Rasmussen UniversityReviews of rasmussen.edu

I wished I would have read these reviews before I started according to my advisor as a returning student they allowed me to enroll start class and then they told me I had to pay 4,000 dollars out of pocket who the heck has that kinda money laying around I applied and qualified for financial assistance They shared I had to pay this amount out of pocket before I could receive my FA. because I was on something called SAP. I am going to check with Higher Education to see if this is proper protocol No I no longer want to attend it’s the principle of trying to beat people and making getting a education unaffordable

Save your pennies and never attend this joke of a university! They will present you with very convincing lies that caters to what you want to hear, when in reality they are just trying to milk money out of you. Even their financial aid is a joke! The classes are overly priced and they teach you very meaningless things that don’t always align with what you are pursuing. I did their online courses and I hated the fact that all their projects and assignments are due on the same day with a big ass late penalty ! Yeah sure you might come across very nice online instructors that will not penalize you for turning things in late due to personal issues outside of academics…but they’re a small number! The majority of them don’t really care about your problems and will continue to penalize you regardless, and when you think you’re about to fail, you can’t freely withdraw like most colleges….You have to wait for your advisor’s approval which is utterly ridiculous. Please don’t attend this university!

Rasmussen University is not what they portray. Please do yourself a favor and find another school to attend. I would suggest Chamberlin University rather than Rasmussen. Rasmussen University Mokena Has a teacher name Suzanne Repervich who they allowed to refer to the students in which the school is "predominantly African American" as lazy, lack motivation, and cheaters. I think this is very offensive being that the school is 95% black. Along with this, the morale at this school is very low and it's a very toxic environment. The amount of money that you spend, you'd think you would be treated with respect. The instructors that do help the students--are harrassed and often leave and go elsewhere. The Repervich instructor could be overheard talking about other students and their shortcomings. The racism is very evident in this school. The students are black and the management is white and they treat the students as such. Not to mention, Another instructor was overheard calling an asian woman in YouTube educational video a video a "Chink." The students pay a great deal of money just to be mistreated, talked down upon, and ridiculed. Theres not respect for religion, or race at this institution. Please take my advice and run! do not attend this school for your nursing degree.

Warning ⚠️ Do not bother going here . I was told by my advisor every thing was covered by financial aid but soon as the semester started they raised there prices and apparently I have to pay out of pocket. Oh i can never get a hold of my advisor I will leave messages after messages and she always sends me an email but never call me back. Not to mention I explained to her that I wasn't emotionally capable of taking a class at a certain time due to family situation and finding out my son has autism and what she said was I'm sorry to hear your son has autism. Don't believe everything they ever tell you because it isn't true and don't buy books they will automatically take money for the books from your financial aid online classes the instructor hardly uses the books .

Not very polite. This was not even my top choice of colleges and when I took “too” long to get the ‘Rasmussen ready’ done, I received messages saying “Do you still intend to start classes? I still see zero progress in Rasmussen Ready. Classes will have much more firm deadlines and I want to make sure you're well prepared to be successful in classes.” Then when I messaged to be took off the list I received “If you can get it done by the end of the weekend we can keep your enrollment going. But once classes start you'll have 2 deadlines per class, per week, which is pretty common among online schools.”

When I started at this college, I did not know what to expect. I had not used APA before, all new. But, I was willing to learn, if they were willing to teach me. My very first written assignment was not a standard paper, it was like a brochure kind of paper. The instructor reminded us about citations, but said none of you are new, you know how to do it. She was very snappy and crabby and mouthy. Bad mouthing companies in business like Walmart and Microsoft. When I had a question on my paper, since I was BRAND NEW, she said I talked about it in the live class. Didn't answer my question. So I met with a tutor. She was helpful in answering my questions. Got my paper back and she said it was missing particular information. I looked back, it was there. I asked her about it and she still didn't tell me what I did wrong. I asked her to help me so I know what was wrong and she refused to help. I paid $3,000 for 5.5 weeks of classes, and she can't give me 5 minutes to teach me? The tutor looked it over and she can't understand what was wrong with it.

If I could rate Rasmussen University a .5 - I would. I don't know where to start other than they are NOT flexible for adult learners as they state. Also, they do not work with you if you are having any sort of medical or family emergency. My daughter's grandmother died and they said if she missed the lab, she just would not get the points and may have to redo the whole class. When she had a doctor note from being in the Emergency Room they told her the same thing. They were not willing to work with her to have some grace to get her assignments in. She was asking for an extra 2 days. This is on top of the fact that they told her the Lab Assistant program was flexible for adult learners who work and then expected her to take 3 days off of work for a whole semester. She works full time for a clinic and pays her own ways. This was after they told her that she had so much flexibility in her interview before beginning the program. Let's talk about the difference, I am in grad school and when I was ill my professors got back to me right away offering weeks to get caught up. My other daughter is in law school and her professors all told her how sorry they were for her loss and to take as much time as she needed after the death of her grandmother. Rasmussen is a FOR money college that does not care about their students. Don't do it.

WORST UNIVERSITY EVER!! They only care about the money! And the Executive of the university is a POS.
