Alum Reviews

★ ★ ★ ★

I LOVE this school. The professors are outstanding. In fact, several have provided their private cell phone numbers so that they could be reached anytime. I love that the classes are taken one at a time and that they are only 5 weeks long. I chose to take breaks in between classes, which was nice. At AcademicU, you pace yourself. The tuition is reasonable, but if you take the time to look for scholarships, you'll be fine.
