I would not recommend attending APU’s credential program if your goal is to complete the program efficiently and graduate on time. My experience was filled with poor communication, lack of accountability, confusing program requirements, and an overall feeling that students are left to figure out critical issues on their own.
What should have been a straightforward completion process turned into an unnecessarily stressful, time-consuming, and expensive ordeal. Instead of feeling supported academically... Read More
Before attending this university, I strongly encourage students to carefully research the credential pathway, clinical requirements, CalTPA process, timelines, and total financial commitment. Make sure you document every important conversation and requirement in writing.

I was able to get practical skills that I still use everyday in my profession. Azusa's flexible scheduling allowed me to work and take classes at the same time so that I didnĂŤt have to experience a loss of income.

Azusa Pacific University's slogan is: "God First." When Jesus (my/our God and Savior) is sought first, everything else falls into place. Azusa Pacific University prepares students to get a great career. I was able to apply the education that I received at Azusa Pacific University. I would highly recommend Azusa Pacific University, a wonderful Christian college, to anyone and everyone!

I am about to start the program, so I can not say much about it. But so far it has been a great experience with faculty responding very quickly to any questions I might have for them and assisting me in this of applying to this graduate program.

Azusa Pacific University provides a warm and welcoming environment. The teacher to student ratios all teachers to fully invest in the learning of the students. However the cost for enrolling at APU is steep due to it being a private university.

Azusa Pacific University excels in many areas. These areas include but are not limited to the following: teacher/student ratio, faith-based education, tremendous faculty support, location of campus to supermarkets, restaurants, public transportation, etc. The university offers a variety of graduate programs (both on-campus and on-line) for almost all majors A few of the drawbacks include the lack of financial aid that is offered for graduate students, and the high cost of on-campus housing.

Azusa Pacific University is the only school that I wanted to attend for grad school. I actually found out about the school my sophomore year in college at Florida State University. APU was the only graduate school I applied for because of their Youth Ministry program. They proved to show as the best one in the U.S. The pros of the program are that the faculty is extremely friendly, and the program is precise. I've emailed the school of theology for 5 months, and the dean has communicated with me... Read More

I feel that I am going to be preapared to be a professional in Special Education when I complete my masters program because we discuss case studies on multiple areas in the special education field. I do research both in field experience, online, and in books that are pertinient to working with special education, and not just meaningless text work. The professors do not accept anything less that true knowledge that exhibits our understanding of what is expected for each final grade, and adding to... Read More

The Special Ed. and Educational Tech. M.Ed. program involves many projects and practices that I can use in my classroom. It is a new program so it still is being adjusted from time to time, but overall I am very pleased.
