I just started the East Asian Studies bachelor program and the quality of education is fairly good in one class and excellent in another. I am taking two classes at a time. One class has decent lectures and materials, and I can take quizzes twice. In another class, the material is incredibly difficult and time-consuming and quizzes are tough. This particular class reminds me of when I was in graduate school (I'm working on a second bachelor's in order to pivot into a new field). My classmates are... Read More highly intelligent and discussion posts blow me away with how in-depth they interpret material. All in all, this is a good university that is worth your while.

My journey at Chamberlain University, from enrollment to graduation, has been incredibly supportive and transformative. From the beginning, I felt welcomed and guided, especially as I navigated the challenges of balancing work, motherhood, and online classes. The university鈥檚 library has been an invaluable resource, offering access to academic tools and research materials that enhanced my learning experience. The professors were approachable, supportive, and readily available, always willing to answer... Read More questions and provide encouragement. One professor who stood out was Professor Rossetti鈥攕he was very sweet, smart, and incredibly helpful throughout my BSN-RN journey. One of the most significant academic skills I gained was learning APA format, which was completely new to me when I started the program. Each professor, including Professor Rossetti, played a crucial role in helping me understand and apply APA style effectively, demonstrating patience and providing clear guidance along the way. Chamberlain University created a nurturing environment that allowed me to grow both personally and professionally.

Northcentral is an online school that seems to be trying to improve its academic reputation by bearing down on students, most of whom are working adults and single parents, by imposing unreasonable rules and showing zero support even when you have a legitimate issue. For one, they allow NO late assignments, and no make-up work (their reasoning is you don't get extensions in the real legal world -- but everyone who works in the legal field knows that extensions are the norm.) And by no late/makeup... Read More work I mean you can't even be a day or two late with something because of work or family obligations -- they don't take off points, they just won't accept it at all (immediate "F"). Compounding the issue is that their platform is chaotic with tons of glitches, but they act like that's your problem and you better work around it or your grade will suffer. I've taken classes at far more prestigious colleges where they don't treat students this way. I'm transferring out of the program after ONE semester.

I鈥檓 25% done earning my bachelors degree in Business Management and I鈥檓 happy with the school so far. You have to remember that this is an online school with an independent learning model, meaning you basically teach yourself. They give you all the resources you need to be successful but it is 100% your responsibility to use them effectively. I have weekly phone calls with my academic advisor who helps keep me on track and lets me know how I鈥檓 doing. It is true that trying to get an appointment with... Read More your instructor can be difficult and it may not be right away. The other thing that is a little, different let鈥檚 say, is the proctored exams. They are online with a company that is based out of India, so the proctors can be difficult to understand, I鈥檝e actually had proctors fall asleep during my exam and sometimes they don鈥檛 鈥渟how up鈥� so you have to take extra steps to get your test done. Overall I鈥檓 happy with my experience so far and I鈥檓 actually thinking of going on to get my masters from this school.

I am currently an online student studying audio production and studio engineering. The class assignments have broken links to necessary videos and examples... Assignments might not upload... Tech support is only able to help with software issues- they have little to no experience with hardware- interface, mics, keyboards- etc... The instructors are as helpful as possible and professional but they are extremely limited with assisting with many problems. I have had major issues trying to attend live... Read More lectures, Im only able to watch the live recordings. When it comes to most issues, we are recommended to ask our classmates via dischord groups... This "school" is a rip off.

