University Of Phoenix Online is the Biggest Rippoff known. The same exact thing that happened to Estella in Florida happened to me. Phoenix Internet
The university of Phoenix online tried to make me take classes that I did not need to take. I had taken those same GEN ED classes ( which were only a way to suck you in). While attending my third class, I was snatched out of the system and told I was going to have to take algebra all over again. I had taken upper level math classes and could not understand why.
As for the transcripts, they neglected to even get my transcripts sent to the school telling me not to worry about it. When I told them That I was quitting because of a family emergency they had no heart and wanted me to sign up for a class that I was unable to atttend. I told them I was not able to attend the class, but they told me that if I did not register for the class the money would be sent back to the lender.
I said I would rather pay the lender than let them take money from me for a class that I was not going to attend. What it boiled down to is the uop online wanted to continue receiving my financial aid even after I had quit school. If this isn't a rippoff, you tell me what it is.

Dumb as they Come ..the greatest low quality educational provider
#2Consumer Suggestion
Tue, September 30, 2003
As with all corporations, the bottom line is to make a profit. Regardless of quality, the main objective is quantity. The more students a university gets the more money they receive. Any time a corporation expands and becomes larger, they lose touch with the quality necessary to be an effective business. This school claims to be the largest educational institution in the world; guess what? They have driven themselves to be the greatest low quality educational provider because they cannot keep up with the expanding inconsistencies that come with growth. Education, Degrees, and GPA are just a scam game people try to play to prove themselves better than other people. An article I read made the statement that a person who chooses the right profession along with their performance and attitude can achieve just as many opportunities for advancement as a graduate degree. A person does not need to have a degree to be a smart professional; they need knowledge and skill in what ever they do. The auto mechanic that works on my car is a high school dropout, but is more a professional than I because he knows the job very well and he scams me on the bill. I only know a lot of nothingness, but do not know how to make my car run. The GEN Classes are only scams to get more of your money; they are not transferable, they are only for that particular school. All schools have them; you just have to learn how to scam through them. GEN 300 and GEN 480 were classes of no importance to me, but because they were required, I had to take them. There are many Master Degreed people out there that are dumb as rocks. Therefore, the hype of getting a higher education is a scam. To get ahead, you have to have a skill that some body needs or become skilled in scamming the system. Each time you scam the easier it becomes to do it again. Lots of educated people scam the system that is why this website exists to expose them. The more education you get the better the scammer you will become and if you do it well then you will not be exposed, but successful. College teaches that persistence creates success and if you do it right the first time it will help you to do it better the second. The trick is, no matter what profession you get into if you do it good and you totally understand it then you will be successful. Just remember an increase in knowledge is an increase in sorrow; an increase in wages is an increase in debit. The higher you go, the greater the impact you will have with reality when you crash. The Master Scammers will have the advantage up until you learn to figure it out and beat them at their own game. Higher education will provide you the means to develop your very own Master Scam Plan for getting even and a degree will give you the credentials to do it.
