Here's the problem... You were looking for a quick fix like a lot of people out there. Guess what, there is not a quick or easy fix. People who have a good education and the jobs to back it up, attend a real 4 year university. Online degrees are crap. You don't learn anything no matter where you go. You get no hands on experience and no interaction. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out and employers know that too. And i know, you don't have time, or have to work, or have kids, or another excuses. Well why are there thousands of students at real colleges in your same boat across the country? Quit making excuses. Work hard, give up a few luxuries, and get where you want to go through working hard and a real education. You are in control of your actions so don't blame others when the boat you made sinks.

I have been a student at this school for over a year. I am currently enrolled with a GPA of 3.8. Achieving that has not been easy as there were no overly simple course requirements or work due as you have insinuated. I would like to see an example of the work you describe. I have also been in the virtual classroom and do not experience that the same way that you do. Also, while loans do not cover all of my expenses, the staff at the school has been exceptionally helpful with me in getting into this school. The day I officially enrolled was over a year after I expressed interest. It was not easy and I was more than thankful toward my financial advisor for assisting me in the long journey toward enrollment. Some of the assignments in this school have been so difficult for me that I have really struggled with my own limitations. I test in the above 130 IQ range. While some of the courses were a bit easier. I have not encountered any negative or undereducated staff or teachers. I make monthly payments in order to stay in school and feel absolutely fortunate for being able to afford it. What I have learned is truly worthwhile. It is possible that not sticking with the school and following through can be disappointing as the more difficult subjects are encountered as a student progresses. There is not a quick fix or instant degree. I'm okay with that. So far I have enjoyed the opportunity an online degree affords. At no time did this school say to me that I could take classes at my own pace. They did say I could take them when I wanted. These are two different things. Durring any given day I can schedule that day as I need to. I can not, however, take all the lectures and classes in one day at the end of the term. If I did I would miss out on team building processes and leadership opportunities as well as class interaction. The class interaction is a major big deal for me. I love my school. I work hard and I don't mind earning my degree. I am sorry you feel differently. I wonder though if you actually followed through, or if you are looking for some kind of excuse? Our experiences are so utterly and completely different that I truly wonder if you have contacted the same school. Any attorney who would like me to assist in defending against this action may contact me through subpoena. (You know how.) I would be happy to repeat this in court with grades and documentation. I would also love to share what this school has taught me.
