    I earned my Bachelor of Science degree from Strayer University. I didn't experience any of the difficulties you mentioned.

    I'm glad you put this review! Before I knew about college hacking, I actually was going to go to strayer University. However, when I called to get more information about their programs, the advisor had poor customer service and he was incredibly rude. He did not sounded like he enjoyed working there, and almost sounded like he was yelling. Why would you talk that way if you want to get a student to give you money to attend the school? It just didn't make sense. I didn't know that they hadn't had an even worse reputation until now. Thanks! I decided to go with SNHU

    Awesome for you to cover this! One minor nitpick: while I still wouldn’t recommend them over others, one positive about Strayer is that they have their own in-house challenge exam series known (somewhat unoriginally) as the Strayer Challenge Exams. They’re similar in concept to the TECEPs, except their not calibrated to be used as transfer credit (a headache that it also shares with the ICE and the FUPE challenge exams). Taking out for obvious duplications of the CLEP and DSSTs, most of them cover Business and Criminal Justice courses. Still, boss review!

    • @CollegeHacked

      Great info, thanks for adding! 😄 It’s a shame so many schools that have in-house challenge exams don’t allow them to count for institutional credit.

    Strayer and Capella were so close to being the "big ones" for CBE. They own Sophia! They need to lean into that more.

      That would have been awesome, if they had leaned into it from the start. Just can’t imagine them giving up those profits willingly though.

    Finishing up my degree with American Public University. I think it is in a weird spot because it is regionally accredited, but it's for profit. I transferred in 30 credits and have already been accepted into 2 not-for-profit graduate schools with my APU degree. I definitely feel there were better options looking back but I feel APU/AMU is far from the worst.

    • @CollegeHacked
      @CollegeHacked  Před 3 měsíci

      It’s awesome to hear success stories! And once you start a masters no one really cares much about the undergrad institution anyway, so the degree did its job 👍🏼

      @yessrob4077 Před 3 měsíci

      I heard some good and bad things about AMU/APU. It’s good for Associates and Bachelors, but their Masters degrees aren’t that good. I got accepted by them, but I don’t know if I should accept their offer. My end goal is to go to graduate school.

      ​@@yessrob4077 Well I can only speak from my experience. With that said, I have not had any issues with getting accepted to any graduate schools through my BA degree. Other schools that I was considering but didn't apply to told me that they have no issues with my degree either. I guess it depends on what you want to do though. Best of luck!
