They do not claim to be the only school in the country with the block system, they are the only PUBLIC university in the United States that uses the block system |
Going to this University was a Nightmare - When your grade shows up as a F and you had a A grade trying to get this changed never happened with 2 of the classes taken even with the Instructor trying to help - after months of trying to fix this problem - it never happened - everything they list on their website about helping student's and being there for them is all false. The treatment of the staff was horrible - the money spent on the classes was lost - |
Many of the Student's drop out of UMW within the 1st to 2nd year due to the failure in classes due to the Block System - the online classes students fail - the rather have the classes in a classroom setting - but the University makes more money if the Instructor is teaching more classes online - its hard enough teaching a full semester class in 18 days - then put it into a online class is not doing well for many student's . Then the student's have to retake the classes sometime more then twice. The harder classes they should also have in a classroom setting. |

The only positive about this school is the block system. They claim they are the only school in the country that uses this format but they are not. The business and financial aid do not communicate or work well with each other. It is Impossible to get anything accomplished without being constantly a pest. They have extremely backwards polices that make everything difficult. They will not send out refunds check until the first day of class so you have no other choice than to buy your books and supplies from the tiny overpriced bookstore on campus. They have shut down and stopped all book trading programs that students or faculty have set up so that you can only get your books from them.On the other had most of the teachers are very friendly and wonderful. They are great and the only the positive to this school.
