Argosy University Reviews:

PLEASE CONSIDER OTHER SCHOOLS FIRST

Please DO NOT attend this school or program. I wish I would of listened when I heard the horrible reputation of this school. Of the radiology program, only one teacher actually showed that she cared about her students, the others did not care if you passed, failed or actually learned anything. These teachers do not have teaching degrees, therefore they have NO idea how to teach a class. They will just read sentence-for-sentence out of the textbook when lecturing and have extremely high expectations for the tests. If a class is going to be graded so strictly, I don't expect the class to be taught so casually. Very unprofessional, especially when the instructor cannot pronounce simple medical terminology and relys on the students for proper pronouncing to teach the class. The intro class does an extremely poor job to prepare students for the program, leaving them angry. Just come sit in the lunchroom someday and listen to the groups of people around you. It's not just this program that sucks, everybody complains about this school! Theh just want your money! And when you try to drop your classes once you've realized how much this school sucks, they will try to charge you an "adjustment tuition" for dropping classes. What school does this?!

I attended the program in Eagan, MN; I found this program to be ill-equipped to teach it's students. There are 3 instructors of which only one was decent. The instructors frequently gave incorrect information which required the student to continuously prove their case for exams. Furthermore, one of my friends was blackballed for speaking her mind about the poor instructional quality. If one makes it through the didactic portion of the program the clinical rotations (some of them) are also poorly educationally centered. I would highly recommend that you seek other schools which are more qualified to teach such an important profession.

This school sucks. The amount of money you pay doesn't afford a quality education. The school doesn't support it's students one bit. I did get my degree from here and now I'm stuck looking for a job and being discounted because my transcript has Argosy on it. The instructors for the most part don't know how to teach and you spent most of you time doing independent study. I paid for a classroom education. When forced to take online cllasses the communication with instructors was next to none. If you had a concern you could never get in touch with the program officials. All I have to say is avoid this school at all cost. They just want your money.

Very disappointing, waste of money

Overpriced, staffing shortages, high staff turnover, poor staff qualifications. Big problems with clinical training. Many students complete classroom work only to find that Argosy does not have a clinical site for them and therefore it is not possible for the student to complete his/her degree. When I expressed my displeasure with regard to their shortage of clinical sites I actually had a staff member ask me why I wouldn't transfer to another school. Let's see...because it would delay my graduation by at least a year?...because I would have to apply and then wait to get in and not all courses would transfer?...because i already paid Argosy a fortune and I didn't budget for having to attend two schools instead of one to complete my degree? Treat students poorly, does not have fair, impartial processes for handling grievances. The school is shell-shocked due to the large number of upset students and for this reason they immediately react to all grievances by taking the legally defensive protective stance of pointing all blame at students instead of trying to work with students to resolve legitimate concerns.
