Categories Comments Campus Safety I attend online.
Clubs and Activities There is a lot of support and communities to join so that even as an online student I feel connected.
What to do for fun Doing online classes allows me the flexibility to do what I need to do. I am a mother and work fulltime so it is challenging to get things completed but the online format works for me very well.
Food and Dining Since I attend online this does not apply.
Dorm Life I attend online so this does not apply.
Academic Rigor It is very stimulating and I have learned a lot from my classes so far. I enjoy the fast pass and it was not been a problem to keep up with so far.
Tips for prospective students To help prepare yourself you will need to have time on Tuesday, Wenesday or Thursdays to get the intial assignments done. Stay positive and upbeat with classes only being five weeks long they are over before you know it.
In three sentences I very much like the format of classes and that I take just one class every five weeks. By doing this I am able to focus on each class and do my best. I have had great support from the academic advisors.

Categories Comments Campus Safety campus safety was inadvertently covered in my early tours and reading of campus life. the campus later arranged scavenger hunts and quiz tours in which we could all see just what i had learned. safety seems to be one of the schools top priorities requiring that each student have tested and proven knowledge of what to do in a crisis or otherwise dangerous situation.
Clubs and Activities these are things that i have yet to see and experience.
Great for these types of students argosy university is great for the type of student that wants to learn in a setting of high organization and accountability. argosy is the type of school that keeps track of students day to day. they don't allow you to fade off into the quiet darkness only to be barely heard. if you don't mind a once in a while call from a friendly guidance counselor just checking to see that things are going alright for you - then you will love going to school at argosy university.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus as i am new to the campus; these things i will have to share later.
Bang for the buck argosy university is an expensive college. the price to attend was shocking; however, i still chose to attend. my decision was based solely on the entire procedure surrounding the steps i took to apply. in every step of the way; i made all the decisions backed by professional, patient, and sound advise. their entire introduction and presentation of the school was outstanding. proven to me is that they are a school that is serious about individuals learning and succeeding on the best platform possible. fortunately for me; this was the type of college i was looking for. you simply can't ask for a better structural foundation to stand on.
What to do for fun my personal choices for fun was never spoke about in depth with the admissions and other staff of argosy university. they, however, made applying for college fun. this made all the difference in why i am glad i chose to attend the school.
Food and Dining during my early tours of the campus; i was brought up to date on dining and the procedures therein. the courteous staff made sure that should i visit the campus; i would sure be privy to good nutrition.
Dorm Life in the end i would not end up being a student who would be living on campus; as i enrolled in their online program. however, if you ask me; i would have received no lack of excellence in my search for living arrangements with all it's intricate details to boot. consistently, they would have walked me through the reins and i would have suitable living arrangements, i am sure.
Academic Rigor the excitement and enthusiasm i lacked when i set out to apply for admission to argosy university; was given back to me by the personnel i dealt with. they knew how nervous and apprehensive i was and they were there to address my every concern. their experience and foresight was priceless.
Tips for prospective students when dealing with admissions personnel; don't be afraid to be honest and speak your mind. these professionals are prepared and willing to attack an issues; good or bad, that you may have. they are very genuine in their endeavors to help you through school.
In three sentences argosy university is a college that gives you personal care and choice. they are not pushy, impatient, and they are truly all about you acquiring a good education backed by a good foundation.

Categories Comments Great for these types of students students who are employed and don't have time to go back and forth to a campus. students who are parents.
Food and Dining unsure because i am an online programs student.
Dorm Life i am unsure because i am a student in the online programs.
Academic Rigor the classes i am in are condensed (5 weeks) so the work is hard and fast-paced, but if you are willing to give it your all and really challenge yourself, then you will do great at argosy university.
Tips for prospective students argosy university online programs is a perfect way to earn a degree while still keeping a balanced home and work life. you get what you pay for at argosy university.
In three sentences i love the fact that i can earn the same degree as other students who actually attend the campus, but i do all of my studies and classes from the comfort of my home. the faculty is always friendly and help you no matter what your question or concern is. argosy university staff is knowledgeable and i feel like i really learn as well as i would in a classroom setting.

