My experience at Alliant International University has truly been wonderful. I began my MBA program…read morein 2023 and am now preparing to graduate, and throughout this journey I have consistently felt supported by both faculty and staff. What stands out most is how much the faculty genuinely care about student success. I've had the opportunity to learn in a diverse and inclusive environment where instructors are approachable, invested, and committed to helping students grow both academically and professionally. As a working mom of three, the flexible and sustainable program structure made it possible for me to balance school, work, and family life without feeling overwhelmed. That flexibility made a meaningful difference in my ability to stay engaged and succeed. I'm very grateful to Alliant for being such a strong partner in helping me reach my educational goals. I'm even considering continuing on to a PhD, and if I do, Alliant will absolutely be my first choice. I highly recommend this university to anyone looking for a supportive, student-centered graduate program.

I had a horrible experience trying to take Microbiology. The lab aspect was a complete nightmare…read morebecause the lab company UCSD works with is incredibly disorganized. I'm currently taking a Chemistry course. This week, I spent one hour learning chemistry on Canvas, and five hours trying to get my textbook and homework platform to link with Canvas. Canvas provides no instructions whatsoever. The professor just tells you to contact the textbook company. The textbook website says to click on a link on Canvas. Unfortunately that link in Canvas takes you to a blank page. Other students are having problems too. This is my second horrible experience with UCSD Extension. If you want to learn science, find another place to take your classes. If you want to spend hours trying to resolve technical problems, this is a great option. I wish UCSD Ext would not outsource.

I took Microbiology with Lab 169818 at UC San Diego and it was the most disorganized experience…read more Lessons are everywhere. Not organized at all. Mixed up and repeated information the learning sections. The videos provided for learning are not the teacher speaking and are random people/"professors" but some of them can't even pronounce the words and sound like they have NO CLUE what they are talking about. It's quite confusing what you really need to know for the class because the modules say one thing but the PowerPoints, reading, and videos talk about that plus way more. It's very much so an overload. It's like no one took the time to perfect or even proofread this class setup and modules. Science lab kit is way overpriced for what you get. Like really for $450 you couldn't add 2 paper clips, alcohol, extra masks, more candles, extra Petri dishes with agar, and extra microbes (for any errors). We are not experts here and being left alone to do the labs especially at the beginning is trial and error. For me I accidentally punctured the agar with the loop and ruined my whole sample and it was just shit out of luck unless I wanted to buy more myself (only about $10 but I just paid $450 for this kit so why should I have to do that?). Not everything in the kit was used. It was a huge waste of money. The class is kind of "at your own pace" so you could totally finish early and wing it! I guess if you have the money and don't really want to learn but just need the class- go for it. I would never recommend this class or school to anyone. It was a terrible experience and this is coming from someone who already has a degree and has taken MANY online classes.

This review is for the gym. It is a great sports venue. They keep it well maintained by the school…read more The bleachers are older but are well maintained and sturdy. The walls, ceiling, and rafters are painted and very clean. The basketball gym floor is super glossy, clean, and well kept. They have a PA System and they announce the varsity games and play music on it. I noticed that they have large projector sized screens on each end of the gym. Their A/V Team is pretty nice.

Principal Sabin works hard to keep up a great school. Keep in mind....There's no such thing is a perfect school. Every school has bullying, drugs, bad teachers/staff. It is what you make of it. This school has plenty of elective, club and sport choices. Probably one of the best in culinary and of course they have a great band (Attended Rose Bowl not once but twice!). Plenty of parking and surrounded by lots of food options for the kids to walk to after school or on minimum days. Upgrades always going. They have recently added a new band room, upgraded baseball field and math building. Shout out to Class of 2021, 2023 and 2027! Go Marauders!

I wish more people knew about my alma mater. Marshall Goldsmith School of Management at Alliant…read moreInternational University. For some odd reason, it's a well kept secret. Not to business professionals, psychologists, and consultants but to many of my friends and family. I graduated with a Master's Degree in Organizational Behavior last year. I originally was in the PhD program for Consulting Psychology (the only one in the nation, by the way). Then, due to a lil' hiccup ... or should I say big bump ... or just call it like it is ---- This HAPPY lady got pregnant --- I ended up having to change my short-term educational goals from a PhD to a MA. I loved ALL my classes in Organizational Psychology, Consulting, Leadership, Organizational Change, Group Dynamics, Diversity, Human Resources, Performance Management, Assessment, Conflict Resolution, Organizational Culture, Training & Development, with one exception of Statistics (I sucked!). The coursework is challenging but gives the best preparation for the workforce! This is not considered a research-based education but more a practical and applied education that gives broad experience and knowledge. Internships are required in order to graduate which offers even one more leg-up to getting a job after graduation! The professors are well respected and connected! Marshall Goldsmith, it's namesake, is one of the world's most influential thinkers on business and management in the world! There are other significant thought leaders associated with my alma mater, too. Just a few examples are Ken Blanchard, Frances Hesselbein, Paul Hersey, Ken Shelton, Jim Kouzes, and Dave Ulrich. I am very interested in going back for their new degree. GREEN MBA (i.e., Sustainability, Three Bottom Lines, Corporate Social Responsibility). And the PhD in Leadership looks really kewl, too! What can I say? I'm a lifelong learner ... I just love school (even if that makes me a dork/geek!). The last thing I want you know is Alliant is a private, non-profit, accredited institution (much like Claremont Graduate University, Pepperdine, John F. Kennedy School, and Golden Gate University). It's really an honor to have graduated from MGSM at Alliant! The more of you YELPERS and THE WORLD that know about MGSM, the easier it will be for me and my fellow students to get hired or be high in-demand! I am not too excited when someone thinks my education was at a for-profit university, a university that is only offered on-line or one that has a campus in every city in America.

The membershop at SDFWA is a wonderful resource. I had been out of woodworking for many years and…read morewhen I found out in 2016 that SDFWA was opening a shop for members where we could use all the tools, work on our projects, meet and interact with other woodworkers, take classes and volunteer to help the shop and the woodworking community, I signed up even before the place was open.

Aria could have gone to TK but I kept her at Gladys 1 more year bc I did not think she was ready for a bigger school. Now after 2 years, she has flourished so much. She eats all kind of food, actually Ms Gladys' food is the best not mommy's . She reads well, is good at math, follows Montessori. Kumon even complimented her she had passed TK level on math. This is coming to an end for Aria at ABCD as she will start kindergarten soon. It is such a bittersweet moment. But at least I know I will bring my second daughter to her soon. Thanks Gladys and Pablo for loving her, caring for her from feeding 1 spoon of food at a time. She is now ready for K, and she is well equipped because of you. This is not just daycare, it is preschool and love and heart. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

We were looking for a piano teacher for our 5-year-old son and was so glad to find Kyle of Katzhu…read morePiano. Kyle is a young and energetic UCSD grad (woo hoo go Tritons!) who is passionate about music. He makes learning piano fun and exciting for kids. Kyle was very patient and helpful with our son. He took the time to understand our son's learning ability to tailor his first lesson accordingly. He created such a positive and supportive learning environment where my son felt comfortable. He provided clear and concise instructions, so our son was able to follow along. I value Kyle's integrity because he was honest in advising that our son was a bit too young to comprehend piano instructions and might not fully benefit from taking lessons at this time. We appreciated Kyle's honesty and agreed with his professional opinion. We will revisit having him teach our son next year. I highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking for a great piano teacher. Kyle is a talented musician, a patient and helpful teacher, and he makes learning piano fun and exciting for everyone!

If you want your child to learn and enjoy playing piano, I highly recommend Kyle.
