The Strayer University District of Columbia

Date: Jul 17 2007
Major: Accounting (This Major's Salary over time)
I attended the Montgomery campus (at the time - now Rockville) and had great success with the in-person classes offered (although more offerings would have been ideal). Unfortunately, my thesis for my Master's degree was an online course that did not lend itself well to a lot of interaction. HOWEVER, I would say that my Strayer experience was a positive one. I was able to interact with many people in similar situations to me (working full-time, attending school part-time). Financial aid was NEVER a problem and the people at the Montgomery campus were ALWAYS helpful and able to get me the funding sources I needed whether it was temporary or long-term (my employer reimbursed me for 1/2 of the cost). I am now considering a Ph.D. and would consider Strayer again, but unfortunately, they do not offer it.

In the end, Strayer is what you make it and what you WANT to get out of it. I definitely recommend the Rockville campus for the Accounting program. Beware online courses though, they can be brutal at ANY school if you don't know what you are doing.
