AIU is a great school for students who are mature and have discipline. If you are the typical Gen X/Y slacker, this school is not for you. Yes the University is expensive but they provide concierge service. Everything is done for you administratively and all books & software are included in the tuition. Frankly, as I read some of these negative reviews the common theme is the whiner "they didn't do everything for me and I actually was expected to put forth effort" routine. If you can't do the required work without having a professor hold your hand, AIU is not for you. I completed my undergraduate at a traditional school. The university expects graduate students to be self motivated and if you are you will succeed, if not you will fail. I would venture that anyone who can not do well at AIU will likely not do well elsewhere... or in life.

The previous posters are correct, but for the wrong reasons. UIUC is not a public school Ivy- its engineering program actually blows the Ivy Leagues out of the water according to US News and World Reports and has a lot of program directors at Stanford and MIT very nervous about their own rankings.

UIUC is also strong in the hard sciences, math, and actuarial science. Its accounting program is currently beating Wharton's (and the other Ivies).

I don't know what the earlier poster was talking about when he mentioned grade inflation. Engineering and Math courses typically curve to a C+/B- average. If you graduate with a 3.5 GPA from UIUC in Math or Engineering, that's a pretty impressive accomplishment.

I am almost done with my BBA at JIU. The experience is fantastic! I transferred from Grand Canyon, and it was the best decision I could have made. I haven't experienced any of the issues at JIU that I did at GCU. My advisors know me, and it's easy to ask questions. The curriculum is challenging, especially compared to other online schools. However, the time commitment is still less than it was at the other school.

I plan to get my MBA there as soon as I graduate in the spring. If you have thought about other online schools, save the time. My sister is in their master's of education program and loves it as much as I do! She also transferred from GCU (and took me with her).

If you are thinking about taking an on-line course at the University of Phoenix...forget it! The University hires third rate teachers who have little college teaching experience and at times nothing more than a master's degree. Most importantly, their on-line classes lack any substance and pale in comparison with real college or university courses. Sure you can get a passing grade, but if you really want to be able to learn and apply skills and knowledge needed in a professional world, choose another school. You are waiting your time and money by taking courses at the University of Phoenix.

I have attended (4) online institutions. I would rate Aspen University to be one of the best. The instructors input was excellent. The current president even teaches classes. And he is very serious about his/your work product. I have nothing bad to say about them. The interaction could be better, but hey its online isn't it?
