University of Phoenix (Campus) Reviews of MBA Programs

"I love the format of classes, the relevant experience of the instructors/professors, and availability of programs my school offers me. I cannot wait to finish and wear the lucky socks."

"The quality of some of the students for the MBA program not up to par. The courses should be extended to 8 weeks to cover the appropriate material. The schedule makes it very easy for someone that works full time to go to school full time as well."

"Pros are the education and timeline of the course- 6 weeks to complete each course is adequate time to balance life,family, work and education. Teachers are experienced and approachable. The Cons are the cost to the program and having to travel 1/2 hr to get to campus to take class."

"The pros of my graduate program is that it is design for the adult learner. The program is geared towards preparing you for a career and the curriculum is focused on relevant data that can be applied in any position. The program also assists in the development of entrepreneur mindset. The con of the program is that at times the program felt rushed. Did not have time to process information."

"The pros of UOP are the flexibility of classes and the available resources. The main con of UOP is the cost of a private education."

"Pros are the faculty really want to see students suceed. Cons library closes at 1pm"

"Pros The graduate program has allowed me to be detailed in my search for the right career. I have gained knowledge of what is required in the current work force. The program has allowed me to build on my skills, and also why certain skills are important. Cons The graduate program has hard time in networking in real time the connect with the career placement, not enough real company placements. Links are provided but not taken seriously for hire."

"The pros of my graduate program are the accessibility of the schedule of classes. I have a very busy work schedule and if the university did not have accelerated classes I would not have been able to attend the program or any in class program. One con is that the workload could be overwhelming at times, as far as the required readings, but you just have to take time for that."

"Great networking with this school. I met my best friend, and my husband. I loved the accelerated classes and the class types for MBA. I did love working in the groups. However, my first experience was not good. I had to switch groups and then it was great!!"

"Pros- Being able to work full time and attend evening classes once a week for 4 hours! The online forums available to students helps stay in touch with classmates during the week. Cons- The classes are kind of small, sometimes it would be nice to have a larger student body to interact/network with."

"UOPX provided a platform that allowed me pursue an education while working full-time and taking care of my personal responsibilities. The MBA program was very challenging, but considering business administration was out of my comfort zone, I strongly believe the curriculum's design is substantial and challenging. I am grateful for my enhanced research skills as well as my honed public speaking abilities and new found knowledge. I am a proud PHOENIX. However, the only cons for me are cost and the fact that some people view UOPX degrees as worthless or sub-par. I strongly attest that for a person who values education (me), UOPX was a good fit, and I employ the skills learned to my personal, academic, and professional lives. I am forever indebted to UOPX for my experiences and rewarding educational journey."

"I like the program overall. I like how our professors need to be in a job in the field they are teaching. the one thing I don't like is not being able to miss more then one class per course."

"The best component of the graduate program is a norm of UOP, which is working in groups. It allowed me to connect with strangers and work together, even through challenges, just as we would in the work environment. It would have been an added bonus for the Philadelphia Campus students if we received free parking every week. Although $6 a night wasn't too expensive for center city, but it would have been a great benefit."
