Post University

I am currently enrolled in my first graduate class and now going into week 3. Let me tell you honestly that this university is the worst I've attended. The professor currently teaching the Lifespan class is horrible. She is pompous, condescending and expects her students to learn on her level (SHE has a PhD by the way). She does not give proper credit for work but instead picks it apart looking for APA formatting errors and bases your grade on that. What a joke! I can't wait to get the hell out of... Read More this university because they clearly hire morons for instructors. Save your money and stay away from Post. You will never regret not going there believe me.

I attended Post Universyt Online. I really enjoyed the "professors" and my classmates were great but the administration and counselors are a joke ! It would take all day to talk about Post. I was charged for everything. Everything ! And was only given a nickel in federal aid and loans that I have to repay. Not too mention having to wait two months till you get your aid, I was given all sorts of excuses for the questions I had for the financial aid department . Monkeys are better suited than these... Read More so called educators and advisers and administration there. I often times dealt with rude, inconsiderate people who would email me days later about the problems I wanted to address. No one would take my calls and I was given different people to talk to each time. Like I said it would take all day to tell you the things I was put through as well as some of my classmates too ! Most of us decided to leave, transfer...and we got the hell away from that money pumping diploma mill. Understand this is a true statement, I attended this so call school in 2014, please do not waste your time or money you will be disappointed, hurt, broke and just a number !

I was new to Post University but no stranger to Online Education, and had already obtained a Masters from another University, however this by far was my worst experience. I found some of the instructors to be condescending and sarcastic at times. The financial aid department is not the best, and the layout of the courses were not as structured as I would like. Course content was very detailed this is the one positive, but the delivery of course material by the instructors was not. In previous settings... Read More students were automatically enrolled into courses, and there was never a question of enrollment numbers and courses were not cancelled. There were times I would email my academic adviser and would not receive a response (not even an out of office reply) for well over a week. I was very unhappy with Post and withdrawing was the best decision I made.

I have been going to Post since 2012 to get my B.S. in Accounting and have been very happy with the whole experience. When looking at schools, they were the only school that didn't pressure me into anything, answered all my questions, and took care of my transcripts and financial aid within just a few weeks so I was able to start right away. Anytime I needed help with financial aid or my classes, I always received answers back usually right away by email or phone if necessary. They were very easy... Read More to work with and the classes have been great. I never would have been able to go back to school without doing it online and I've had a great experience. Another girl at my work started at Post last year because of the experience I had. It does cost more than a traditional college but you're paying for the convenience and I compared other online schools and they are pretty much all in the same ballpark. I love the 8-week courses and I've had mostly all good experiences with teachers and most are very understanding and they try to make sure you get the most of the class that they can. I totally recommend it and I've told many people about your school and how much I like it.

I cannot say enough good things about this school. The staff is GREAT! I was always able to talk to someone when needed. I received constant emails from my advisor (J). She was always on point, knew where her students stood. Heck she would even send out emails when she knew she was going to be out of the office to ensure all issues were resolved prior to her absence. The professors are very interactive. All would send regular weekly emails. They also understood life happens and were flexible with... Read More some assignment deadlines. There were even a few times I called my professors. Yes that is right called and talked! They answered or returned calls! I don't know of an online school that will cater to its students as Post does. I will continue my education with them in the near future in pursuit of my masters. If you are unsure if you want to attend reach out to one of their advisors. Pick their brains and you will see they are legit.

I will be graduating shortly, and can say that Post Univ. instruction is high quality and very challenging. The professors are very helpful and supportive and very knowledgeable in their field. The only problem has been with the student loan program where there always seems to be some confusion. They control how much of a refund you get, keeping it as low as possible, and they offer absolutely no support. You advisor will never offer any support especially if you are not failing. They are also helpless... Read More when it comes to helping with locating internships outside of Conn. You are on your own, and they don't care if you get an internship, they just start treating you as though you have left the program without even contacting you to see how you are progressing in your internship search. Good quality education from highly qualified and skilled professors, but you cannot bank on the school's their support.

