Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Business - Management and Administration  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright I am prior a Veteran of the Air Force and was stationed overseas. While there I learned the importance of a college degree. I took classes at University of Maryland on the base and found those classes to be challenging, but no more than Columbia Southern. I also took classes at American Military University (AMU) and found those classes to equal the ones here at Columbia Southern. AMU forces people to take classes that really aren't necessary. I've been in the Finance career field for 14 years and I can't understand why I need to take Algebra 1 or 2. You don't need Algebra to figure out someone is broke! That's the main reason I chose Columbia Southern; they didn't make me take unnecessary classes. I now have a Bachelors degree and making more money. I work for the Department of the Army as an Accountant and was praised majorly for getting my degree. I qualify for many jobs that were out of reach. For me it was the amount of respect I got for getting the degree that surprised me. The Veteran Affairs (VA), and the G.I. Bill pay for this 100%. I went to school for free! the Department of Defense does not pay for worthless degrees. It's not Harvard or Yale, but it will help open doors for you. If you work for the government and claim you have higher education it is verified by the Department of Education. Columbia Southern is recognized by them. That's good enough for me.

There is a lot of writing involved and it is very difficult to pass a course unless you read your textbook page by page. The courses are not impossible to pass but they are definitely challenging in a way where you feel like you are learning things that are necessary in your field in order for you to succeed when you graduate. My employer is reimbursing me for the tuition as well. Overall im a very satisfied CSU student and Im anticipating my BS in Business Administration early next year.

Once I graduated I was promoted to a Director's position and have been doing very good. I have several of my staff now attending CSU. I graduated from traditional colleges and found that either online or in a classroom - the work you as a student devotes is what determines the quality of the education. CSU was excellent.

I attended the University of West Georgia for two years until I tore my knee up playing football and had to have it rebuilt. I subsequently dropped out to have the surgery and take the long road to recovery. Couple in the fact that I was more interested in leisurely activities than studying. Still, I held a 3.7 GPA at the UofWG. I thought that my goal of obtaining a BA had passed me by until I heard about CSU. I did my research on this school as well as other online universities as being a husband, father, an employed full-time just does not allow one to attend a "brick-&-mortar" school very easily. After all of my research and weighing the pros and cons, I decided that CSU offered the best value. I expected the course work to be easier than it has been. The reading of chapters is absolutely necessary to answer the questions and write the essays/papers. Citing you references is required and the discussion questions require you to actually have thoughtful input. Not just a yes or no response. I can say without a doubt that I have learned quite a bit in my studies and that it does indeed apply to the work that I perform. I actually use some of the textbooks as reference at work because they contain quite a bit of useful information. CSU is allowing me to achieve my goal of finishing my bachelor's degree. I wish my Grandmother had lived long enough to see me graduate as it was her wish that I do so (and she often reminded me). Through her inspiration and CSU's outstanding program, I will achieve my goal in 2010. Even if I never receive a promotion or whatnot from earning my BA, I can cross that goal off of my "bucket list." If you are looking for an exceptional value that fits your schedule... then CSU is the best choice out there. It won't cost you an arm and a leg and you will be CHALLENGED! Best of luck and may you find the success you are seeking. Useful Schoolwork: A+, Campus Aesthetics: B Have a Question?
