Louisiana State University - Shreveport Reviews of Master's in Business

Do yourself a favor, and spend the extra money and go to a school like SNHU. Overall MUCH better experience. From the student services, advising, professors, etc., there is no question. LSUS uses a third party testing company, ProctorU, in it's testing environment. This is a serious BREACH of personal data from your own computer. They do not allow you to fully test this system before classes start, only to get the GREEN CHECKMARK that your systems are good to go to handle the online environment.... Read More By the time you get to the testing environment with ProctorU, your option to drop courses for a refund is past. The professors are AWFUL. I had one professor who had 3 degrees, served in the army, and he could not find a way to return my emails or help me with the issues I was having with my firewall not allowing the testing content due to security reasons. (Customer support at ProctorU advised me to remove my firewall! Do your research on ProctorU incidents - it's a real issue across several colleges - some of which have chosen to ban it due to data breaches as well as the level of disrespect and stress it adds to students' experiences). Furthermore, LSUS does not have a contingency plan in place for students who do not want to use ProctorU. I did get my money back after DILIGENT days and weeks of calls and emails and ultimately directly contacting the Dean. I am not exaggerating when I say I spent hours on the phone with support and trying to contact student services. A complete nightmare. Know what you are signing up for when you are dealing with admissions before you even attend. Don't save $5K dollars on degree to stress yourself out and be treated like a teenager in detention. Respect yourself more than that and attend a school that treats you like a CUSTOMER who is paying for your education! TRUST me on this. This school is a scam. You deserve BETTER.
