Tarleton State University Reviews

"Tarleton was great to work with, and the advisors helped me every step of the way. I have witnessed many universities not speak to future student unless they are already student of that particular university. Tarleton is opposite, I was looking at transferring and they sat down with me and treated me as though I was already a student. They gave me a degree plan and helped me so the I could accomplish my dreams."

"I completed everything online but it was great."

"Great kinesiology program. The professors are selfless and super helpful. They really get you ready for the real world."

"Loved the online courses. The majority of the teachers seemed to have taken the time to come up with engaging and thoughtful assingments, rather than just busy work."

"Tarleton State University provided me with world class education and a sense of belonging. The criminal justice masters program is one of the best in the state. The program is taught by actual professionals who have actually been in the criminal justice field. The program provides excellent insight to current issues and how to better one's self in the field."

"Tarleton State Univeristy's online program allows for flexibility but maintains rigorous standards that ensure students will graduate prepared."

"The MBA program at Tarleton seems to be unconcerned with student success, and is mostly focused on pumping as many students through the system as possible. Very little assistance from professors, the program has odd rules that you are not informed off, and they pump up their online class fees so that it makes the program much more expensive than advertised. The program administrators are generally unwilling to work with students on issues. The classes could have been taught without the professors, as all the assignments involved reading a chapter and completing a chapter quiz (all out of the book). Very frustrating to deal with, especially considering it is 2-3X the cost of an purely online program, without any additional benefits.Read Less"

"The online program with Tarleton State University has been a great experience overall. I do feel that online programs still have a ways to go when it comes to making sure that all students receive the support that they need, and I believe that to be the biggest con when it comes to this program. The biggest pro is the effectiveness of the program and the learning software that has been provided, it is easy to navigate and kept up to par as far as updates."

"The pros of the school are that it is convenient for me to attend a graduate program so close to home and within a reasonable distance from my home and job. The professors have been great and provide a great chance for me to succeed. If there was ever an issue that I felt the need to visit with one of them they are always willing to listen and help if warranted. Some of the major cons that I have notice include excessive work with online classes. Being that I am a full time worker and drive a great distance there is not a lot of time to complete the "busy work" that the online professors want to be completed weekly. Also, the classes that I need for my degree are not available every semester so it stretches out my graduation completion.Read Less"

"Pros of the MBA program at TSU include the accessibility of the courses. The entire MBA degree plan can be completed online. A con of the program would be the financial strain related with the courses."

"For the most part the faculty has been very responsive to my online education. Certainly they work hard to ensure that nothing is missed by students who study online."

"I have had great professors and one dud. Most of all my advisor gives real feedback on classes and how that relates to my goals. Great school"

"I enjoy the availability of online graduate level courses. I am married with 3 boys and a full-time job. The program allows me access to a quality education with the convenience of being able to complete the majority of my work online."

"Online classes worked well with my schedule and the professors were receptive to my needs."
