"This school is the WORST SCHOOL. I would never ever recommend anyone going here unless you want to be jipped out of thousands of dollars with a no good degree. This school does nothing but lie to you. They’re very unprofessional and don’t care about you."

"The Learner Services Advisors are so nice and definitely helpful, we talk not only about school but about our families as well. So far I've learned a lot (I'm only in my second month) and am excited to continue learning with the direction of the instructors. Always having access to my classes is so helpful because it allows me to work on my own timeframe wherever I have internet access!"

"UMA has been a wonderful experience for me. I have never felt so supported. My advisors and instructors have encouraged me at through every step. Not only do I fell like UMA cares about me as a student but also as a person. The way UMA classes are set up is well thought out and engaging. I feel challenged but not overwhelmed."

"When I decided to start taking online classes I was worried at first because I work fulltime as well as having a 2-year-old to take care of but there was nothing to worry about. The instructors and staff are excellent and offer so much support and help. There are also so many resources to help you achieve your goals not just in your professional life but in your personal life as well. They also check in with you quite frequently but not too much it is just enough to show they care and are there to support you. The other awesome thing they offer is career readiness which helps you prepare for a job and interviews. They also help to find a job in your field of study and one that is in your area. I am so glad I decided to start this journey and look forward to graduating. If you are a busy mother or person, I would recommend UMA because they have the perfect schedule for busy lives."

"As a fresh graduate of Ultimate Medical Academy, I graduated in January 2023, with an associate degree in Health Sciences Medical Administrative Assistant. I feel, that for future students, Uma, should really look fir there instructors more over any advisor! As I am just being honest. I had no one! I had only a round of instructors truly cared! Also to. Watch out on the so called "low tuition". My program was 57,000.00! That's for associate degree! In the last few years I attended, Uma totally ripped off my loans! Complete take advantage of a Ada student!!! Please beware of this! It is truly both amazing and a miracle that I actually 🎓! As Ultimate Medical Academy promised to find ne a good job in Healthcare, they never did!!! Shame on UMA! Class of 2023! In light of ALL. I follow The Light! Backward.Never.Forward.ever! Blessings yall."

"I have always wanted to take college courses, but I did not want to be in a classroom missing out on working to attend. It never crossed my mind about online classes. A former co-worker on one of my part times jobs was talking about the school and that she was graduating in November of 2022 and told me about the school. At first I just took the info and put it on my night stand. I went back later on after she asked did I contact the school. I went ahead and contacted the school, and by that next week, I was starting classes. So fas it has been a good experience, and the instructors show genuine concern and support. I'm glad I chose UMA."

"Reasons why I like UMA is that they care about the students as a whole person. UMA makes it easy to work and get an education. I love the tools provided: virtual library, learning services, online tutoring, tutorials on every topic in addition to the books, access to the instructors. Taking online courses at UMA is like having an entire team working with you each step of the way. You have someone to help you at all times, you are never alone even though you’re online. They want you to succeed and your advisor keeps in contact with you consistently to make sure you’re doing okay. I love that plus the courses are set up to deliver you the most essential information and those teachings will continue as you advance in your courses so you don’t forget. I cannot stress enough how much they want to make sure that you understand and succeed. There is so much support and resources it makes learning easier. I would recommend UMA to anyone and they continue after graduation to prepare for interviews, externships, and resumes, mock interviews. You will be very well prepared upon graduating, or they will help you transition to other schools they partner with if you choose to continue your degree."
