"I was part of the classes of med central.... when asu bought med central and I have to say that every student that was trasfered there was treated differently. There were great professors that lost their job over this and it wasn't right. Then they(ASU) wanted to double if not triple my tuition!!! ...but its your choice...for me to be in debt forever...You are not a great university...your a scam!!!! You bought my university told me I had to pay double which I couldn't afford... so what did I do .... I had no choice I had no choice but to quit. Ashland University is nothing but a money hungry university"

"I absolutely HATE this school. They HATE people of collar and question their knoweledge, so I had to take EACH TEST TWICE to prove that I know the staff. Only 1st time was counted toward the grade. Professor is very UNPROFESSIONAL they have no problem to tell student ""I do not think that you should be the nurse" even so I did NOT ask for their opinion. My clinical instructor was abusing me, she yelled at me because I was not able to respond, so when she was in bad mood we all was scared. I cry to many times due to abuse, but no one cared. I had to leave school in last semester, because my clinical instructor was trying to fail me, she was not letting me to practice any of my skills."

"The professors at the college offer little to no help in writing your capstone project. You will spend thousands of dollars retaking a one credit hour class because none of the professors actually know how the process works. It is painful to go through classes only to watching YouTube videos (20-30 per week) to learn how to become FNP's. There are no powerpoint, lectures or EFFORT in any of the courses. Each student receives a different answer from professors and things are explained last minute. There has been so many weeks in the three years that I have been in the program where something has not been posted properly or done correctly the first time."

"I received a very good education here. I do feel as though the cost is over priced and students should not have to pay so much for a good education and the organization when it came to clinicals was bad at times. But overall the school gave me a guaranteed BSN in just 4 years and had small class sizes which made learning much easier and plenty of hands on opportunities in their state of the art simulation labs."

"It was a great experience. I liked that the school was small and I have received individual attention from the professors. They were genuinely interested in my success at school and provided me tools to be successful once I've graduated."

"I highly recommend Ashland University in Ashland, Ohio. The Master of Arts in American History and Government (MAHG) Program at Ashland is a hybrid and online master's degree program, allowing us to combine the education of a traditional in-person classroom setting in the summers to the easiness of learning from home during the school year. All of our MAHG classes involve education advancing to the next level; our classes are taught by master scholars from universities around the nation in an intense, live online classroom. Live online classes during the school year last two to three hours each class session, depending on how many times your class meets each week. Intensive classes during the summers allow for us to live on campus to attend classes that last one week each through the hours of approximately 9am-3pm, with breaks throughout the day. The MAHG program is designed for the benefit of our professional teaching lives, as most MAHG students are public and/or private secondary school Educators. MAHG classes focus on what to teach for Social Studies and English, not how to teach the subjects and content. One aspect I love about Ashand University MAHG Program is that we are invited to take the first class for free to get the best understanding of the intensive program and what is expected from us as students. So far, In live online classes that meet no more than twice a week and one-week classes in the summer, I have learned more through the MAHG program that I did during an entire semester of Social Studies classes during my undergraduate education."

"I greatly enjoyed the MBA program at Ashland. The professors were knowledgeable and the classes were very diverse, which helped prepare me for my career. The small class sizes were nice and enabled the professor to get to know each individual student. Every class had group projects to showcase what we learned. Overall, I can't imagine having a much better MBA experience."

"I like MBA Graduate programs because it gives me an opportunity to become a better me. I will improve myself and make me more marketable on the Job. The Diversified courses that are taught will make me relevant in practically all career areas from the service industry such as Restaurants to Financial industry- Banking and Insurance, to Manufacturing and indeed Education. The Volume of reading and research work is another advantage as our knowledge base is further enhanced. Also I have come across Professors who have been teaching for several years and also have practical experiences in their various fields and therefore communicate effectively in class. On the flip side, I do not honestly see any disadvantage of being in Graduate school. The most important thing for me is that I will be a better me at the end of the day."

"The college has a very small town and personal feel to it. Classes are small, so the professor knows who you are and it creates a level of accountability you can't get anywhere else."

"One of the things that I like best about Ashland's graduate program is that it offers hybrid classes instead of simply giving online only, or class only options. These hybrid classes meet in person three or four times for the duration of the class while the primary workload is given online. These classes are able to give the personal touch I desire in my classes without inconveniencing my busy schedule with weekly in-person sessions. It is also nice that these classes can be held at different satellite locations around the area. To be able to take my in-person classes in Stark county, where I live, rather than needing to drive to Ashland's main campus for every class really eases the burden of graduate school. If I had to name a con, I would say that the workload has been pretty heavy, although I believe that is to be expected with graduate classes. Other than this, I have to say my experience with Ashland has been exceptional."

"I am a non-traditional student at Ashland University pursuing a teaching license. While Ashland boasts a lovely campus, I'm impressed with the academic quality. The Bachelor Plus program is specifically designed for the full-time professional looking to change or enhance career opportunities. The class I am currently taking is relatively small and the teacher is excellent. So far, I'm enjoying the experience and am learning so much!"

"Pros: I love the online offerings. I work full time as a teacher, so to be able to take online courses is crucial. The online courses are well organized and my teachers are attentive and good at communicating. Cons: It's expensive and I wish there were more financial aid opportunities. I had trouble setting up my account in the beginning and went round and round playing phone tag with people before I finally got it set up. The instructions could be more clear."
