I have been enrolled in the University of Metaphysical Sciences for the last couple of years. I very HIGHLY recommend it for those who wish to expand their awareness as well as UNDERSTANDING, and practical application of the topics offered at this distance learning institution. PLEASE NOTE: My opinions are formulated from my own experiences and studies of over 70 years. My studies have encompassed books and courses in metaphysics and metaphysical churches (several) as well as physics, mathematics, psychology, religion, literature, computer science, foreign language, became certified in construction management, and studied political science and world and US history. In order to accomplish that "feat", I had to attend several "accredited" universities during the years my husband moved me and our children all over the USA because of his employment as a Civil Engineer. During THAT period of my life I attempted to secure an "accredited" degree. (i.e. Wilson Jr. College, College of the Desert, Oceanside-Carlsbad Jr. College, University of IL, San Jose State University, and University of Hawaii... not necessarily in THAT order). Nevertheless, unfortunately when my husband died at the young age of 52, I needed to become "gainfully" employed. So WHAT does this have to do with UMS? UMS has been both my inspiration and my anchor to ground me and stabilize me by introducing to me HOW TO USE my own mental and spiritual ENERGY I sorely needed over the years I was a widow so I could heal myself physically, mentally, and spiritually. "YES" heal myself "physically". I haven't needed to visit a medical doctor for decades. Furthermore, I am now remarried to a wonderful, supportive man (I learned HOW to attract a new mate through metaphysics) with whom I can share these metaphysical energies. UMS IS "NOT" FOR THE FAINT OF HEART who are seeking to support themselves with a huge salary and/or societal accolades. Nevertheless UMS "is" instead a place to EDUCATE oneself in methods and principles that span 1000's of years ... methods and principles ... that when used "properly" show a person HOW to utilize ones OWN higher mental and spiritual capacities to MANIFEST happiness, health, and sufficient abundance for the necessities of Life. STILL want ONLY an accredited university? OK ... better find at least $30,000 a year to get THEIR accredited degree and then HOPE that you can pay back your student LOAN by the time you reach MY age.

This is to certify that I am a student at the University of Metaphysical Sciences (UMS). I enrolled my metaphysical studies in May 2016 started pursuing my study at Bachelor's degree level and subsequently completed at Master degree level with a minimum 5000 words thesis submission under review. Currently, I am working towards my 10,000 words Doctoral dissertation. Throughout the course, I enjoy receiving well-researched in-depth course materials covering a wide range of metaphysical subject written by passionate authors and writers of UMS. I could sense the deep love and passion these writers have exhibited, putting out great efforts in producing excellent course contents supported with series of published books references as a back-up, all for the great value and benefits for students like me in terms of receiving excellent quality content delivery and enormous time saving too. The course materials (total 80 topics) are well supported by meditation exercises, guided and orchestrated by none other than the Founder of UMS, Christine Breese providing students with a hand-held experiential journey. Notwithstanding, I received constant guidance and communications from caring UMS staffs and advisors alike which again they deliver great service in helping students and others of immense value and benefits. The greatest value of all: "I found my life purpose through UMS." My special thanks and deep appreciation with love goes to Christine Breese, Devon Love, Margaret Branch, Casey, Judy, Alecia and others from UMS. Kudos UMS! Joyous Blessings... From Jeremy (Ju) Huang, Malaysia. read more

I was surprised to read this other review. This university is accredited by; AADP, American Association Of Drugless Practitioners http://www.aadp.net AAMA, American Alternative Medical Association http://www.joinaama.com I just started courses and the staff and material is excellent. And the courses are focused on knowledge of meditation studies and background. As well as identifying personality types. You cant expect much from any metaphysical schools in the aspect of wanting government approved and reparability by their standards. The government will only approve schools that involve the major subjects. and do not support any free thinking. The founder has a clean record so who cares if they have a church... Anything to do with God or a higher power and people seem to freak out and run away. But it is the most constant thing in the history of mankind... yet people are scared of it and only do what the government condones. If you are interested in attending a school that teaches you about yourself, others, as well as the history of religion, meditation and energies; I would recommend this school. read more

