My experience with Amberton University has been very strong. I did extensive research before I…read moredecided on a master's program at this school. There were a few aspects of the university that made me decide to go with their program. Top of the list was excellent reviews by current and former students. Next, I wanted a program that would be extremely challenging, as I wanted a high quality education from a regionally accredited university. Last, I needed flexibility within my work schedule to be able to do my writing and research when I wanted. For me, Amberton fit all of these requirements. I am about halfway through my MS Human Resources, and I have been extremely pleased with the professors, and the education I have received. My GPA is high, but I have worked very hard for it. This school is not for the faint of heart, so be prepared to dedicate a lot of time to your class on reading and writing papers. Also, you must receive a 92% to achieve an A grade, 82% for a B, etc., and during undergrad I was on the standard scale of 90-100% being an A. The only reason I did not give Amberton five stars is due to their current online interface. Although they have made large strides in the past year to upgrade the online experience, there is minimal use of multimedia and interactive resources. Being a smaller school, I understand it takes a large budget to get there, but in my opinion this is the one area their programs are currently lacking. Once they fill this gap, it will be a five star experience. All in all, the education I have received has been extremely valuable, as I can apply it in real-time at my current position. I recommend this program to anyone who is serious about their academics, and wants to use their degree to succeed in the future. I'm very confident my degree will enhance my ability to be promoted in the future.

Amberton University is a school for working ADULTS. It was great to go to school with people my own…read moreage. I liked that this school didn't have excessive fees for things I didn't need. Parking is free, there is NO gym, and everyone is a commuter. All classes are in the evening, on Saturday mornings, or online. The professors understand that they are teaching working adults, and sometimes the demands of work or family cause us to miss class. They were ALWAYS willing to accommodate me. I had terrific professors at Amberton. Most of them have been there a long time, and I only had one adjunct while I was there. Classes were not huge, so I felt that I had the opportunity to get to know my profs. They were always available for office hours, which I frequented often. Best part about Amberton--the price. It is so much cheaper than other schools around. I got out of graduate school with no debt. Study groups were abundant. The book store was terrific about buying back my books. The staff was always helpful. The campus is not pretty. There are not a lot of degree choices or elective choices. This is truly a no frills university. To me, none of that stuff mattered as long as I graduated without debt! Check it out if you are looking into grad work or undergrad work.

I was a little upset because I was under the impression that it's individual learning with the tutor, not group learning. Other then that it's an awesome place to help children in their studies.

"Types of Accreditation…read more Schools can receive accreditation from either national or regional accreditors. Nationally accredited schools are mostly for-profit. For example, they could offer vocational or technical programs. Most regionally accredited schools are non-profit, with academics as the primary focus. If you decide to attend a nationally accredited school, remember this: In some cases, regionally accredited schools will not accept transfer credits from a nationally accredited school. This is because of academic standards and differing courses of study." "If you want to attend a professional or specialized college, choosing an accredited program is very important for licensing purposes. Attending an unaccredited college could prevent you from taking the necessary steps for professional US licensure. In some fields, you need a license before you can legally practice your profession in the US. Choosing an accredited school can be crucial! Almost every profession has a group that is a recognized accreditor for professional or specialized schools." UniversityLanguage.com Be careful what program you choose. Investigate first & work with the recruiter. You have your part too! Credits for courses which are purely technical in nature may or may not transfer to a university. Educational institutions are either regionally or nationally accredited. Accreditation is a voluntary process that ensures a college, university, or degree program meets a universal standard for quality. This gives an institution and its graduates credibility with other institutions and employers.

Here are some of my firsthand experiences with the school: -I have raised three kids, two of whom came here for school and beyond academics participated in Football, Drill Team, Soccer, and Basketball. Combined, that gives me 8 years of firsthand experience with the school. My kids that came here for school also both received academic scholarships to colleges, so I believe that speaks to the quality of the education they received here. -Each time I have had situations that have required me to interact with faculty or administrators of the school, the interactions have been competent, pleasant, and professional.

A small Catholic wonderland where dedicated, monogamous relationships are considered cool. Like…read moreall small Catholic wonderlands, this place has its issues. The more time you spend here, whether as a student, a parent, or a professor, the more apparent the budget issues are. One way University of Dallas makes its money is by increasing the price of tuition every year. Academic awards for students do not increase, so you will be paying more each year. Many departments are underfunded, and the former president who focused heavily on increasing revenue was let go due to some back room scandals and drama that the administration will not disclose. There are a lot of instances in which I've felt like UD cares more about PR than it does about its own students. Most recently, when the new President was inaugurated, students were prohibited using from certain parking lots near academic buildings because they were reserved for "guests" at the inauguration, and apparently students are not guests at their own president's inauguration. I have a lot of things to say about campus life like most students. Mainly there is never enough parking to accommodate everyone and it cost $125/year when I was there just to park on campus. The parking fines are extremely petty and show the university's greed for money. The housing requirement for students is similar (unnecessary and only exists to bring in money). The food on campus is mediocre, and Aramark, the provider of food services, has a monopoly over the food available on campus. So having said all that, the education you get here is pretty solid, and professors are generally passionate about their fields while also challenging towards students' preconceived ideas. The core curriculum is focused on God, Nature, and Man, and all the academic subjects that encompass/combine these. I really liked a lot of my professors. UD students are known for their writing skills, and employers are aware of this.

Classes that should be there are left off and instructors that left years ago and will not be teaching are still listed. Opt-out does not work after a year of trying to get help through every avenue possible. Emeritus students get dumped 4 times a semester for non-payment when their classes are supposed to be free. The employees are wonderful, but they are not trained and nothing ever gets fixed. Implementing Workday has been a complete disaster and has done nothing but cause problems for everyone. Students will spend hours on the online queue only to get dumped without being helped. Going on campus for services takes hours and one will be shuffled endlessly from one department to another as no one knows how to do anything. Communication is absolutely terrible across the board. Dirty professors like Dr. Andrew Evangelista will put students into dozens of hours that will not transfer, but will exhaust financial aid and may land students in out of state tuition upon transfer. Despite numerous complaints nothing is done to stop rogue professors like him. He was a temporary Music Department Chair and now has been named a permanent one. He added junior level classes that can never transfer and has expanded the music program into complete collapse. Who wants to sing in a choir of 7? Dallas College is a disorganized and chaotic mess. When will the administration and the board start listening to students, paying parents, taxpayers and graduates of the program and making the desperately needed changes?