FSCJ will scam you. Avoid at all costs - especially if you have financial aid needs. I originally attended another state University and I thought I knew what my major was going to be right out of high school. That changed drastically due to financial hardship, family issues, and the economy's collapse. Because I was in such a regimented career path, I was taking 15-18 credit hours per semester and most of those credits would not count for anything other than electives if I switched programs. I transferred... Read More to FSCJ, faced more hardships, had to leave for a bit, and have now returned to horrible grades from dropping after the deadlines and a pile of classes that don't count for anything. All FSCJ is looking at for my GPA now are my failed classes. Virtually nothing else I took counts toward an AA or and AS or the Bachelors that I'm seeking. Online courses are new for me and, when I enrolled in college the first time, it was all done on paper. I didn't have financial aid before either so everything was new to me. FSCJ did not help me understand anything. For the better part of a year, I have spent at least 5 - 10 hours per week contacting their advisors (whether they be in student services, financial aid, financial services, or academic advising) to attempt to resolve major issues. This is time that would have been better spent working or studying. They do not explain SAP and its importance. I was told repeatedly by financial services, financial aid, and academic advisors that if I took a minimum of three courses in the summer and received A's in all three of them, that I would maintain SAP compliance and would continue receiving financial aid. I spoke to 2 different academic advisors (one who recommended I get an AA and then another who was more focused on business administration degrees who insisted that the AS track for the Bachelors would be better for me). The business administration academic advisor discouraged me from taking the courses I would need for the AA, never once bringing up that I would still have to pick up many sciences, additional Humanities, etc. courses during the second half of my degree (the Bachelors). In fact, she never even mentioned that I would be attending 3-4 years of classes. She made it sound as if I would have the Bachelors in 2 years if I just followed her plan. This was not true. Then, this same advisor suggested that I enroll in 3 summer classes to "take it easy" since I had not had a "good academic record" and the courses would be "challenging" for me. She enrolled me the three specific courses and then provided me an outline of future courses to take. Because I wasn't feeling challenged enough and because COVID was forcing me to stay at home anyways, I selected another course from my fall semester to take in the summer. It was a course that she had recommended. Of these four courses only ONE counted toward my AS or my Bachelors. During the summer semester, I was receiving financial aid on a probationary status because of my GPA - or at least that's what I was told. It was explained to me many times that I needed all A's in my summer courses to maintain my GPA so that I would stay in compliance with SAP. No one - at any point over 6 months - mentioned that I would inevitably fall out of SAP compliance because of my credits for completion percentage. All the classes (whether A's or otherwise) that I had taken prior to this summer semester were counted as "taken". And this is where it gets fuzzy. Some people told me that taking more classes that counted toward my degree (the AS) would "bump out" the classes that didn't. I think that was incorrect but I'm still not sure. I lost my financial aid after the summer semester and within 1 week of the start of fall classes. By this time, no one wanted to take responsibility for the misinformation and, instead, they blamed me for it. I was told that I "should have known" and that it was my "responsibility". Yes. It is my responsibility. That's exactly why I've spent so much time emailing and calling advisors! I was blamed for not asking "the right questions" at "the right time". Additionally, I was passed around from person to person for three straight days and, by the time I finally got to talk to someone who might have been able to help me, I was told that he couldn't because the deadline was the prior Friday (I was talking to him on Tuesday) and I would have had to speak to someone did. And I had. I'd spoken to over 6 people that prior Thursday and to a director at FSCJ on that Friday and none of them mentioned that Friday was the cut off. However, I was just "supposed to know that". Had they actually assisted me during that entire week that I was attempting to resolve the financial aid issues and figure out how SAP compliance was affecting me, I could have enrolled in a payment plan through FSCJ, started my classes, and then paid gradually - and I could have afforded it! Instead, I was removed from my courses, encouraged to do a SAP appeal (which went nowhere), and then ended up having to get a student loan halfway through the semester just so I could pile on classes in the C semester. After I spent even more time researching SAP compliance, I learned that I was required to meet SAP Compliance within ONE SEMESTER to ensure that I would continue receiving financial aid. Now here's the kicker. In order to meet both the GPA and the percentage of completion requirements, I would have had to take and pass with a B or better at LEAST 34 credit hours in ONE SEMESTER. It was impossible for me to achieve this! Additionally, even though that would put me back in the good graces for the completion percentage and GPA, it would not have put me in good enough standing for my total credit hours which would have been exceeded after one more semester of at least 3 classes. Therefore, I would have had to take 34 credit hours in one semester, get all A's and B's in those courses, and then finance one semester of a minimum of 12 - 15 credit hours to get my financial aid back for the third semester where I would take another 12 hours and then I'd lose my financial aid again and have to finance the last semester, if any courses were still remaining. At no point was any of this explained to me. No one did any math to determine that it would be pointless for me to even bother with financial aid for the fall 2020 semester. It was my responsibility to do their jobs. Had I known this would have been the strategy, I could have applied for loans early. I could have worked more hours to cover some of the costs. But I didn't know. Every time I called in about notifications I was receiving about