University of Metaphysical Sciences (UMS) is one of the few trustworthy schools available offering degree programs where one can learn in-depth about Metaphysical Topics, Religion & Spirituality. I was skeptical before I started my Bachelor Degree studies but was impressed with the diversity and breadth of topics, staff and instructor support and ability to distance study vs. taking several years to travel back and forth to attend classes in another State or City. I completed my Doctorate Degree in Spiritual Counseling in 2009 and was able to directly apply my education to both my healing practice and my personal life. I have a Bachelor Degree in Physics from a State University but was unable to find a degree education source for my Metaphysical Interests until I discovered UMS. The fact that UMS is still operating a decade after I graduated is a testament to the important work they are performing and the valuable service provided to their students. read more

I have tremendously enjoyed my experience at UMS. I have just submitted my Master's Thesis and will begin working on my PhD. I have loved the self paced format and found the subject matter and reference materials very interesting, thorough with a very robust list of resources for further reading and study. I already have a Bachelor's degree and 2 Master's degrees including an MBA. These degrees from UMS are a labor of love for me to be able to be certified in Holistic coaching. I have always wanted to get my Phd and now I will be able to. I look forward to writing my dissertation and leveraging it for a book and online course to follow. I have found the staff to be highly responsive to my calls and very loving and supportive. I worked out a payment plan and it has always worked for my budget. I am in my 60's so this worked perfectly for me to get a later life education to have credentials for my own business in retirement! read more

UMS is professional, ethical and well run being led and staffed by people who are responsive and genuinely caring. I was drawn in by the desire to add some knowledge around my interest in metaphysics. The course content and choices are fantastic and really provide a unique and broad baseline, whilst providing you with the material to go as deep as you want. Whilst my interest was personal development the opportunity to overlap into professional development and service to others is definitely possible, when informed and inspired by the course material. Being accredited is a definite boon in establishing the validity of your learning. Whilst any course involving distance learning requires the learner to be self resilient, disciplined and self-directed, the support that is available via the office staff and various social media groups will add real value to some if and when needed. read more

I agree with Ms. D. Over the last year I have been researching Metaphysics schools; and the courses offered through UMS is actually perfect for what Im looking for... its not all witchcraft crap at all... I think its great that they have reiki and the enneagram as part of the program. I think I will register this year. They staff is awesome too. And I dont care if they have a church- as long as it has a clean rep. And Metaphysics is about spirituality isn't it... so why is this surprising? I do think they should changes the purple website- it does make it look kinda cheap.. but In my opinion what they offer seems better than the competitors. Honestly if you are "different" enough to go to school for Metaphysics I (you) wont care about Credibility and societies standards... as long as it is honest... from what I see I would recommend... read more

I started with the UMS program in late 2019. The courses are wonderful, all interesting and well-written, complete with meditations and recommended reading, and all Very affordable (I imagine because the founder isn't governed by greed). It's so much for the money: on top of the courses themselves, the personal time and attention that the Exam Proctor and advisors spend helping students to become the best that we can be on the deepest levels so we are equipped on all levels to be Healers and Lights with integrity AND skill and personal development. Healing begins with the self, and we are coached and guided with each meditation commentary submitted; and I feel that I have grown more in the past six months than in any other "growth spurts" in my life. In fact, I know this to be the case. read more

This is a powerful life changing program for anybody seeking spiritual and consciousness path. Including education on alternative holistic health. I have attended public community college, state university, and private non profit schools through a variety of completed programs. Some of which are considered Ivy league institutions. This program at University of Metaphysical Sciences both meets and exceeds the quality of education I have experienced from the diversity of institutions. It is different, but it is priceless. If you are not on a spiritual path or don't want to learn about holistic alternative health, then this program may not for you. I will report back once I fully complete the program. read more