Categories Comments Campus Safety at the beginning of class argosy university was very clear on the dangers of college life. i got to learn about different help sources and ways to stay safe during my time in college.
Greek Life i guess i have a some what interesting life. i bring unwanted animals back to health and adopt them to better homes or keep them on the farm. we raise baby chickens, rabbits, and dogs. i want to start a business called guardian shepherds, where i can sell dogs or donate them for specific jobs, such as search and rescue or k9 service for local law enforcement.
Clubs and Activities i'm a country girl so clubbing isn't for me. having online courses makes it easier for me to enjoy my hobby farm, and have fun with my kids at auctions.
Great for these types of students argosy university online is a great college for the average person that can't slow down enough to have a set schedule. online has made it easier for me to go to school and enjoy my family at the same time. this to me makes school more fulfilling as well.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus as an online student i can tell you the home room is very neat and understandable. the curriculum and books are also easy to access. during the course we have discussion every week, which keeps classmates and the professor connected.
Bang for the buck argosy university is a very well rounded school. always looking for feedback and how to advance their current teaching capabilities, argosy university gives you the education you paid for.
What to do for fun while attending argosy university i've noticed a lot of friendly classmate. the professors are wonderful. the best thing about online is that i get to meet people from all over the world that have different ethnic backgrounds.
Food and Dining again, i wish i could answer more in depth but i'm an online student. so i unfortunately don't get to experience the foods in or around campus.
Dorm Life i can't comment on dorm life to much. i am an online student and live at home on my farm.
Academic Rigor this is a great question about a school. my biggest fear is thinking i'd fail horribly and have to pay for schooling that i'd never complete. at argosy university they have academic counselors that help you through your journey at school. professors personally call and introduce themselves, and ask how i am doing in their class. i think the reason why i am having such a productive time at school is because of the staff giving their best effort to make everything less stressful as possible. at the beginning of the course they have a summary outlook that shows when all assignments are do, and what weeks are more intense then others. argosy university online has made it possible for me to be a mother, work on my hobby farm, keep house under construction, have a job, and go to college. this university understands how hectic life can be at times, and is very good at working with you to make sure you succeed.
Tips for prospective students as a single mother of two i understand how scary it can be to start college. i have tried several times but got scared and intimidated by all the paper work and hurdles to jump through. i have been putting college off for 5 years. now that i am in college i wish i would have started earlier. college is exciting, and it gives you a sense of self achievement. my financial worker gave me the time, patience, and tools i needed to get started with my education.
In three sentences i was a little sceptical when i received a phone call from a representative at argosy university. after getting more acquainted with the staff at the university it made me feel more confident in starting my adventure at college. argosy university staff are very dedicated to their students and their academic achievements.

Categories Comments Greek Life they are some clubs.
Clubs and Activities they have a job search which is great and after you graduate they help you find a job.
What to do for fun well, there are some groups that a student can join that are fun. it just depends on what you decide to join.
Food and Dining no food or dining.
Dorm Life no dorm.
Academic Rigor remember just because it's online doesn't mean it easy or anything. to me it's harder than a ground school because i do have to depend more on myself. yes, you can email back and forth with your teacher, but it's not really the same as having them right there in front of you.
Tips for prospective students don't hold back on telling someone if you are having a problem. it's doesn't matter how big or small the problem is. someone is always willing to help you.
In three sentences argosy has some really good counselors looking out for the students best interests. what i find really great is that they call there students about every other week to talk to them and see if they are having any problems or just to say how good a job they are doing. i also really enjoyed how the classrooms are set up.

Categories Comments What to do for fun What I do for fun is play mahjong online. When I have a lot of spare time, I do my cross stitch.
Food and Dining Online students do not have this privilege.
Dorm Life I know nothing about this since I am an online student.
Academic Rigor The students seem to be excited to be attending Argosy. They are more willing to help one another without the threat of plagiarism breathing down their backs continually. Other schools I have attended looked down on students helping fellow classmates.
Tips for prospective students Be prepared for the thrill of your life. The online atmosphere is pleasant to work with and slightly more difficult than any other online school. The faculty is there to help you solve any problems you may have.
In three sentences This school is given an A+ rating because it allows me to continue from freshman to senior and doctorate continually. The online courses are done differently than any other online school, more difficult but fun. I would recommend Argosy to everyone who plans on a career in the psychological field.

