Hi All,
Anyone here attended or researched going to Pike's Peak Community College
(PPCC), University of Colorado -- Colorado Springs (UCCS), Colorado State
University (CSU), or the University of Phoenix? If so, could I please talk
with you off-list?
I'm attending college online at a private college, Ashford University (based
in Iowa). It's very accessible, and should be for at least the first 2
years, they say. They use some Constellation teaching system, rather than
something like Blackboard. Also, the reason I chose it was first for
accessibility, but a close second was the fact that they only give you 1
class at a time, each class being 5 weeks long, and you still get your 120
credit hours in 4 years or whatever the requirement is for a 4-year degree.
I mean, come on, how cool is that? Only 1 class at a time? I never heard of
such a thing before, but as soon as I did I jumped on the opportunity.
Anyway, Vocational Rehab here in Colorado will pay for my schooling, and
they may even pay for this private University. But I have to of course show
why it's the best choice after looking at local/Colorado schools and maybe
another online option. So I'm going to look at Pike's Peak Community College
(PPCC), University of Colorado -- Colorado Springs (UCCS), & Colorado State
University (CSU), as well as the University of Phoenix.
My question is, has anyone here already researched or used these facilities?
Can I talk with you or hear from you on your experience, or why you did or
did not end up attending that particular school? How was the accessibility
of it all for you, etc. Has anyone here been to any of these 4 schools?
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Strive On!
