National UniversityReviews of nu.edu

No matter how many times I informed admissions I was no longer interested almost daily did they call to harass about enrollment. They continuously pushed me toward a degree that did not align with my career path but did add on classes so they could get more money out of me. Overall very disappointing university. I switched to SNHU and never looked back now I get to graduate fast without debt and a concentration in my actual field of study.

National University failed to provide adequate staffing, program materials, and curriculum. After working as a School Psychologist, severe deficits in foundational skills were made apparent. It is very difficult to attain such knowledge and skill set when three professors are assigned to one course(resignation or termination). This was compounded by the lack of access to testing materials for a pivotal assessment course. There were too many sub standard experiences to list here.

The curriculum is a a joke, classes are entirely irrelevant to my major (construction management), complete waste of time and money. Additionally, this school took no action when an openly misogynistic teacher was reported to them. National University condones misogyny.

My friend went there and they got his social security number wrong resulting in him getting incorrect grades that were not his. This put him on academic probation and they were completely unhelpful trying to fix the situation saying he had to write a letter and they would not take him off of academic probation when he wasn't even the one who messed it up in the first place. He is a veteran and they were completely useless in helping him. They passed him around from advisor to advisor and when asked to speak to their supervisor they repeatedly said they didn’t have one.They then said he would have to pay for the classes out of pocket because the VA would not pay since he was on the probation for grades that weren't his! TERRIBLE DONT DO IT

The worse school ever. Nobody here is on the same page, the recruit team just want to sign you up, once you are in nobody tell you what you need. When you feel like you are done with all you need to move forward, they kindly inform you that you can’t because your GPA is not enough (even after showing proofs that it is) This school is just a waste of time and money, I had to file a complaint to get my money back and until this day I have not yet receive an answer.

I earned a Master's degree with National in 2019 and the overall experience (counselor's, professors, & online classes) was great! I am now on the tail end of the counseling program and this experience has been a roller coaster. Online classes have been good. The professors teaching each course have been very helpful and supportive. I give that part five stars. It has been very difficult to get information or assistance from any counselor/advisor. I am getting different information from different advisors and become more confused than before. I am two weeks into my Counseling internship and if it wasn't for Margo Drallos, I wouldn't have any idea of what to do next. Prof. Drallos has been very helpful and supportive. I feel bad for emailing her with questions that advisors should be answering, but when I am able to speak to one on the phone, I am told they can't answer that question and refer me to someone else. I am being referred to counselors who are either passing me off for various reasons. Returning emails/phone calls 5-7 days later for various reasons, or I keep calling until I get in touch with someone. It's been very frustrating and numerous students in my classes have expressed the same experience. I know counselors/advisors are busy, but the overall positive customer/student service has been lost with the National University experience.

National failed to respond to me, and make attempts to make adjustments to my program when they no longer offered the classes I need for my program. I was almost done with this program, but they have completely wasted my time. I have been waiting for responses about my independent study requests.

The only reason they even get a single star is because the professors are amazing. Education wise, all great. On-boarding, financing, admissions, all non-existent. I put in 10 calls to maybe get one returned a week later. Do more then take my money or don’t claim yourself service or concierge because the staff is neither! -10 experience. In the 8 weeks i gave them to onboard, the last 2 i shared with Cal State…which had me set up in 2 afternoons.
