Walden University students receive no support from the administration when problems are issues arise. If you have an issue with a grade, the instructor has the final authority. No need to appeal, because the appeal will not be in your favor. The appeal process has got to be the biggest joke. If you have an issue there is no one to talk to. You can send an email or two to the dean, but that won't guarantee you will be heard. Someone has to call them on their antics. The Federal Government should be reviewing their practices. In fact, I have heard nothing about their graduating rates.

The university changes its polices constantly. Moreover students have no advocates other than their student advisers. The turnover for advisers and administrators is very high.

This school is very expensive and few people in the field respect the degree. My advice is to skip Walden and go the traditional route or distance learning. Now, days most traditional schools have an online presence. Walden isn't the only horse and pony show. At more established schools, you get the support of a department and proven success. It will take Walden sometime to get up to par. In the meantime, their students are paying thousands of dollars throughout the year for Walden to pay top dollar to their faculty and purchase more media advertisements. Don't believe the hype. This school doesn't care about your student rights or whether you complete a degree.
