"Overall, Fielding Graduate University is an amazing learning environment. The teachers are passionate about the field of psychology, helping you learn, and sharing their knowledge. The hybrid model allows you some flexibility in attending classes and the ability to plan when and what you can take. The only weakness is that Fielding Graduate University often has many changes that sometimes are beneficial but other times are not."

"Fielding is a school that caters to the learning needs of self-motivated, proactive, and organized adult learners. The professors value each student's contributions and hold them responsible for meeting the class standards. The program offers in-person sessions to maintain its APA accreditation, but students are expected to showcase PhD level writing skills and be adept at self-directed learning in the subject matter. Prospective students must be ready to face the academic rigor of the program. Furthermore, Fielding is research-oriented and emphasizes evidence-based training in its approach to teaching."

"Stay away! Terrible financial decision, low graduation rate most students paying over nine years hundreds of thousands in combination of tuition loans expenses and lost income. Spent over $60,000 just continuing four years ABD with no services and terrible, neglectful management of dissertation process. Some lovely faculty but a disaster of a choice financially. Wish Id made formal complaints years ago."

"My experience with Fielding was exceptional. The professors were outstanding and willing to offer assistance beyond the classroom. If you are highly motivated, self-directed and ready for a rigorous and demanding educational experience, the Fielding Graduate University would be a great choice!"

"I am elated with Fielding Graduate University and the accreditation that is presented. The university has been very instrumental in assisting me through mentorship as well as guidance and direction throughout the curriculum. Their multidisciplinary team has been a welcoming attraction to me as a emerging neuropsychological."
