I have been at Keller since January 10, going for my Master in Financial Management and Accounting (concentrate in CPA program). Like most of my classmates, we choose Keller because we can earn school credits by attending Becker CPA review classes. I like most of professors in my school. They are professional, intelligent and they bring real world experience into class. However, there are many other reasons I would not recommend Keller to anyone. First, the MFMA program is too expensive ($32,000) and the MFMA program does not cover all materials that are tested in CPA exam. Four Becker CPA review classes alone cost me $5,000. I can go to National University and pay only $20,000 and spend another $3,000 for Becker review. Yes, Keller students pay extra for Becker CPA review compare with non-Keller students. Second, school?s customer service is horrible. You can never get things done in an efficient and effective way. Third, my school let non-CPA staffs teach accounting classes. I wasted $2200 on an accounting course and I did not learn anything because the teacher is not a CPA. In fact, that teacher does not know much of accounting. Fourth, Devry/Keller is lack of professional networking for students. There are no student clubs or professional societies in this school. My accounting professor is kind enough to help students organize an accounting club in school. However, because Devry/Keller is a for profit company. The school prohibits any student clubs associated with Keller name. Keller is not a top MBA school. Without networking, how does Keller expect students to find a job?

I did not do much research on Keller before I enrolled the program last year. I am very regretted that I choose Keller. I have 3.9 GPA in school but I have to spend extra time study for my CPA exam because most of exam materials did not covered by Keller. For those who read my post, please consider all pro and con before you decide to enroll in Keller. You do not want to owe $32,000 in student loan with a degree that does not take you anywhere.
