 I attended The University of Phoenix from 2010-2015, and at first I was quite excited. I breezed through my first couple of years, and received my associates degree with a concentration in information technology/information technology support. I was quickly disappointed when I was unable to find a job, companies looked down on the University of Phoenix diploma's, but I was told by an advisor, that it was probably due to the fact that it was an associates degree. I decided to continue on with my education, because I believed my advisor. I enrolled in the bachelor program for healthcare administration, and soon began to wonder if I was really getting the information I needed for a job in healthcare administration.

I felt that I wasn't gaining any new knowledge that would assist me in getting a job in healthcare administration. I asked for help from my many advisors (it seemed advisors were being changed constantly) but they would just recommend that I use school resources to assist in finding a job, or figuring out which jobs I qualified for. My frustration was growing, and my grades started to suffer. I felt that I was doing class work for nothing, so why try my best. I have a medical background (was a CNA for 18 years, before an injured knee rendered me disabled.

I had always wanted to go into nursing or health care administration, because it was intriguing, and the money was appealing. I thought my background would give me a leg up on my competition. I was five classes away from graduating, when I was told my financial aid ran out. I asked for help from advisors, and even those who were higher up, but no one could help. I mentioned that I was disabled, but that didn't help either. I felt like the university abandoned me. I saw that at that time, the University of Phoenix was offering new students $10,000 off their tuition, I mentioned this to the senior advisor I was talking to, thinking that if they would give me $10,000 off my tuition, I would be able to graduate, but again I was shot Down.

I have been out of school since spring 2015, and an advisor still calls once in awhile, but they still never offer a solution. I see that money really talks, but if you don't have money, don't bother the University of Phoenix My associates diploma still hasn't opened any doors for me, and I see many other people with the same complaints I have, regarding the validity of the diploma and the program. I feel that I should be completely reimbursed for all the student loans I took out, and for what? An education that wasn't up to par with a community college. Please reconsider another college, don't go to the University of Phoenix.
