Kaplan University

I am graduate of the Masters program at Kaplan University. I have must agree with several reviews listed, this is a great program and a wonderful university. I have only one complaint, the Financial Aid department. They are horrible. This is the only department at the university that lack friendliness and support.

I was on the computer researching online schools and sent in for information before I could change the page I received a phone call from an admissions representative. I was impressed. We talked and he was very positive! So I decided to check out some reviews and WOW! Well I thought it was too good to be true. I have my Bachelor's from a University, and was looking to further my education with a MA in the Health field. I am so glad I found this site. A red flag was raised when the rep told me that I didn't need to take any test nor were there any admissions requirements. NOTE: ANY SCHOOL THAT WILL LET YOU JUST WALK IN IS NOT WORTH WALKING INTO! Thanks for all your Honesty.

Finished my MS Education in 09. I thought the academic program was great. The professors & format was great! Much better than UoP and others I've seen. What was generally not so great was FA, but as someone already said, that's the norm in colleges. On graduation, they called & 3-way'd with my Stafford lender to make sure I understood everything. That was good, as Stafford is rather confusing. Accreditation? Of course, look it up in www.chea.org. Regional, the best you can get. They even have a law school and produce lawyers, so go figure! Location? Who cares? The online program is actually located in Ft Lauderdale FL. The actual degree doesn't mention a city. The transcripts are from Chicago IL, where the registrar's office is. Oh yeah, Gen Colon Powell was my commencement speaker at the Jan 2010 graduation in Miami. Too cool. Classy.

I don't really know what's with all the bad reviews. I've had no issues thus far with the Financial Aid. Cost of living checks sent on time. Courses have been ok. Could be more challenging and a little bit more stricter in the grading or correction. It seems like if you know what you are talking about you get a decent grade. Mane of the professors have been very helpful and are willing to help. This degree has definitely added value to my professional work like.
