Does anyone (who went there) have an opinion on the University of Phoenix or The Open University? EDIT: Woah, look at this link http://www.ripoffreport.com/Search/Company/University-Of-Phoenix.aspx http://www.ripoffreport.com/Search/Company/University-Of-Pho... - so many complaints. I really wonder what is going on here. Is there any online university that is not a ripoff?

  Sad! Why was this stopped after one year?

    You'd have to know the story of ArsDigita to understand why. Here's Philip Greenspun's side of the story: http://waxy.org/random/arsdigita/ http://waxy.org/random/arsdigita/

Although one must expect at least a handful of complaints any time a company has 100s of 1000s of customers (oops, I meant 'students'), the type of abuse that is likely to occur when recruiters are pressured to meet quotas can be seen at Consumer Affairs: http://consumeraffairs.com/education/phoenix.html http://consumeraffairs.com/education/phoenix.html
