The Strayer University District of Columbia

I am in my 2nd year at Strayer and have attended Online and on Campus classes. As far as the campus classes, I have found the majority of my Profressors are very educated, dedicated and helpful. Most were very willing to help each and every student actually understand and retain the material, not just know it long enough to pass the class. The option of online classes is great as it allows me, a single mother, to decide if I will have the opportunity to take a class on campus or if I need to compelte courses online. The online classes really require a student to be dependent. They have a lot of resources (slide presentation and additional material..)to help those who take classes online really actually learn. I like it because it doesn't force me to sit through a class for four hours, if it's something I feel I can guide myself through.

Yes, the classes are very expensive. (right now a little over $1500 per class) however, everyone is aware that college is expensive, no matter where you go. I am lucky to work for an employer that pays 6 credits worth of my tuition, so that has now allowed me to bump up to 3 classes per quarter.

The staff is sometimes difficult to work with, but I found out through personal experience, that you will find that in all aspects of life.

Strayer is very popular and well known in my state and area so I am hoping to have my degree well recognized once I graduate.
