If you ca afford to go somewhere else, do it. For what Oakwood charges, the campus should be much better than it is and they should have online classes.

Getting cleared is vital. if you are not cleared and you finish the sem. they will drop your grades as if you never came. Do not call for help, They like to give the run around on the phone. Visit all offices IN-PERSON. Ask about prof's BEFORE taking a class or you WILL REGRET IT! Voice your concerns until someone listens!! Work Hard/Study! & PRAY!