Great for these types of students Students that are continuing education and students with families.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus This school allows prospective employers to come in and post jobs also if the department chairs have a job lead the send out emails to everyone in the programs. Also the library staff and the career services department have meetings to help you become a well rounded student and job ready.
Bang for the buck I feel like I am getting what I am paying for, a TOP NOTCH EDUCATION. I love the fact that I can download my books it is cheaper and makes my book accessible anytime any where.
What to do for fun Argosy offers a number of student appreciation days per semester also they sponsor trips and Six Flags days. This is a wonderful school with friendly staff. I am so glad I transferred here.
Food and Dining We are located near a mall not to mention The Art Inst. Atlanta which is an Argosy sister school and they have an amazing cafeteria. Its so wonderful.
Dorm Life I don't live in a Dorm however I have been told that my school helps the students that need housing and I hear it is wonderful.
Academic Rigor I am learning from instructors that are still hands on in this field. They bring us real life experience that is on going. Nothing better than learning from someone that is actually practicing .
Tips for prospective students I was remember to keep the names and number of the staff members that work with you because they will be your best friends. I have yet to call on someone and they have not gotten back to me with in 24 hours. I love that I can get help by simply picking up the phone or emailing someone.
In three sentences I am a transfer student from Brown Mackie and Argosy is wonderful transition . The whole staff is helpful beyond measure. Argosy is the best decision I could have ever made.

Categories Comments Campus Safety Argosy - Twin Cities is a safe campus. Students can feel safe here, and parents of young students can have peace of mind when sending their children to attend this campus.
Greek Life This is not prevalent on our campus.
Clubs and Activities Various opportunities exist for students to become involved at Argosy, such as student committees, fundraisers, become a tutor or mentor to fellow students, or a student worker (some which are paid positions). Also, there are many student appreciation activities throughout the year (free food and treats for students).
Great for these types of students Excellent place to call home for us 'seasoned' but always young at heart students who are returning to school.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Argosy - Twin Cities campus is a very clean and well kept campus.
Bang for the buck The education is top notch. However, Argosy - Twin Cities is a private college, so you will find the pricing to be a bit higher than some of the other colleges.
What to do for fun Fun? Are you kidding? I study. But for slackers, the Twin Cities and suburbs are alive 24/7. Concerts, sporting events, plays and musicals, dining, night clubs, movies, shopping - you name it. Never a dull moment to be had.
Food and Dining The Twin Cities campus is located in Eagan, MN, which houses several delicious local and chain restaurants. Some of my favorites are: Al Baker's, Ansari's Mediterranean Grill, Axel's Bonfire, Chipotle, El Loro, Granite City, Houlihan's, and Pardon My French.
Dorm Life I live off campus and commute several miles to the Twin Cities campus. There are no on-site dorms, but plenty of near by apartments. The surrounding neighborhood is rather small-townish, although only a minutes from Minneapolis, St. Paul, Mall of America and MSP (international) airport.
Academic Rigor The staff helps students move along at a quick pace by teaching in the above mentioned format, providing an encouraging environment and scheduling the next semester's classes in the middle of each prior semester. (In a student's mind, it doesn't seem and daunting).
Tips for prospective students Get comfortable using a computer and navigating around a chat room type of environment (for blended and online classes).
In three sentences Top notch education delivered to students by working professionals who are still the field. To the point lectures, smaller classroom style (vs. lecture halls), and staff readily available to assist students when needed. Classes available during the daytime, nights and weekends, as well as blended format and online versions - something for every student.

Tips for prospective students Make sure you have ALL information on payments owed, requirements, etc BEFORE enrolling. University prides itself on catering to the nontraditional student yet I have yet to see anything that substantiates this.
In three sentences Professors are very sound clinically and offer quality education/training. The system of the University is frustrating and haphazard. Overall solid university yet quality does NOT match the HIGH tuition charged.

Categories Comments Campus Safety campus security is provided for the safety of the students. security consists of classroom and hallway cameras, covered parking with cameras, and is patrolled by licensed security. school registration tags are issued to students for verification of parking privileges on campus.
Greek Life the fraternity and sororities that are available can be explored by the students that are interested in those opportunities.
Clubs and Activities each school on campus offers a variety of clubs and activities that allow students the opportunity to meet new people, form lasting memories, and lifetime friendships.

Great for these types of students Argosy University is an institution that I would consider suitable for any beginning or returning student wishing to further their education in a very relaxed environment.

Bang for the buck Just across from the campus is the newly built Citizens Business Bank Arena which holds a large venue of events, both sporting and musical events.

