Do not go to this school. It is too expensive and you will not get quality education.
Overall 1
Professors that don't care, have no support for students, are ghost in online classrooms, have a individualistic thinking, are not diverse, and in the education field for only money this is the school for you. On the other hand if you have an opinion, a minority, and looking for mentorship and educational direction this is not the school to be in

These classes R a joke. I did not learn a single thing @ the Lubbock or Virtual campus! Had a few really nice and kind teachers who deserved to work at a better institution. I learned more at a 2 yr college than this so called university. 2 teachers did not even do anything as all of the coursework was online. If you live in Lubbock go to TX Tech!
