OK - For starters, I've spent time reading a large majority of negative posts regarding the U of P on this forum, yet most of these posters do not provide comments that explain their stance. There seems to be a lot of bashing without valid reasoning to back it up. Please give me the lowdown on them; the good as well as the bad, in relation to their Master's level programs. The reason I'm considering U of P is because I am wrapping up my Bachelor's at a college that has national accreditation (vs.
Iso 14001 Standard Pdf. Regional) and found out that they will take the BS at face value and I can move straight into their Master's program without worry about what will and will not transfer over. I am considering their Master's in Administration of Justice and Security. This appeals to me because I plan to be working full time and need to be flexible with schooling. Without going into too much detail, yet I'd be happy to provide it if it will provide better answers, I have close to a decade of experience in the field in which I plan to apply this degree. I have my sights set on several federal positions in a very select field. These positions include the Federal Railroad Administration (Operating Rules), Department of Homeland Security (Surface Inspector), and Department of Transportation (Rail Division).
While I realize that I do not need this degree to qualify for these jobs, it cannot hurt to have a graduate degree. Any and all quality comments will be appreciated. If you're going to bash, please give valid reasoning. If you know of any other colleges that offer Criminal Justice degrees (Master's level) that are fully accepting of national accreditation, please provide a link for them.
U of P will be conducting a seminar at my current school later this month. Can anyone give me good questions to ask the recruiter? I thank in advance everybody who can contribute, especially those familiar in my selected field/job endeavor's. I think you should post this question at degreeinfo as the folks there will provide the best answers.
My thoughts on UoP is that they are outrageously expensive compared to other options. For example, Ashford University (RA) will accept credits from RA and approved-on-their-list BA/BS from an NA school. It doesn't look like they have a program in the field you are looking in but it does show that there are RA schools that will accept NA credits on a case by case basis. If the coursework in your Bachelors program is reviewed by ACE there is a much better chance of acceptance of that coursework at an RA school. I would just caution you not to jump and pay the high costs at UoP because you think there are not better options out there.
Here are my criticisms: --Most of their programs are not accredited by that field. Programs like graphic design should be accredited by NASAD. This applies to many other fields as well.
Accreditation means that their curriculum is rigorous enough to prepare the student for work in that field. University of Phoenix, UOPX, and other for-profit schools are not accredited where they need to be, because their programs do not teach students the material they need to know. Some of UOPXs programs are accredited but they gloss over all the ones that aren't, and often lure unsuspecting students into their trap. --They have no admissions criteria. If you give anyone and everyone a degree, then the degree is worthless. And that is what UOPX does. Turning down poor-quality students would mean turning down tuition payments from them, and thus losing revenue, and thus losing profits.
