University of Phoenix

I received my Ed.D. from the University of Phoenix in 2015. My Chair and Committee Members were very helpful and supportive. The University of Phoenix School of Academic Studies offered demanding classes that fit perfectly with my busy schedule and travels. I finished my degree while living in Germany and China. This would not have been possible with traditional universities. After I finished my degree I received employment with the State University of New York. Yes, I acknowledge that the university is more expensive to attend that some other universities that would not have met my needs. However, I must ask myself if it was all worth the expense and time. My only answer is, yes it was all worth it!

I got my Doctorate from UOP in Educational Leadership. The program was challenging, intellectually stimulating, and has depth. I am very satisfied and achieved what I wanted to do, Online learning requires discipline, will and hard work. UOP has high expectations - you have to work really hard and hat is what I did. It is a great school with dedicated faculty! I got my masters from Harvard and the education I got from UOP didn't have any less vigor but it requires discipline and hard work.

I had a wonderful experience and would do it again if I had to. I think that if you are a serious student, the experience will be great, but if you don't care, you will run into problems. My instructors were caring and knowledgeable. The program provided me the time flexibility that I needed.

I finished the Doctor of Education in 2007 and could not be more satisfied. The program far exceeded my initial expectations. Although it was very challenging, the experience changed me in many positive ways. I left the program with many actionable strategies , which I have since begun implementing at work. Looking back over the two years since I finished the Ed.D., I am amazed at the growth I achieved in my professional and personal lives. Kudos to UoP for such an excellent program. Dr. WTM

I feel that UOP was a great school to attend. My doctorate program allowed me to finish my doctorate degree in 3 and half years when it would have taken me close to six years at a traditional college. I wish I had used it for my other degree since I could have cut out more than three years of schooling. Hey the cost is higher sure but think about it that extra three years of school the cost would have been the same. Learning teams suck but teams at work suck too they do the same thing there is always a slacker!! Those of you whining about cost etc. think about the reality of time times money to see the cost was about the same!! My enrollment and academic counselor was great!!
