I was enrolled at university of phoenix for a month. Red flags began to pop up almost immediately. The web site, 'classroom', was the biggest pain in the but, and organized terribly. The financial aid was an absolute joke. They promised 9500.00 in financial aid, and a 5350.00 pell grant, none of which was ever recieved. I had opted to manage my own funds by having all education money[loans, grants, ect] directly deposited into my savings account. This obviously made them mad. They called me 7 times and wanted me to opt for the school to manage my account funding. When I told them "no", that I was perfectly capable of managing my funds, and that my tuition was paid up to date, they then got mad and sent me a letter stating that either I sign the right to manage funding over to them, or they would just take them anyway without my consent. I contacted 3 different reps, and got 3 different answers. This school is nothing but a "student mill", literally accepting every person that applies, reguardless of their qualifications. The university of phoenix is only interested in ONE thing, MONEY. If you are looking to further your investigation, turn away from UOP, and run FAST!
