I graduated with my Associates degree last June and have been unable to use my degree. I was told my tuition would be $10,480 for my associates degree and that I would get enough federal aid to cover my cost and they would take care of everything. I filled out the paper work to received $9,500 in federal aid and $5,400 in pel grant, which was more than enough to cover my entire tuition. Un be told to me, the school filed the paper work several times resulting in over $25,000 in student loans that I am now being held accountable for. I only approved for one disbursement for my Associates degree and one for my Bachelors program when I started try bachelors program last year. I now have over $40,000 of student loan debt and only approved of of less than half of that. No one has considered my associates degree from UOP as a degree and now I'm finding out that Bachelors degree that I'm nearly half way done with, is no more useful than my associates degree. I'm pissed and will be demanding that the school pay off my loans 100%. If I can't use my degree, I'm not paying for it. I'm pissed I've waisted the last 4 years of my life working SO HARD to earn two worthless meaningless degrees. <br />read about <a href="http://www.insideuop.com/node/21487" rel="nofollow">Earnings and Enrollment Slide at University of Phoenix</a>Earnings and Enrollment Slide at University of Phoenixhttp://www.insideuop.com/node/21487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3551647111924186318.post-43923002584039967922013-02-09T17:38:00.202-05:002013-02-09T17:38:00.202-05:00I could not possibly agree with you more !
U of P...I could not possibly agree with you more !<br /><br />U of P has two goals:<br /><br />1) Make it ridiculously easy to get a degree, which in this case means "credentials".<br /><br />2) Siphon off GI Bill, employer tuition funding, and anything else they can sop up.Unigovhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15532072215831286109noreply@blogger.com
