Walden instructors are not present in the classroom and basically the students run the classroom. The only thing the teachers do is give grades and they are very prejudice when giving grades. If you should happen to challenge any of them, they will find a way to fail you and they will not, under no circumstances, refund your money. They are nothing more than rip-off artists. If you want a quality online eduation go to Capella. In California the students who took and passed the State tests for a license to practice were from Capella. The students from Walden failed the test. You don't have to believe me just look under the California Board of Psychology website and go to school and students who took and passed the tests. Capella students had not problem with the tests and passed them with all the knowledge they had acquired, Walden students, on the other hand, couldn't even pass the basic tests. DON'T WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY AT WALDEN.

I also enrolled at Walden first and found the same thing you said to be true. The professors are never involved in the classroom discussions. I complained but was told that it would be looked into. It didn't change so after 3 quarters I left. I am now at Capella and am very happy. I have learned a great deal.

I graduated from West Valley college in Saratoga CA and I have attended other universities including San Jose State and University of California at Santa Barbara, so I can also speak from experience. In total, I found Walden challenging and fair. One must realize that providing online courses is something entirely new in higher education; Walden is making every effort to do a good job. Your education is what you choose to make it; learning is up to you. Walden fairly presents you with that opportunity, anyway I found it so.// Do you find this valuable? |
