Answer 2

no and no . for some some reason, the tution at University Of Phoenix online  is over-the-top expensive. It's not exactly smart and economical for some no-name, low-esteemed, unrecognized "institution" require their student to pay a ridiculous amount of money. Many employers hate the school and refuse to hire graduates from there.

Undergraduate tuition is $494- $515 per credit hour. Graduate tuition is $612 per credit. ARE THEY SERIOUS!?!?!? It's not even an affluent college at all and they're really pushing the envelope. If money is a serius issue, the most wise and conscientious thing is to go to state college. You'll save much more money compared to University Of Phoenix online.  

Answer 3

I knew a nurse who claimed to be a teacher there. she was a freak!

Answer 4

It really depends on your field of study. I have never had a problem getting a job with any of my nursing degrees: Associates from a private college, Bachelor's from a state university, and Master's from an online university (UOP).

Call the professional organizations/governing body for the profession you are interested in. Talk to recruiters/potential employers before you register. Do they require you to attend a certain type of school? Does you school need to be accredited? By any specific bodies? Use this information when you are looking at any school, not just UOP.

I enjoyed UOP more than the traditional school I got my AA and BS from. My masters program consisted of discussions, papers, and projects. For me, the benefit of being able to do school work on my own schedule outweighed the cons of the high cost.

I was working as a nursing educator at a university hospital while attending UOP. My supervisors were supportive of me going to school and liked that I wasn't taking off work to go to traditional classes. I was able to use many of my work projects for school projects also, killing two birds with one stone so to speak.

Within two months of graduating I had two new job offers (one from a private college and one from the university hospital). I was even on a phone interview in less than an hour of commencement, I was still in my regalia even.

I took the job teaching nursing at the private college. That same semester they hired another faculty member who was completing her Masters at UOP. I am now back at the university hospital, and another nurse is completing her Masters at UOP.
