The University of Alabama

Date: Feb 09 2010
Major: Business - Management and Administration (This Major's Salary over time)
The University of Alabama is a Business. BIG Business. People should understand that. The place is designed to do everything but stick a vacuum cleaner in your pocket when you get on campus. And, the degree is a joke. Don?t expect to be able to get a job with your degree. The degree may have a little value within the State of Alabama; however, if you plan to work in ANY other state ? go elsewhere. UA is a place for stupid Greeks, getting drunk, and going to football games. It?s easy to get in and even a Monkey can graduate with a B average. Also, PLEASE don?t take out a student loan to go here! Trust me, you will regret it. I graduated a few years ago and I still haven?t been able to even touch the principle on my loans. Not only has my Alabama Degree not helped me with a career, it has permanently damaged my standard of living. I constantly struggle to pay my student loans every month. Each month is a reminder of how useless my UA degree has been. The Career Center is a joke. Basically, UA is a place that takes your money, gives you a worthless piece of paper (you pay for that too), and shows you the door. I made a mistake going there. Don?t make the same mistake I did. If you want a higher ed degree, at least go somewhere that will make your time (& money) worthwhile.
