Rasmussen college has never given up on me, I am now back getting my Bachelor’s degree in Justice Studies and this isn’t my first “try” at it. Rasmussen has been so patient with me not to mention how convenient their online platform makes completing classes! This program is flexible for people who are always busy!

waste of time and disappointed.
The health and wellness program didn’t meet my expectations and I was disappointed that their was so many general classes like astrology, politics class and others that were a waste of time when there should have been more health and wellness related classes like nutrition, importance of exercise, how to read food labels etc. I would never go back to Rasmussen ever and I want to make sure others don’t as well because I wasted so much time and money.

If you want to teach yourself from a book and learn no actual skills, this is the school for you! You will be well prepared for the NCLEX, but actually working as a nurse you will have no idea how to apply your knowledge.

Rasmussen is what you make of it.
Before enrolling at Rasmussen College, I read many online reviews. A reviewer said "Rasmussen College is what you make of it." This is 100% correct.
I joined Rasmussen because it met my most important needs. (1) Flexibility (fully online) and (2) self-paced. I started my Associates program in Buss Mgnt in Fall 2017 and completed the Bachelors in Buss Mgnt by Summer 2019 in 22 months (SummaCum Laude). I achieved 100% of my goals in Rasmussen plus I did it with 21k in student loans (not much IMO). In addition, I participated in the Rasmussen Leadership Academy (an experience I found very enriching) and I worked with the college in the work-study program.
Rasmussen is exactly what you make out of it; If you are focused, determined and you go in with a defined objective, Rasmussen will help you meet your goals. I am currently enrolled in a top 40 MBA program (US News, FT, Forbes ranking).
I must warn however, that if you are undecided why you want to go to college, or what you want to get out of it, Rasmussen is not the place for you. There are no baby-sitters, and you must be on top of your game or frankly, YOU WILL STRUGGLE (and I have seen many do so). The successful Rasmussen student is mature, proactive and self directed, a very different experience from regular college.
The instructors are genuinely interested in helping you succeed (save for one or two I experienced) but will also enforce academic policy as needed. The class/semester structure can be quite hectic so if you fall back, you will be overwhelmed. Overall, I had a good experience and I would recommend Rasmussen to motivated and self-directed students.
4 stars, because of the student advisors that I worked with. They functioned more as notice boards than helpers meant to guide me through my journey and a few times I had to go jaw-to-jaw with them to achieve my plan.