I don't really have problems with the online education that I am receiving at Post however, I am disappointed with the way that they do business. Post will enroll you without your transcripts, without your financial aid in place, without fully disclosing the cost of tuition for your specific degree and without telling you that you're officially enrolled. My advice for prospective students would be to do all of your own research on their website before even contacting them for more information. An... Read More online degree from Post will cost you upwards of $75,000. You need 120 credits to graduate at $570 per credit hour, which is more than a degree at Harvard or Yale. They don't tell you this up front and they're probably hoping that you never find out. Once your admissions counselor registers you for a class, you're screwed unless you drop the class before it begins. One it starts, you're on the hook for the tuition for that class. To the tune of $1,710 and financial aid won't cover that class until you take more classes and rack up more debt. You're going to owe Post University $3500 before you can get away from them. Is it worth it? Maybe if you have the money, but for me, I can't wait to get out of this program. It's sad because I do enjoy the classes and the instructors, but the cost of tuition is absolutely ridiculous.

The financial department is crooked!! The reviews that I have read speaking of this are true. Paying out of pocket for all my books, there was loans taken out that never was shown to me til after the fact. I withdrew from Post University after being told for the mod I was in enrolled in was going to cost $2500 out of pocket. In rereturn I could not afford this, now I'm being told I owe the University back $1700 back under title IV. After getting a run around from I withdrew to late or I didn't withdraw... Read More in time there is still no answers. The actual counselor was helpful and respond back to any questions or emails. The staff themselves was a joke!! I really want to finish my degree and I'm so close..

Post University has been a lifesaver for me. I am currently on active duty and plan on retiring in next couple months, Post was the first university to cover my books after I received my Associates Degree. They are very user friendly. They have an excellent turn around time in reference to getting you a student agreement after you send in your information (AARTS, transcripts, and other docs). I received my information the next day. The curriculum can be challenging but it is very relevant. Some of... Read More the classes that have took actually dealt with some of the topics that I deal with at work in Human Resources and as an Instructor. I am definitely not saying that it is easy, but it is obtainable, you have to manage your time wisely. If you call them they will return your call if they are unavailable. They have a Malcolm Baldridge Business Accredidation (he went to the school). There are presidential awards given to businesses in the name of Baldridge. Post is ranked as one of the "BEST" online Universities and it is true. I could actually be there spokesperson if they asked. I try to tell everyone one I can, because they try to make going to school as smooth as possible without all the headaches. EXCELLENT UNIVERSITY, I GRADAUTE IN MAY 2015!!!

You are so correct about the disorganization of Post University and oh boy are you correct about their unprofessional academic advisors. I had a pretty scary health issue and had to have surgery in the middle of the mod and because of complications I got sick and wasn't able to fully participate in my courses. These complications occurred during my attempt to complete my first 12 credit hours. After exhaustingly trying to contact and connect with my very rude instructors I was failed. I then received... Read More an email that I was being warned that I could be dismissed but when I called my idiotic academic advisor/counselor he said that I was already dismissed. After viewing the attached documents in the email about the warning I noticed that it said Post University is required to notify students of warnings and dismissals by means of email AND certified mail first. I never got any certified letter from Post stating I was being warned or dismissed. I would know if I had received a certified letter being as though that I would have had to sign for a letter of the sort. PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM THIS POOR EXCUSE OF A COLLEGE! Once they get you to apply and register and get their money then they show their true colors about how little they care about their students. Also I hate to say it but in my opinion not only the staff but the professors seem racially biased as well. One of the biggest mistakes I could have made was attending this piss-poor school when I had much more obviously better options out there.

Beware of Post University, I read some bad reports online but I did not listen. First of all they are a FOR PROFIT school, and they do not care about you or your needs. All post cares about are their checks from the government. Post is disorganized and their so called academic success advisers are a joke. I was told I would hear from them on a weekly to monthly basis, after being at post for 7 months I have never received a phone call or email. I tried to transfer and all of a sudden I was told I... Read More must take classes or I would owe them money. They purposely ignored phone calls from the university I was transferring to. After many calls,(over 7 days) and being placed on hold for extended periods of time, they replied in an email they were unable to send my transcripts because their was an "issue with my acct". They are an awful school and I regret going there, my only hope is that I can stop others from making the mistake I did. Do yourself a favor and research all universitys keenly before signing on the dotted line.

Post University is wonderful. The faculty and staff seem to genuinely care about the students and their success. Most of my instructors would work with me when life would arise and I needed extensions, or simply didn't understand something. The staff is great to work with, all respond quickly. Most important to me was a business/marketing program that was a "Science" degree (not an Arts degree) that was from a legitimate brick and mortar school- with dorms, sports teams, etc. I value my degree more... Read More knowing that it came from the same place that traditional students get theirs from. While there are cheaper online programs (and definitely more expensive), many are from for-profit businesses, and not actual educational institutions.
