    I earned my Bachelor of Science degree from Strayer University. I didn't experience any of the difficulties you mentioned.

    I'm glad you put this review! Before I knew about college hacking, I actually was going to go to strayer University. However, when I called to get more information about their programs, the advisor had poor customer service and he was incredibly rude. He did not sounded like he enjoyed working there, and almost sounded like he was yelling. Why would you talk that way if you want to get a student to give you money to attend the school? It just didn't make sense. I didn't know that they hadn't had an even worse reputation until now. Thanks! I decided to go with SNHU

    Awesome for you to cover this! One minor nitpick: while I still wouldn’t recommend them over others, one positive about Strayer is that they have their own in-house challenge exam series known (somewhat unoriginally) as the Strayer Challenge Exams. They’re similar in concept to the TECEPs, except their not calibrated to be used as transfer credit (a headache that it also shares with the ICE and the FUPE challenge exams). Taking out for obvious duplications of the CLEP and DSSTs, most of them cover Business and Criminal Justice courses. Still, boss review!

    Finishing up my degree with American Public University. I think it is in a weird spot because it is regionally accredited, but it's for profit. I transferred in 30 credits and have already been accepted into 2 not-for-profit graduate schools with my APU degree. I definitely feel there were better options looking back but I feel APU/AMU is far from the worst.

    I heard some good and bad things about AMU/APU. It’s good for Associates and Bachelors, but their Masters degrees aren’t that good. I got accepted by them, but I don’t know if I should accept their offer. My end goal is to go to graduate school.

Other schools that I was considering but didn't apply to told me that they have no issues with my degree either. I guess it depends on what you want to do though. Best of luck!
