Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?
At first Northcentral University (NCU) seemed to address all my educational needs: it was convenient and stimulating. I progressed through the entire process, ultimately facing the dissertation process. Here's the unfortunate circumstances that unfolded:

My dissertation concept paper was approved by the committee and the Research Director. The director had some important comments posted to my paper, but I wasn't able to see them. Why? Um, I guess it got lost in the system. . . at least that was the excuse I was given.

Next my dissertation proposal was approved by my entire committee. And then I had to wait. . . .

The Reviewer (Research Director) finally received my paper after it had been waiting somewhere in NCU limbo for almost 20 days.

The Research Director essentially did not like my dissertation and told me in no uncertain terms to start over.

I have only a few weeks left in this class before it ends and I will have to pay for it all over again.

It turns out, I'm not the only one. My dissertation committee chair says that NCU is doing it to at least three of her other doctoral candidates and one is ready to defend.

I'm wondering if anyone else is having these issues?

As I previously stated, NCU was a dream for me in every regard up until I entered the dissertation process; then, look out!!!

I noticed another disgruntled former NCU student reported his regrets and has spoken of possible law suits. I wish him luck.

Abd - glad to hear that you are getting traction on your issues with NCU. I sincerely hope that all goes well and you are able to finish your doctorate soon. Thanks for the well-wishes! My first lawsuit against an NCU mentor is on the court docket for July 15th. Repeated contacts with NCU have been met with silence. If their choice is to deal with me in court instead of handling the issues like a responsible business would, then so be it.
