It is now acquired by Purdue University. The professors reply on time. The materials are well managed and the grading system is fairly straightforward. They also have added a laboratory for MS in Cybersecurity classes. There is also a fair disability accommodation when requested.

Online learning can be very difficult, so this is not for everyone. The first few terms are generally pretty easy, and are designed to get you comfortable with the class structure. However, once you're in the groove, the classes get hard, fast. Like any institute of higher education, you will take out only as much as you put in.

In post-MSN program-very sorry now; instructors do not know what's in syllabus & use outdated textbooks-do not review quizzes & insist on being called professor/doctor; other programs instructors by instructors addressed by first names-elitist attitude here. Very rigid grading-use rubric same from class to class-assembly line education-don't go
Overall 1.5
This was an online school which for the most part was pretty bad. The professors do not follow the syllabus for the papers and other projects that are due. The grammer by most of the teachers was aweful. Many of the teachers were inconsitent with their grading and getting back to the students when tehy asked questions. Clinical advisor was bad

I had to correct professors on more than one occasion. The level of intelligence of some is a joke.