Dorm Life There are no dorms, that I am aware of.
Academic Rigor As I mentioned earlier, this is only my third semester however, during this time I have had a chance to get some kind of a handle on it. The Academic Rigor of the school is pretty standard and no more difficult than most schools of it's kind.
Tips for prospective students I would like to direct this to the students of advanced years in age. As a 61 year old returning to school I rapidly learned that the methods of teaching and learning have changed considerably. With the incorporation of routine computer usage, it became clear that not only did I need to brush up on my studying and learning techniques, becoming proficient with the computer is vital. Without at least a basic knowledge of computer usage you'll have a very difficult time.
In three sentences This is my third semester at Argosy University and so far the experience has been positive. The location is perfect, about ten minutes away from my residence. The staff and teachers have shown great professionalism a desire for students success.

Great for these types of students This University is great for non traditional students. That is older students with full time jobs and families because the classes are held late evening or you can take all your classes online.
Bang for the buck Although Argosy is a for profit school and private as well tuition is quite expensive. But between the work load and the small classes you get a lot more than what you are paying for.
What to do for fun Argosy University is in the heart of downtown Seattle so everything the city has to offer is at your fingertips.
Food and Dining Argosy University in Seattle shares a campus with The Art Institute of Seattle so we have access to their dining are where they practice make several course meals for a very discounted price.
Dorm Life Argosy does not offer dorms. Your advisor maybe able to help you find a place, but your living arrangements are solely your responsibility
Academic Rigor Because Argosy is set up that you take more classes in less time to complete your degree faster the courses can be very rigorous. Each Semester is split into two seven week courses and you take different classes each term. This makes your work load from week to week very heavy and demanding.
Tips for prospective students I do advise you for your first semester to find out which subjects you would be easier for you to take online or in class. And figure out your learning styles. If you are a visual learner and you are not great at math, you might not want to take Statistic online but at the actual campus.
In three sentences Argosy is a great school that allows you to reach your full potential through a rigorous program. The 3 semester school year helps speed up your graduation time while still giving you the information you need to move on. Also if you wish to continue your education passed the undergraduate level, in most majors they offer Master's, Ph.D even Doctorate programs.

Academic Rigor I enjoy the fact that Argosy offers online classes for the working class people as well as tjose who do not want to be inside the classroom. So far the classes are a challenge, but the professors are always there to help you out.
Tips for prospective students I would say to make sure you choose a school that is right for you and get all the information before you make a final decision to attend.

Dorm Life There is no on-campus housing for this university as it is primarily an online based university.
Academic Rigor Argosy University has a different approach to semesters that allow you to concentrate and retain the material of two courses while still completing 12 units in a semester. It divides a semester into two sessions of 7.5 weeks in order to ensure you have the opportunity to focus and retain the material of two courses as opposed to four courses over a period of 15 weeks. Although there is more opportunity to focus, it still requires a lot of dedication as the speed of the course is twice as fast as a regular course.
Tips for prospective students I encourage you make sure that you know exactly what program you are interested in. This school is designed to make sure you graduate and has all the resources to do so, but it requires you to be devoted and committed to your academic goals. I recommend you already have your career goals planned or at least an idea because this school will help you attain them quickly.
In three sentences Argosy University is a great university that focuses on helping you achieve your academic goals. It has dedicated teachers and an exceptional learning environment that help you be successful in your program. It is aimed at furthering the passion you have for your field of study and allows you to conveniently obtain a degree in a reasonable amount of time.

Commit to reviewing your syllabus prior to starting the class, and contact the instructor for clarification as soon as time permits.