I went through UMS 7 years ago and found it to be one of the best decisions of my life. The program was enlightening on all levels and I really grew and expanded my Knowledge and awareness. UMS has great customer service and The program is very well organized. I absolutely loved the courses as they were very engaging. To this day I still reread and listen to the CD recordings. This was truly a lifelong education for me that changed me at the core. Registration for classes was an easy process. I Obtained my Bachelors and Masters from UMS. It is a well rounded curriculum that provides insight into our inner and outer world. I am grateful to Christine for her vision to create UMS. read more

Love UMS! Prior to UMS I attended and graduated from comminity college, ASU and career specific graduate schools, UMS is the only University I have found that lets you explore all of Metaphysical Sciences in depth and encourages extra exploration into subjects you never realized you were interested in! The instructors and advisors are very hands on and assist in answering every question, always finding ways to help you overcome difficulties. Have completed through Master portion of the program and working on PhD & Doc. These studies have greatly enhanced my life and the lives of all those around me. Cynthia FuQua, Phoenix, AZ read more

Every time I read a UMS course I am flooded with the energy and love that they put into creating the material. There will be many courses that I will re-review after I have completed my degree plan, because reading them is just as enjoyable as reading my favorite books. Thank you for all the time, effort and love you have put into creating such high quality material. Also the staff and counselors are amazing. They treat you like you are a part of their family and check in on you to motivate you to keep going or to make sure everything is going well. This is a phenomenal education experience. read more

I graduated from the University of Metaphysical Sciences, where I genuinely enjoyed exploring a curriculum that delved into various cultures, religions, and the broader spiritual and universal journey of life. Unlike traditional government-backed universities, the focus here is on well-being and gaining a deeper understanding of our diverse history and its individual significance. I chose this path to enrich my perspective, not based on others' opinions or perceptions. If you're drawn to the curriculum, it's worth pursuing. My educational journey was truly fulfilling and transformative. read more

My decision to take this course has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. It has changed my life. I thought I was fairly knowledgeable about metaphysical things, but I have learned about fields that I had never heard of. I feel I have leveled up several times since I began my studies. The material is well written and easy to understand, even in areas I was totally unfamiliar with the subject matter. I would be happy to give it five stars twice. If you are interested in growing spiritually and gravitating to a higher level of consciousness, this is the place to start. read more

I have been a student of UMS for a couple of years now. I have enjoyed the courses and the staff. It is very well organized and user friendly. As anything you get what you put into it. You want a degree and legal minister-ship. You can get it here. It is very affordable and well accredited. I will complete my Masters degree and carry on with the Phd. program. UMS will deffinately give me the tools to accomplish my life long goals. It does take effort and work to complete which is well worth it. But again the outcome, as with everything is up to YOU! read more

I've been a student with UMS for sometime now, as I'm taking my dandy time, but that's part of what I love. It's self paced. There's no pressure to finish by a certain time and there have been moments where the staff has checked in on me if there was long gaps between me completing courses! I've always felt supported and have had questions answered promptly. The material is great and covers any topic under the metaphysical umbrella that you could think of. Can't wait to add to my practice of being a clinical hypnotherapist. read more

I enjoyed working on my Bachelor's degree much more than I expected! UMS introduced me to more than just a bunch of new information; it helped refine my ability to think, analyze, and intuit from many different perspectives, opening doors of wisdom and inspiration that one rarely receives from traditional education. I am now very close to finishing my Master's. I was surprised at how the staff was willing and able to give me such amazing personal attention! Thank you, UMS !!! read more

A fantasic school! It is an affordable way to explore spirituality at your own pace. The staff have always been friendly and courteous with me. Not only that, but they really have gone the extra mile to create a safe space for me to learn and grow despite my busy schedule and personal quirks. UMS takes time to get to know you as a person and help guide you through the process of obtaining your accredited degree whenever and wherever you need! read more

UMS is a wonderful choice to learn some great tools to help yourself and others who come into your life needing guidance with the tough stuff we all go thru. They go in depth in so many important topics that we should have been learning all along. This has been such a well rounded educational experience for me and I can see how this education will be one of the best things I have ever done for myself, worth its weight in gold. read more
