I find that Walden University's academic requirements are as rigorous as other traditional universities. Having obtained my BA and Master degrees from traditional universities, I find that the course work at Walden University to be more demanding. This is largely due to the online format, where it is impossible to hide in the back of the classroom, while everyone in the class, to include your professor, can see whether you have contributed to class discussions through the online postings. Walden University also has hired some very competent and experienced professors, who hold impressive credentials, with some from Ivy League schools. It is unfortunate to hear that a few students are complaining about not getting their degrees/certificates. Walden University, like any other reputable university, expects its students to complete their course work and earn their grades. Just like other universities, you will always find disgruntled students who did not work hard enough to earn a decent grade, and resorted to bashing the university in order to make themselves feel less responsible for their own failure and shortcomings. If you enroll in Walden University, be advised that you will need to work hard to earn a decent grade and the degree. If you failed, you have no one else to blame but yourself. Good luck on your endeavors at Walden University!
