Great school overall. Being in an online program, you must commit yourself to achieving school. Majority of the professors genuinely care about you and your education. The best resource is their online library. Once you figure out how to use it, nothing else like it.
University of Phoenix
Attending the University of Phoenix has been a positive and flexible experience, especially for working adults or those managing busy schedules.

Amount of sources
Throughout my experience, not only have I had the convenience of studying from my home but it also taught me self-discipline. Schedules were easy to follow and they were laid out and well-organized. Sources were reliable due to counselors calling monthly to check up on their enrolled students and advise them on a direction for their careers.
