I am writing today about Axia College, UOP, or University of Phoenix. I have been a student going on one year now. I am starting to get fed up with a few things that make no sense to me. First off, Why do I get scheduled for classes (before I finish the classes I am in). I mean, why can I not sign up for my own classes and take what I want to take in the order I deem worthy. It's my educational experience. Other Universities let you do this. Also, does anyone else know how hard it is to get a hold of my Financial Adviser as well as my Academic Representative? It is so hard that I usually just give up because I am tired of dealing with it. They only call me when it is EXTREMELY necessary. Like they need their money for classes or they need to tell me to file for financial aid again. That's it. Never do I call and someone pick up the phone in their office. Why even have a phone if students calling you are completely disregarded. The final thing that actually burst my bubble is financial aid money. I complete the requirements to make it "my money" and yet they do silly things. Like the latest thing was: I was told that they had to hold money on my account for the final two classes I will be taking for my academic year. That makes sense. What does not make sense is they only scheduled me for one class. They are holding money back for a none exsistent class. Oh, and the mailed report of how they spent my financial aid and the student account on the ecampus website is completely different. I want to know how really financial aid is being spent. Now, I do believe they only have the right to withhold money that is for financial obligation for the student and no more than that. I am a full time student at Axia, who relies on the money I am to get back to help pay bills. Yet, I am shorted because they find ways to spend my financial aid... Very unnecessarily.
