Mixed Feelings: Ultimately DO NOT go here! REALLY!!!
Current MBA program student
The absolutely poor service with financial aid and its complete inconsistency in financial aid service at Keller and its disbursement system will push you to your limits as to why you EVER went to this university.
The actual curriculum and professors and doctors are great in all of my DeVry and Keller experience with real world experience and knowledge. It's a system that actually encourages you to always be on top of the topic matter and you really have to know your material.
The funny thing is I doubted all these negative feedback reviews as I've only had great experiences with both the professors and financial aid department.
I'm looking at some of the reviews of *DisgustedFormerStudent on another site and I must admit I was kind of pissed off from the comments. However in this horrible economy, coupled with virtually NO OPPORTUNITY to even get a position anywhere, it is essential that a full time student like myself to make sure certain distributions are distributed on a timely manner. It's already the first two semesters at Keller and THE FINANCIAL AID "PAPERWORK" DELAYS ARE... ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE...
I say again
absolutely horrible!!!
I am pretty good at separating certain issues, but the way these guys have lack of consideration for their student needs, and I'm guessing for sheer profit, I've only met with financial aid delays after delays. They've given me nothing but excuses after excuses as to why the funds have NOT been released.
For each call after the first and expected release dates (due to my past experience at DeVry), I've only heard delays after delays, excuses after excuses as to why my funds have not been released. I finally received my payment after a semester (that's THE NEXT SEMESTER) with reduced loans that is COMPLETELY INCONSISTENT with all of my years at DeVry Undergraduate program.
The way their Financial Aid department is operating is, they are either all overworked doing multiple jobs or their system is all screwed up with hopefully not a small percentage that they are ACTUALLY SCAMMING their students with the WORST INCONSISTENT KNOWLEDGE or DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM in their departments, so much so,
The constant updates and communications with the financial aid department are actually interfering with my studies!
You would literally need another person or assistant to deal with their department so that you can concentrate on being a student!
To give them the benefit of the doubt, a great percentage of the operators have all been courteous and professional and underneath it all, it looks like they are all pawns under a horribly set up department and ultimately they are forced to give...
Delays after delays!
Excuses after excuses!
Unless they completely overhaul their communication (with lenders or WHATEVER) and possibly overworked labor issues...
Do not go to keller (you "hear" and read this keller!!!)
Sadly there's a small percentage that I might actually be stuck with this university due to this economy!
You have a choice right now to make sure you choose a university with both great professors and great service
(Hey DeVry/Keller, maybe you guys need to take an MBA program or learn from your professors/doctors - YEAH YOUR EMPLOYEES)
