Quote:I was one of the original critics on Northcentral in the first post. I've softened my stance a little but most of my criticisms still hold true. I am now half way through the program (DBA) and I can say that communication is still non existent (except the odd mentor or two). In my current class, I've had no contact with the instrutor at all, despite sending him repeated emails. Most of my assignments have not even been looked at much less graded yet. The last time he looked at my work was on 5/23, and I've turned in assignments since then.
far from me to defend or justify the school, but my experience ( all accredited universities, no American ones ) tells me that the support you're likely to get is very minimal.
It took me TWO MONTHS to get a reply from a B&M UK university that also offers DE; that happened three times with three different people.
During the course of a long work (E.G a dissertation), support you get is minimal and supervisors let know beforehand how little time they have at your disposal, because there are many other students (and -as registrar told me in confidence- many of these UK B&M supervisor are only paid 10h a week or so...then they bellyache because they are understaffed ).
After 3 weeks and calls, an assignment was 'graded', but you could see it was a rush last minute job to prevent me from complaining about missed deadlines (they are supposed to grade it within 2 weeks ).
Again, UK accredited B&M .
