Purdue Global Reviews of Bachelor's in Business Administration

As a full-time employee, this school provided the flexibility and autonomy for me to succeed. When I first enrolled I had been out of school for 13 years after received my Associates in Animal Science. My previous experience in school was traditional with on-campus classes, multiple books per course, and reliance on scantron tests. It was a shock to my system to have everything online and it scared me at first. After the 2nd week of attending, I realized how much better this format fit with my lifestyle... Read More and learning preferences. The university has amazing resources. Academic Writer was the resource I used the most as it formatted all of my papers easily, catalogued all of my references, and was a central location for all of the papers written throughout my degree. I wholeheartedly recommend Purdue Global for those that want to pursue a degree. Take the leap of faith and apply now. You will not regret it.

This has been a great school. I really enjoyed most of the instructors and the entirely online format, which meshed well with working full time. My one thing to note with the online format is that there are weekly seminars that you must attend or watch and submit a sort of review of. I really recommend this school if you're a self-starter and are good at working on your own, because the advisors weren't the best. Otherwise, the workload was manageable, the knowledge useful to my chosen career and... Read More I was able to take a nice variety of classes within my electives.

I finished an associate's degree at Purdue University Global last year. After a break, I decided to go back for my bachelor's. This time the experience has been nothing but stressful. I choose to take some courses from other programs to cover some of the credit hours. These programs advertise that they are equivalent. I took a few courses and sent in my transcript to find that one of the classes was no longer acceptable as a transfer credit. The Registrar's Office claimed that it was no longer equivalent... Read More as of 2021. However, I found another person that had the credit applied to their transcript just 5 months previous to my completion of the course. Following that experience, I checked with my advisor about another class I wanted to take for credit hours. She sent a message to the Registrar's Office and they confirmed that the classes were equivalent. After completing that workload and sending my transcript the credits were not applied. I'm a week away from starting my final term and I no longer have an advisor, only a functional email to message regarding concerns. The support I am receiving this year is inconsistent. I've spent over $30,000 at this school and I feel very defeated as I've been putting so much effort into graduating this year and cannot get the answers or support I need.

Im conflictes about recommending Purdue. My classes were great, the instructors were great for the most part, but the support services (ie student services and different advisors) have really made my experience poor. Ive spoken to multiple customer service members to try to get questions answered and during many of the interactions, i was disappointed. It started last year when waiting on the Dean for weeks to approve a class overload that never happened. I eventually signed up for the classes anyway... Read More and thankfully I did because I never heard back. Next I have received conflicting information about classes I could take based on prerequisites where ultimately I had to complain about taking my last 2 classes together because I was told I couldn't at the last minute. More importantly for graduation, there is nobody to call in and talk to when you have questions. My advisor really couldn't answer if I was able to graduate this session, since i was currently enrolled so i finally was able to email and get an answe. I am getting to walk at the graduation but still dont know if the correct honors will be attributed to me. I have a 3.91 gpa now and at yhe end of this session I should have a 4.0 but dont know how that will work since last day of class is Aug 11 and I walk Aug 13. When I do speak with someone, ive experienced less than favorable customer service, where I leave away feeling like the operator was only interested in getting me off the phone. I am an HR manager and my employer pays for our tuition so its disappointing to say I cant say Purdue University Global will be my first recommendation of schools if Im asked which University Id recommend. I wish I could provide other feedback but want to report so maybe someone else wont experience the same.

Before I enrolled at Purdue University Global, I was skeptical, only because I work full-time and I have four children. Purdue made my goal a reality! Everything and everyone was incredible, advisors, the financial aid team, and of course the professors! Purdue Global has some absolutely amazing professors, they are great people who genuinely care about their students and want to see them succeed. I was very relieved with the entire experience. I graduate in 4 short weeks, with honors! I have never... Read More been more satisfied with my selection of Purdue University Global!

PG has made working full time & going to school way easier than it would've been somewhere else. My professors were caring, great listeners, and friendly. The option of doing the alternate seminar assignment helped decrease my stress levels as time was short and life was overwhelming during the pandemic. My advisor was super helpful, the career assistance has been a huge help. At first thought, the idea of online only, in a different state, and without many committed times scared me. However, this... Read More is exactly what made it successful. There is no doubt I would do this again, at PG. I am proud and excited to be graduating from PG.

I called Purdue University Global and spoke to Joe Rensaw. I was looking to attend college since COVID 19 caused us to remain at home. Joe was encouraging, helpful, and got me enrolled. He helped me whenever I had a concern. I am grateful for the opportunity to finish my education. I chose Business Administration. I have had wonderful instructors. Thank you for being there for students like me. I will always remember my time at Purdue Global. I attended Purdue University West Lafayette as an undergraduate... Read More in the 70's. I am happy to graduate from the school I love. I sent my daughter to Purdue in 2005. My husband was a graduate of Purdue.

My overall experience at Purdue have been wonderful. First, I love the convenience of online classes. It allows me to work and seek a higher education at the same time. My study in Business Administration/ Human Resources have increased my knowledge in ways that will be beneficial to me, know and in the future. Learning about business and the role that it plays in our world today, gave me a better understanding of how businesses work. The Professor's did a great of teaching the courses in a way that... Read More students understood, and they made me feel comfortable asking questions. The support at Purdue made my study even more enjoyable. Whenever I call Tech Support, if I was having any problem with the internet or accessing information, the staff was kind, professional and I sense a feeling of wanting to assist.. There are many supports systems that Purdue offers to help students succeed, such as, tutoring.You can get assistance in areas where you feel there is a need. Because of my experience, I would recommend anyone to Purdue that is considering furthering their education. I believe they would be glad they did.
