and money. Ideal for professionals and people with time constrictions.
