| Super Brilliant | AIU's "adviors" / salesmen are cutthroat and get to the point of simply being annoying. I had 2 admissions advisors as the first one fell off the face of the earth after our first phone call. Had I not initiated obtaining more information I would have never heard from anyone again. The only reason why I fell into the AIU trap is because I'm an employee there. The undergraduate program is simply busy work and unfullfilling. It doesn't take much to get an A in these classes as long as you know how to google information and properly cite your source in APA format. The Professors are friendly but at times inaccessible. I will definitely not return to AIU to continue my education once I've completed my associates degree here. | Faculty Accessibility: B, Education Quality: F |  | | |

Word of advice. Do not attend this college if you think you will learn something. I took my classes here because I have been working in the IT field for well over 20 years, with my first computer a TRS-80. I knew a two-year degree was too fast, but because I knew all the subject matter in great detail, I found the classes more annoying than challenging. But it surprised me to no end how some students would simply paste a WIKIPedia article as their assignment - and yet still be around weeks later as part of my "group project" - GROAN! How the heck? I would think they would have either been so far behind or removed from the class. My favorite was an IM from a fellow student asking me about the Visual Studio assignment (which was to simply demonstrate you actually installed the program) - this was the second class in programming which required the use of Visual Studio - yet this student said, "...and I'm not sure what Visual Studio is? Can I find it online? Where did you get your scripts from?" Bottom line... Yes, it's all about the money, and even though I know my degree isn't as valuable as a Brick and Mortar degree, I was able to complete it in half the time. Yes more expensive and not as valuable, but it still got me that "..he's got a bachelor's" check mark which got me in the door and allowed me to sell my REAL skills. Which is my point. Don't use this degree as your "selling point" to an employer. This degree may get you in the door, but the classes teach you nothing in the way of real skills. Some may not care about this and simply get a job with this degree in areas they clearly are not qualified to work, but that's on them. | Perceived Campus Safety: A+, Education Quality: F |  | | |