Also great for students who are trying to do part-time jobs while attending.
What to do for fun That's the best part about the online program. It lets you get to it when it is convenient for YOU. You can literally have a full-time job and a family and still work it into your schedule (in fact many of my peers do just that). Anything that you want to do for fun (legally) remains unchanged.
Food and Dining Since I am part of the online community for this university, I cannot give an accurate rating for this area...
Dorm Life Since I am part of the online community for this university, I cannot give an accurate rating for this area...
Academic Rigor Material is fairly accelerated, and if you remain active on the discussion boards, then it ends up taking up about 30 or so hours a week (~20-25 if you don't). Online research is a big component.
Tips for prospective students Semesters for each class last 5 weeks long. Because of this, they only have you take one class at a time, but the information/learning done about that one subject is quite thorough and accelerated. It lets you focus completely on learning one subject, and you don't have to worry about doing work in one class, while letting grades slip in another (big plus).
In three sentences Pleasant and dedicated student/financial counselors, even if you are an on line student. Course material is accurate, and balance of given information, and required research for assignments is balanced. Five-week long semesters, which takes some getting used to.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Gourmet cook foods for only $10 for a 5 course meal.
Bang for the buck Argosy is a small campus with an average class size of 15 - 20 students. For me this is ideal, better discussions with in a small group where everyone can participate.
What to do for fun Phoenix campus does not have on site dorms. Students have the entire Phoenix Metro Valley to choose their choice of relaxation and fun.
Food and Dining Lunch room is provided for those who bring their own meals. Small store to purchase food plus available to eat in the dining room where students studying in culinary arts prepare lunches and dinner as Argosy's sister college.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Argosy offers blended classes. Which means you will meet on campus once or twice a week, but you turn in your homework online. I really liked that because it kept me from going to school all week.
Bang for the buck I think that Argosy has very reasonable prices. They do all they can to help you get scholarships and financial aide!
What to do for fun I took my first few classes at Argosy on campus but I am an hour and a half from Nashville so I also take online classes. I always enjoyed the classes on campus. They are not large class sizes and it makes it easier to communicate with the teachers. The first few classes that I took on campus were really fun. We cut up a lot after class was over.

Food and Dining Argosy has a cafeteria and I have heard that it is really good but I have never been. I think the Art Institute runs it since they share a building.
Dorm Life Argosy does not have dorms.
Academic Rigor Argosy tries to make sure they take into consideration that most everyone who attends their school has a job and/or a family. They strive to make every one's school experience great!

In three sentences Going to Argosy has been a wonderful school experience! The staff at Argosy is always willing to help with anything you need. Argosy understands that students there have families and jobs outside of school and they try to make it convenient for everyone.

Categories Comments Campus Safety This campus comes fully equipped with round the clock campus security. There is always one guard in campus and one patrolling campus grounds. They produce crime reports, and even have the police patrol every once in a while. I truly feel safe on campus here.
Greek Life There is no Greek life. I think this is better. You have no football stars or frat brothers trampling on our serene environment.
Clubs and Activities I'm not too keen on all the clubs and activities yet, but I know there are some great clubs.
Great for these types of students Online learners. Learners who like an intimate learning experience. Students who flourish in a diverse community.
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus I'd say that our main floor has two unusual locations, one being the cabana, and our other, the on-site mental health clinic that psychology students run and counsel students and public.
Bang for the buck The school is a tad more expensive, but expect to earn a fast degree from trained professionals.
What to do for fun The student government puts together many fun activities to get students involved. There are many lounges and areas for students to meet, get help, and have fun together.
Food and Dining The Art Institute is our partnering campus. Meaning, the food is prepared by culinary masters getting a five-star degree. The delectable smells will waft up your nose and entice you from the second you enter the doors.
Dorm Life There are no dorms at Argosy.
Academic Rigor I have just started, and the first two classes weren't much of a challenge. However, my third class, which is non-introductory, has proved to be informative and rigorous, with much to learn and work on.
Tips for prospective students My tips for prospective students are to: a. not be frazzled by the financial aid aspects. It will come. The computer lab is an immensely helpful tool. b. stay ahead in your modules online. Falling behind is falling prey to dropped classes. c. Do not be afraid to ask for help from the teachers and staff. They may seem intimidating, but everyone at Argosy is kind and knowledgeable.
In three sentences Friendly and helpful administrators and teachers will help students to realize their true potential, and keep on track through their academic journey. The fast-paced, no non-sense degree programs both fit every one's schedules with flexible night and afternoon classes, and allow students to obtain their degree quickly. Even though this is a for-profit school, the academics are top-notch; they have received APA accreditation and their professors have excellent credentials.

Tips for prospective students Be ready to be responsible for readings and research. Also learn the APA format, or pick up a handbook and it will help tons, but they also have tons of resources in the online library and the librarians are helpful as well!
In three sentences I love the challenge, professionalism, knowledge and experience of instructors. The only problem I've had so far is with the financial aid department being timely.

