[nabs-l] Have You Researched or Attended Colorado Schools or the University of Phoenix?

[Everett Gavel]

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!
