First of all, do not listen to anyone who has not personally attended UOP for an accurate review. My experience with UOP is as follows. I entered in Jan. 2009 to complete my bachelors degree in Criminal Justice Administration. Since then I have had nothing but a positive experience with UOP. Everyone has been up front about my classes and I hear from one of my counselors at least once a month asking if I am doing ok, and if I have any questions. My previous associates degree came from a brick school and let me tell you UOP is much harder than any brick school I have attended. You must actually contribute to discussions regarding your weekly topics. When have you ever had to give 300 + word detailed responses 8 times in a week to an instructor at a brick school? Also you will be writing an APA formatted paper almost every single week at UOP. Because of the fast paced classes, you are also responsible for a great deal of reading material each week. You must complete the reading material, contribute to at least 8 discussions, write a paper, and usually do some work within your group learning team. THAT IS EVERY WEEK PEOPLE. Anyone who says otherwise is a liar. UOP is for people who have the self-discipline to do all this on their own. As for the instructors, I have found them to be very well qualified and very interactive with me. Each time I ask a question of an instructor, I get a detailed response within 24 hours. Sometimes I have even been given extra details by my instructors that can help me in other areas. When you are graded at UOP, you are given detailed reasons why you are getting the grade you are getting from them. Also, you get feedback each week from you instructor so that you know how you are doing in the class and have time to improve areas of weakness as you go along. The only reason I am giving UOP 4 stars instead of 5 stars is because they are expensive. However, where else can I go to school on my schedule? My brother who lives in another state is just about to finish up his Associates degreee with Axia/UOP and will be starting his bachelors in December of this year. He has also had a good experience. Again, do not believe all these people who are unwilling to work to get an education. Anyone who says that UOP is a fake school is mistaken.
