Master
programs at AIU are designed for students who are practing
in their current field. These degrees are not for individuals
who want to change careers. This was a big mistake.
I consider the education I received at AIU as a
crash course in management.Unfortunately, the company I am employed by
does not recognize this program or school as a valid
education. People who are not holding position in management should
not be admitted to the MBA program at AIU.
The
rewards I got from AIU is a $30,000 debt.
My salary or position have not changed, therefore I am
left with a student loan I cannot afford. My view
on AIU education is added responsibility on an already strapped
for cash budget and added stress. Basically, I have dropped
the title of MBA on resumes hoping I can get
a higher paying position using my undergraduate degree.
I
am in the process of studying for a Master Degree
at Northwestern University hoping this will enhance my efforts in
obtaining a job that will pay for AIU and
Northwestern education.
The bottom line is I will be
in debt for a long time.
High school and college
students should be very careful in chosing what school to
attend. First, accleration programs are extremely high and job prospect
are slim if you are not currently practing in the
field.
I would recommend choosing a school that offer
internships and job placement to better one chances of
finding employment in their chosen field of study.