Categories Comments What to do for fun There are many options to fun during college life. Living on campus, you have the options of campus parties, getting together with friends, or just hanging in your dorm watching videos. Online studies have the same advantages other than campus parties you have the option to have a house party, you can get together with friends, or watch a movie and relax.
Food and Dining I would imagine this would also be a plus during college life for on campus students. having the choice of where you would eat at everyday. Online studies also have it perks, because you can still have the pleasure of choosing where you will eat everyday.
Dorm Life Dorm life I imagine would be a plus for those choosing it. I have found taking classes online in the setting of my own home to be better for me.
Academic Rigor Focusing on you academic behavior can be an major asset as well, because if your not serious about it, it will be a waste of time. There are rules that you need to follow when setting a goal for academics. Mainly being for real about what is it you want out of this and not taking for granted the opportunities given to you.
Tips for prospective students Going back to school is an asset to your future endeavors. It is one of the best decisions you could make in your life. Regardless, what you have decided to study or the college of your choice, education is the key to a better life.

Academic Rigor I have not attended the school yet but I was informed by the counselor that the Masters Program is very complex but it provides an in depth curriculum in understanding Human Resource Management.
Tips for prospective students Students should always take the initiative to further their education. I am 34 years old and I started late but I never gave up on success. Understanding that life is tough, never underestimate the power of knowledge. College degrees are not just for the individuals with the high GPA's out of high school anyone can obtain one. I am a 10 year veteran, working full time, and attending school. If I can do it then anyone can. Shoot for the stars and remember you are your own worst barrier in achieving a college degree.
In three sentences This college was very helpful in assisting me with my final decision to apply for their Masters Program in Human Resource Management. Their customer service provided a feeling of acceptance and they also provided a 20% Scholarship for maintaining a 3.5 GPA at University of Phoenix where I obtained my Bachelors Degree. I appreciate their assistance and I am proud to be a part of their future Alumni.

Bang for the buck It's super expensive especially compared to the last school I went to but I think it's worth the money and then some. All the staff has been so nice and helpful to me. They reach out to me to see how I'm doing and if I need anything and if I do ask them for help everybody I have talked to has gone beyond the call of duty. I'm literally walked through whatever problem I have and it's explained to me in a way I can understand. Everything about this school so far is beyond amazing and I'm very happy with going there. i give it a 10 out of 1-10!!!
What to do for fun Well even though I'm not going to a campus, I think it's fun to comment on as many students as I can because I enjoy reading the different answers. Also checking out all the different programs available to me is fun.
Food and Dining Same answer as above, my classes are online.
Dorm Life I am online so I don't know about this area.
Academic Rigor There are rules that are mandatory to read and follow, you have to turn the assignments in on time but if something comes out just reach out to your advisor and work something out. So far both my advisor's have been very helpful and worked with me when I had issues. There's a discussion board for every assignment 1 and it's mandatory that I post on at least 3 different students, more is suggested because we are graded on our participation and this a huge part of the grade, at least twice a week. The assignments all have formats to follow and we're graded points for all the different formats for the assignment to equal the final grade. It's super easy to submit assignments and comment on the discussion board but u have to have the word program in order to complete some assignments.
Tips for prospective students Check it out and get going! Not only is the staff helpful and nice but they truly care about you doing well. They reach out to me several times a week even if I haven't asked them to first. They all are there to answer questions and do what they can to see that all my questions are answered. The assignments are spaced out and there's time between them to ask questions. I went to another University campus and this school has been amazing compared. I am happy with this school and suggest check it out and see what you think.
In three sentences Awesome!! Helpful, knowledgable & very nice facuality. Easy to get help if needed and assignments are spaced out. Great interaction betyween students and so far worth the money.

Tips for prospective students If you are looking for a great academic college that works around you work and family schedule and works withe your financial situations this is the best school for you , not only do the do those things the staff is very friendly, down to earth and helpful. Argosy makes sure that you are in the right class for you and that you are financially able to attend each semester and will not enroll you in a class that would put you in a bind when it comes to paying the cost being a college student trying to achieve a higher education and what ever degree you are trying to attain.

Bang for the buck I like that the book were included with the tuition. Also they have a small scholarship within the school for good grades. The library online has, so far all the information I need. I am shocked how much knowledge I have absorbed in such little time.
Food and Dining Once again, I cannot advise about their campuses. I attend online.
Dorm Life I am attending online, so I cannot not advise on the dorm life.
Academic Rigor I can recommend the online University program. Again, I am only a freshman, but I am learning so much at Argosy. I took some General Ed. classes before at a campus years ago, I didn't feel I was learning anything. I just finished assignments, but was not really taught anything. So I gathered college was not really for me.
Tips for prospective students My advice is to try to study some of your classwork daily, until you get a study regimen. I was told once, Anything you do for 21 days becomes a habit, by Unknown. I was crying and struggling in the beginning. I am a freshman and currently earning a 4.0!
In three sentences I didn't expect this University to teach me so much, so soon. I thought it would be relatively easy. I am learning so much about proper grammar, time management, study skills, stress management, budgeting, plagiarism, and I am only a freshman!

