When I tried to pick up where I left off, an apathetic voice on the phone told me my program had been discontinued and I could either a). Start over with a different program, or b). Walk away. I spent hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars working toward my Ph.D. only to have them pull the rug out from under me when I was almost ready to graduate.

I have never taken a course at the University of Minnesota (UMN). I used to hang out in this area…read moremainly because I like Dinkytown, which is the heart of UMN student life. I like the stores and good eats in this neighbourhood. I've always felt comfortable visiting universities and checking out campuses. It's no different here. I had a friend who got his master and doctorate degrees from this university, so I got to hear about his experiences when we both lived in Minnesota. I am a hockey fan. The UMN has a decent hockey program, both men's and women's. You often see local talent make it to the Minnesota Wild and Minnesota Frost rosters, respectively. Alex Goligoski, who recently retired from the NHL, played for the Minnesota Golden Gophers at UMN before he was drafted by the Pittsburgh Penguins. He won the Stanley Cup with this team, but spent his last three years with the Wild as a defenseman. During his 1,000th NHL game, he scored the game-winning goal, which was quite the storybook ending. As of late, Brock Faber is a solid defenseman on the Wild. He is starting his second full season with the team and was captain of the Minnesota Golden Gophers. He is young, but exceptionally skilled and mature beyond his years. Taylor Heise, who is a forward for the PWHL's Minnesota Frost, played for the Minnesota women's hockey team. The Frost won the Walter Cup and she won the Ilana Kloss Playoff MVP award. If I were looking into academics, UMN has both computer science and mathematics departments that would have appealed to me. It is similar to York University in that you can choose to do either a Bachelor of Arts or Science in either field. Only a Master of Science is available in both. You can also study towards a PhD in either domain. UMN has a Bachelor of Science in Technical Writing and Communication. Many universities start off offering Technical Writing degrees as an Arts degree. I like the shift with universities going with a Bachelor of Science. Technical writers are needed more than ever to explain technical, complex details as clearly and concisely in engineering, medical, and more. It's makes more sense that it's a Science degree. This university does not offer graduate degrees in Technical Writing. It's one reason why I didn't do my Master's here. I don't have any inclination to get a doctorate. If UMN offered one in my chosen field, I'd consider it if the price is affordable and I could do it remotely. It was nice being back in the area. (394)

I transferred here from a community college to finish my bachelors. And I am extremely frustrated,…read moreangry and upset by the lack of support from all staff and professors. They advertise wanting to support students, but every time I had shown up with a concern or issue, I was constantly dismissed and felt invalidated. They don't care about your education or you as an individual. They care more about how you're gonna pay. I don't recommend the school for anyone. You're paying thousands of dollars to experience stress and anxiety.

I'm writing this review as an adult learner. So that may be a different perspective than someone…read morestill in high school looking at colleges. For an adult learner, they offer the "Augsburg for Adults" or AFA program. This program recognizes the needs of a busy adult with a full time job and a family and still allows you to complete a traditional 4 year bachelor's degree, at a real accredited college. Signing up as an adult, you are allowed to transfer in a lot of the credits you may have done at a prior college. If you started but never finished, or did a 2 year at a community college, or even a little bit of trade school (or for-profit schooling) you will have some of your credits transfer. Classes are offered every other weekend, in 4 hour long sessions. So the classroom time equals out to be the exact same as a regular daytime student in a traditional program.... you are just condensing it into bigger blocks, so you don't have to show up as often. Having class only twice a month works well for me as an adult. The cost is reasonable for a private college - though much higher than a community college. A traditional 4 credit class at Augsburg in the AFA program is around $1,700. They work with your employer if you have tuition reimbursement available. Also, this isn't really well known, but there is a regional student loan program out of North Dakota called the DEAL loan. This is probably one of the best private loans available out there. Luckily Minnesota students are eligible (only3 or 4 states are eligible). Look into that and into federal stafford loans if you need some financing. The instructors have generally been top notch professors, although I have had a couple stinkers. One was a tenured professor who was absolutely full of himself, and one was a grad student who was trying to make some money as a part time instructor. Both were terrible. Otherwise though I've been very pleased with the teaching talent at Augsburg. If you're an adult learner, I find that the AFA program is a really good fit and there is a lot of support for adult learners. The staff in this program are very supportive in making you feel like you get the whole college experience yet also have your unique needs as an adult student taken care of. It's been a great experience for me. I've got less than a year left to graduation with two degrees!

When people ask me why I chose Walden, the answer is actually pretty simple. I had been a…read moreregistered nurse for over 25 years, and I knew I wanted to become a Family Nurse Practitioner. I needed a program that would fit into a very busy life, working, raising a family, and juggling all of life's responsibilities. Walden gave me the flexibility to pursue that dream without putting everything else on hold. Throughout the program, there were so many instructors who challenged me to think beyond memorizing information. They pushed me to ask "why," to look at the evidence, and to always keep the patient at the center of every decision. That mindset has stayed with me long after graduation. Today, I'm practicing as a Family Nurse Practitioner, helping patients improve their health every day. I also have the opportunity to educate and coach people through weight management and lifestyle changes, which is something I'm incredibly passionate about. My degree didn't just change my career, it expanded the number of lives I'm able to positively impact. If you're trying to decide whether Walden is the right choice, I'd say don't let fear or self-doubt make the decision for you. It won't always be easy, and there will be days when you wonder if you can do it. I know I had those moments too. But if you stay committed, ask for help when you need it, and keep your eyes on your goal, you'll be amazed at what you're capable of. Looking back, choosing Walden was one of the best decisions I made for my career, and I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

All the professors have amazing credentials and experience, but without lectures and communication, it's hard to learn from their valuable knowledge. Several don't even post their contact info, leaving students to search for it and reach out to other Walden staff. Ridiculous. Also, they pride themselves on price transparency-THEY LIE. Thusfar they have increased my degree cost by $15,000, despite what they told me ON A RECORDED LINE before I enrolled. DECEITFUL, UNETHICAL, HORRIBLE school. The only benefit is that it's fairly flexible because there are no synchronous courses (two for the entire degree that last only a few weeks). Remember, the phone lines are recorded. I recommend that you record them as well. If enough people get scammed we can do a class action lawsuit. They've already had to pay out because of predatory practices against black students.
