Flexibility without accountability
I liked the flexibility and professors, and the curriculum was good. I disliked how easy it was to get an A without meaningfully learning the material or challenging students. It seemed like everyone got A’s with minimal effort. The structure of CSU Global is flexibility without meaningful accountability. The existing accountability is made up of open book assignments and papers (some shared with other students), so it is up to you to absorb the material in a meaningful way. It left me wondering if there was enough accountability to differentiate CSU Global from a diploma mill. I also disliked the CSU Global name. The term “Global” tacked onto “CSU” felt like the school was less than or a sub-tier of CSU, which is true, but why make it so blatantly obvious.