Categories Comments What to do for fun There is not much going on at Argosy University, but there activities and functions that some of the school's groups put together. There are also seminars and meetings with important people that the school will set up for you.

Dorm Life There are no dorms at Argosy University.
Academic Rigor I give Argosy University four stars because no one is perfect and some teachers will be very harsh and be very meticulous in their grading.
Tips for prospective students If you are accepted in Argosy, make sure you apply for every scholarship or loan you can get! Argosy is a private university so it is more expensive than other colleges, but it is well worth it as it will have all the classes you need to take either online or in-class.

Bang for the buck Argosy the instructor are great they call at the beginning to interduce themselves and to see if you have any question about the course. The faculty is also excellent they also call in the beginning and along the way in the course to check how you are doing and if there is any problems you may have.

Categories Comments Campus Safety The only incident that's ever occured was one time there was a fire in the student lounge. But everyone was evacuated from the campus safely and the fire was put out before it got serious. Other than that, I have never felt unsafe at school. Not even then, actually.
Greek Life Argosy University has no life greek life.
Clubs and Activities There's always something available for you to do at Argosy. I get so many emails on the workshops and activities they have going on at campus, it's crazy!
Great for these types of students If you are looking to major in psychology and want a more serious envronment, Argosy is for you. If you're looking to goof off and attend college parties then I wouldn't recommend Argosy University. The school offers serious fields and majors for you to go in and the student population is mostly middle aged. If that works for you, go for it!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus None really come to mind, to be honest. Matter of fact, I doubt Argosy has any unusual traditions. No specific locations either. The school is just a sort of office building in Arlington, VA. Very deceiving if you're on the outside looking in, because you wouldn't think there'd be a forensic lab, computer lab, dozens of classrooms on several floors, and it's own library.
Bang for the buck I'm not trying to make my school sound perfect, because every college has it's flaws. The issues I've come across in the 2 yrs I've been a student were just some financial errors and mistakes where I was given a course I didn't need and then has to later withdraw from. Aside from that, it is a wonderful school.
What to do for fun Argosy is always hosting meetings and gatherings on campus for the students to participate in. Whether it's a holiday thing or just something random for the students to be apart of.
Food and Dining Argosy doesn't have a cafeteria, but there is a student lounge with a microwave, fridge, and drink/snack machines. I wouldn't mind either way of they did or didn't have an entire cafeteria available.
Dorm Life Argosy University doesn't doesn't have dorms. In m opinion, that doesn't make it better or worse than any other college that does have dorms. I think colleges with on-campus living seems more distracting for the student and why 1st year students tend to drop out and/or fail.
Academic Rigor They are so on top of participation and tardiness. You miss three assignments or miss three scheduled classes (without giving your instructor a proper excuse prior to that day), and you fail. And if you miss more than that, you're withdrawn from the school entirely. I think this is a good thing because all you're doing is wasting the school's time and your money. Argosy is no nonsense when it comes to the education they provide.
Tips for prospective students The only tip I have to give is don't hesitate to express yourself. Meaning you will not feel like you can't ask for help or express whatever you're concerned about towards your education at Argosy.
In three sentences This school is so attentive and helpful to the students. They even care about what you think and feel, and are open to your concerns and opinions about the school in general, classes, instructors, etc. What I love the most is the option to be present in class or participate online, or even both!

Food and Dining Argosy University Phoenix is located near a major shopping area with lots of restaurants around.
Dorm Life I don't know much about the dorm life. I live at home and all my classes are online.
Tips for prospective students Shop around. Find the best school with the best program that best suits you. Don't just settle for something. Go for the gold!
In three sentences I am enrolled in the Master of Arts program for Forensic Psychology. I find it extremely easy to into Argosy and to go to class with it being all on my computer. I would recommend Argosy to anyone.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus They have both on campus classes and full time online classes for those students who have a hectic schedule and aren't able to attend a brick and mortar college.
Bang for the buck More expensive than some programs and less expensive than others. It depends on what you're studying and what you want to do with the knowledge once you graduate.
What to do for fun Join clubs, connect with your classmates outside of an academic setting. Revel in everyday!
Academic Rigor A C at my school is considered failing.
Tips for prospective students Do your research! Ask the hard questions, read reviews, make sure what you're thinking matches what the school is offering. NEVER rush into your choice of school. It's an investment and your future on the line.
In three sentences Easy to navigate website. Staff willing and ready to answer all your questions. Can't wait to begin my Master's Program with them.

