Aspen University

This school is DETC accredited, so if you want to become a Teacher, Librarian, etc don't come here. Come to this school if you are looking to advance in your company or to have a Bachelors and/or Masters to add to your resume. I want to advance with my company so I'm coming to this school to graduate and get that degree and advance. I'm not looking for an education (I read and write all day so learning comes naturally and on my own personal time) I love that in each class so far there is only one assignment and one discussion post per module. It's very easy, you just have to have the time to write the essay (1,000 words..appx 4 pages) so, if you can handle that (which, you should since it's college, but still super easy) then I believe you should choose Aspen. It is super cheap, so even if you have to repay the student loans it won't be that much. Come to Aspen, get that degree and advance in life (remember: You will all learn on the job, you will learn nothing about your job reading a school book.)

This school is nice. However, I have had many problems with the staff. They are unhelpful and take too long to get issues solved. The staff never know what they are doing. They tell you anything just to get you off the phone. I would not attend have attended Aspen if I would have been warned first. There is always new staff and they cannot help with the problems. This really drives me crazy! I can't wait until I am done!

I have currently completed 4 classes within the BSCJ program and I have to say I am very impressed by the books and instructors in all classes. FYI-lecture notes are no longer required to be purchased and when I enrolled under the prepayment plan, my lecture notes were given to me free of charge. Actually, they do not provide the amount of info you can get in the book. So do not bother with them. This school has provided me the determination to complete a degree that has eluded me for nearly ten years. I urge anyone who is interested in online schooling to enroll here. It is amongst the cheapest and most effective curriculums one will come acroos, not to mention that this school is nationally accredited.

I must say I have had a wonderful experience thus far with my Criminal Justice program. I have been in law enforcment 17 years and the books and instructors have been very effective. The staff at Aspen have always returned my emails quickly and respectfully. The discussion board for Independent learners is new, but honestly it hasn't been that burdensome. My instructor and I both pose questions and have a good time with it. I would encourage anyone to matriculate into Aspen. I've been to several schools and none have been perfect, but Aspen certainly does a good job.