my financial aid status, I was always told that everything was "fine" and "not to worry about it". Apparently I should have been very worried! Additionally, three of those four summer classes do not even count toward my AS or my Bachelors. These are courses I was told that I had to take because they were "prerequisites". They weren't. I checked - after I'd already taken them. Therefore, these three courses would not have even counted toward that completion rate. They did raise my GPA, but what good does that do me when I cannot meet the other financial aid requirements and am not actually working toward my goal? Because of poor academic advising and poor guidance from financial aid and financial services advisors, I not only lost my financial aid, I wasted my financial aid on three unnecessary classes when I could have been taking something that mattered, and I am now in debt and having to enroll in five courses for the fall C schedule just to stay on track. Yes. I'm taking five classes that are each compressed into seven weeks just to make up for being unable to properly enroll in the fall semester and not having taken courses that actually mattered in the summer - all courtesy of my academic advisor. Additionally, I submitted a SAP Appeal which took a countless amount of hours preparing, only to have it rejected. Financial Aid required me to take a "SAP Appeal" course online. Why wasn't this assigned to me back in the spring when I was enrolling for summer? They literally had this information and withheld it from me. To make matters worse, I no longer trust my academic advisor. I spent over 15 hours figuring out my own degree path and, in doing so, started looking at ways to transfer out of FSCJ. But I can't leave. I'm stuck. To transfer to another school, I would have needed to complete an AA - the Associates that the business administration academic advisor told me would not be good for me. This is the same advisor that had me enroll in three pointless classes by telling me that they were essential prerequisites and failed to tell me about the impending financial aid doom. I also learned that more of my classes (the ones I have A's in!) that I'd taken back when I first started college in a different degree program would have actually have counted toward the AA, but not the AS. Therefore, had I taken AA courses over the summer, I would have been in a better position to transfer, would have been closer to being in SAP compliance, would have had a better chance at maintaining my financial aid, and would have started with a better GPA. Instead, I listened to an academic advisor who has now basically trapped me at FSCJ unless I want to spend another year taking classes for the AA. Through all of this I have learned the following about FSCJ staff: 1) They do not have the tools necessary to do their jobs well or timely; 2) They are either provided outdated training or insufficient training to do their jobs properly; 3) They have no one in a leadership position who will hold staff accountable for their actions; 4) They have no choice but to pass students around between any number of departments because no one department or group fully understands any part of the registration, advising, or payment portions of being enrolled at FSCJ; 5) They are unavailable during non-business hours even though their school is supposed to be built around people's busy work schedules; 6) They rarely take initiative to explore solutions; 7) They will avoid responding to inconvenient emails; 8) The staff that can be helpful usually blames the student for following instructions given by other staff members. Bottom line: There is zero accountability at FSCJ. I truly regret enrolling in this school. It is a nightmare. My transcripts are incomplete. I have lost my financial aid because of their negligence. I have lost precious time because of their inefficiencies. I have taken unnecessary classes because of their advising. I have somehow lost my AP Exam credits and now must pay to have those sent to FSCJ (even though they had them previously). I am somehow ineligible to enroll in College Algebra because I have to take a placement test, but I have a prior College Algebra attempt. I cannot seem to change my name despite multiple attempts to engage with their staff. (This resulted in my private loan having issues that I have been trying to resolve for the better part of two weeks now and cannot get a concrete answer or resolution from anyone.) I cannot get reliable answers over the phone from FSCJ staff and advisors. FSCJ is a stressful nightmare. They will misadvise you, trap you in their programs, and cost you more time and money. What I suspect has happened to me is that they knew that I was going to lose my financial aid, gave me easy but pointless classes for the summer so that I would get A's and make their school look better, enroll me in courses that had low attendance (because no one actually needs them for their degrees!) to fill a quota, have me take courses that would use up my financial aid so that I would have to pay for more courses, lock me into an AS so that I could not transfer, and, thus, milk money from me for an extra semester or two. I honestly think they scammed me. I just can't see it in any other light.

I am reading quite a lot of bad reviews for my school. I want to start off by saying I did receive a refund for my first term. Now why everyone else is saying that the financial aid department lacks communication, confuses me. Every time I had a question I was able to get in contact with my Financial Aid advisor over the phone. In order for you to get a refund you need to be a full time student and active in your courses. Now as far as communication goes, I get fast responses from my instructors... Read More via email and get regular check ups from my Academic Advisor Kimberly. I am not sure why their are so many negative reviews, as long as you do your work on time and stay involved in the courses, you should be good!!

I enrolled in the school because it was during COVID, so online was the best option. That and I did not have a car, so the online curriculum and format was ideal for my situation. What I did not know was just how writing intensive the school programs were. That is not a bad thing because it gives plenty of opportunity to work on effective writing and communication. Above all else, was the flexibility of the course work. On some weeks where I was motivated, I was able to get all of my work done by... Read More Thursday and have the weekend to relax and detach from schoolwork. Overall, I would recommend for anyone with a busy or changing schedule.