Categories Comments Bang for the buck Not only are the classes cutting edge and up to date, the online library access is immense providing access to nearly all academic journals, newspaper articles, magazine articles, and other avenues that have information pertaining your specific topic.
Academic Rigor The online classes are accelerated and fast paced with much information being covered each week. For the Masters program, there is required textbook reading, lots of additional research, three assignments due each week, and a major project due in each class. In addition, personal interviews are required at least twice per class from the community to build knowledge and networking.
Tips for prospective students Argosy provides an online version and many campus students take online courses as well. This means that one must be very serious about their studies, self-motivated, and dedicated to their degree and future career.
In three sentences The Psychology programs at Argosy University are some of the best in the nation, are very informative, and provide subjects that are actually beneficial for the workplace. The Facilitators are extremely knowledgeable and all currently work in the field in some capacity. The advising staff are wonderful, keep in contact regularly and are extremely encouraging at all times.

The ability to schedule school work around all the many facets of my life has been amazingly simple. The terms are short and fast paced, but you learn so much. If you can't make it to a campus for classes Argosy University Online is your best bet!
Bang for the buck Argosy University Online is an awesome opportunity for students like me who work full time, and have a family. I am able to schedule class time around my word and family schedules. Any time I need to talk to staff I just have to email or call them, I have never had to wait longer than about one hour for a response via email, and I am connected almost immediately via phone. I love this school and the flexibility it allows me.
What to do for fun The home school holds student appreciation days that are awesome.

Greek Life Eww. No.
Clubs and Activities Quite a variety! Even travel abroad programs!!
Great for these types of students People who do not like sitting in class with 150 other people, with stadium seating, and instead of personally talking to the professor, it is the TA who is just as rued! Argosy is perfect for people who want to get to know their professors as well as their classmates. People who like to be graded on more than just three exams a semester (this is how it is at huge universities). You actually feel like you have a say in your education; for once you don't feel like a zombie!
Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus Locations... theres a walkway from under Argosy leading to Macy's on State Street!
Bang for the buck The education quality is worth it!
What to do for fun Again, it is a huge city with anything from museums to beaches. Whatever adventure you are looking for, you will definitely find it in the heart of City! Oh and the campus is right next to Millennium Park.... a perfect place for between classes!
Food and Dining Chicago Style Hot Dogs and Pizza! Hows that for food?!? The city is your'e dining experience... better than dorm food I'd say!
Dorm Life NO DORMS!! City life, night life, and no sucky dorm mates!
Academic Rigor I have attended three different universities and I did not feel like I had learned anything, but when I started at Argosy I felt like I was actually getting something out of my education!
Tips for prospective students If the big campus life, where no one knows you and you know no one, is not your idea of fun; check Argosy out. Just call the admissions office and someone will immediatly get back to you, answer all your questions, and walk you through it step by step!
In three sentences Chicago campus is APA accredited and allows one the option of either online courses or on campus. Smaller classes with great teachers that actually take the time of day to talk to you as well as help you (no lecture halls where the teacher doesn't know you)! Anything I have ever needed help with academically, the resources have always been readily available. It is an awesome school!

What to do for fun Because I am not hampered by a traditional classroom, I can go wherever I want, whenever I want. I can even go out of state and not have to worry about missing any assignments or school hours. I love the freedom of online learning.
Food and Dining As an online student, I can choose whatever I want to eat at any time that I want to eat it. I can stop my school day to be able to do whatever it is that I want to do for food.
Dorm Life As I am enrolled in the online classes only, my dorm life is my own living room. Who could ask for a better dorm life than that?
Academic Rigor The classes are set up online so that you can focus on one class at a time without having to worry about taking multiple classes at one time. This eliminates the worry of multiple homework tasks from varying classes.
Tips for prospective students If you are looking for a college that fits into your schedule, this is the college for you. They walk you through all of the tougher aspects of getting into college and make sure that you have a clear idea of what you would like to do with your college and future career.
