Degree: Psychology

Maybe this used to be a good school, but that is no longer the case. Classes are not designed by professors and do not feature PhD level material. No interest in scholarship, narrowly focused on practice. That said, the Social Justice Practicum requirement is badly designed and feels more like an intentional hurdle than an accomplishment. I completed the program only because I had no other options and was already deeply invested. Would not recommend.

At Adler, Professors are great. People are great. The administration is abysmal. They frequently don't make expectations clear to students and then get angry with students for asking basic questions. They are completely disconnected from the professors and student body and just view us a dollar signs.

The professors at Adler are first rate, but sometimes overloaded. I earned a masters in psychology with a specialization in military psy and concentration in counterterrorism. My professors currently worked in or were retired from those fields, so in addition to relevant coursework I had the opportunity to learn through their experiences. There was one exceptionally problematic professor who headed the social justice program, but she is no longer employed by the university. In reading the above reviews,... Read More

Theory and practical implementation are combined in Adler's Environmental/Natural Resource Economics curriculum. Small class sizes and helpful teachers improve learning. Strong emphasis on sustainability, while additional possibilities for fieldwork would be fantastic.

Adler University is one of the few schools with a counselling psychology program including a course on Trauma. That itself speaks to the importance and the quality of the program. Professors are excellent and although expensive- they support your education and want you to succeed. The counselling psychology program is one of the best!

The online program is abysmal. The teachers don’t teach the material or barely answer questions. It’s literally teaching yourself for $900 a credit hour. No phone numbers, they expect us to use email only. Worse program I’ve ever been in. Unless you want to teach yourself and be ignored, go anywhere, but here.

Adler spares every expense on this $60,000 per year education. I do believe I will be given the materials that I need to prepare for licensure. It’s been difficult to see how Adler does not address cohorts concerns. Performative/dated social justice.

My worst experience in Canada was at Adler University. They never recognize your efforts. You learn about injustice and discrimination while experiencing them at this university. You're wasting your time and money here under a lot of stress. Your English abilities are easily mocked here. You are not permitted to form a virtual group of classmates using WhatsApp or other apps. They have the ability to change your score at any time, even months after it has been published. You are not in a nurturing... Read More

Not recommended at all, a total waste of money and time. One instructor in the I/O program in particular is extremely unprofessional, rude and incompetent. I don't know why they keep that person as a faculty member. It's also ridiculous how this school insists in completing a social justice practicum while the students struggle to complete their assignments on time. Overall, a joke of institution.

Public Policy and Administration of Canada campus is a hell! It is like a residential school! Really it is not a university. I am so sorry for my time and money which were wasted in this hell! It is not only my idea, it is the ideas of all my students. If you want to see racism, discrimination, system of privilege, and system of domination you can start in this field in Adler University especially Canada campus. You can experience them practically!

I got a decent education but was left with a bad taste in my mouth after missing out on 7+ months of practice and income.

Due to bureaucratic red tape (I had to wait 3 months after finishing everything else to take the final exam, then 2+ months for them to officially post the result, then another month+ for them to confer my degree and send my transcript), I was in "career limbo" for more than seven months (as in it took 7+ months after I finished my degree before I could get my professional license...

I wish I could rate zero. Please do your research before giving your money to this school. I have 2 issues, 1 is an extremely uncomfortable vibe one of the teacher gives and allows to go on when it comes to men. I have never felt so uncomfortable in all my life in a classroom setting than I have with . So unprofessional, and if you say anything to anyone, then they will do everything they can to sweep it under the rug and tell you to move on. Next, there is a professor that will just give you...

PsyD Program is strong but requires a lot of self-directed motivation to be successful. Professors are helpful but sometimes overloaded with too many students. The Chicago campus is great and up to date. There are a lot of resources available but students must seek them out on their own.

Adler University is well known for clinical training in psychology. The staff have great merit and offer great knowledge and expertiese. The school itself is a social justice school, so culture and diversity are invited, discussed and acknowledged throughout the program. This program prepared me for my professional career and helped me learn crucial counseling skills to help clients become successful in their own lives.

My program was online. I was able to work a full-time job while completing my degree. The instructors were very knowledgeable and responded to every question I had. The structure of the online program Adler uses is great (the app too!) I was able to pull up assignments from wherever I was. The coursework was closely tied to what I will be doing in my professional career. I feel like I will use everything I learned.

The professors and staff at Adler are incredibly professional and helpful. They were especially understanding when it came to my military schedule interfering with some of the papers and projects that were due.
