I can online classes and I really love this university. The academic counselors are amazing. The online classes are 5 weeks each so get ready to work. However, you finish faster. Teachers are great! Classes are small.

This is a good school with caring professors. They expect a lot from the students, but they help you succeed and equip you well for your future career. Overall, it's worth the exorbitant tuition because if you graduate, you will definitely be prepared to get an excellent job with above-average pay.

This school is a great university with high standards and amazing teachers that care. I've had one or two bad teachers, but the majority of them are beyond educated and truly care. With this education, I am sure I can succeed in life and I've made a couple good friends.

Current graduate student, previous undergrad student, both online only. The 5 ratings are because of my online experience only. The online psychologycounseling program is great for adults. Most professors are great, some are awful, but that's the real world. Overall great school!

I took classes at LeTourneau online for a year. I found a lot of positive reviews for the program I was looking into. I was severely disappointed. Everyone was close minded and quite negative. The teachers were not helpful and I found myself overwhelmed. I left and started my Master's Program elsewhere. NONE OF MY CLASSES TRANSFERRED.

Basically, coming from a big city there is not much to do at all around the school. It is also a very tiny school which, I personally do not like. Also, most people go home every weekend which makes the social life pretty boring. Especially when you are from out of state and really far from home and can not go home when you want to.
