Bellevue University — Attraction in Bellevue

I am attending Bellevue now. Key knowledge for applicants: They went the extra mile to accept my existing credits from a fully accredited school in the Midwest. I'm in the online program. Once you understand the drill, the process works beautifully. I work on my classes when I want to, I've learned key things for my degree, and they are fully accredited. This is a fantastic way to get your degree.

I was ecstatic to see the Kirkpatrick series was part of the curriculum. Like every student, I want my study to work toward the future I'm planning in IT. But this should be a requirement in every school, starting in grade school. It's what's missing from most curricula.

You get such generous acceptance of your existing credit hours, and it is so easy to knock out what remains that you aren't losing anything vs another school. Other schools will also have curricula to round out your education, but it's in something less useful. If you hate our country, you can always go to another school and learn to be a societal ingrate. They teach that everywhere.

The cost is not the lowest, but somewhere in the middle. Everyone I've spoken to at the school is extremely helpful. About everything. Bookstore, Financial Aid, Student Services, etc.

8 years later: The fully accredited degree I received at BU has opened many doors for me. I've landed high level roles and my marketability is significantly higher. Often, the employer wants only to see a technical degree.

It is also very helpful that you receive a semester of credit in the time ordinarily taken to complete a quarter. You can use this to complete 2 years of curricula in only one year.

Regarding the Kirkpatrick Series: I didn't find it to favor any political ideology. Rather, it gets you thinking about the fundamentals of various ideologies. It helps you to understand why our founders were wary of any form of government, but ultimately decided it...

By far, the worst experience ever! I NEVER write reviews but I felt that it was absolutely necessary to write about my experience with this school.

I was very ill last year for half of the year and attempted to remain enrolled in school. After not being able to stay on top of the work, I decided to withdraw during 2 Quarters. I was told after the 2nd Quarter that I would not need to file an appeal for financial assistance as my appeal would carry over into that next quarter and that I would receive financial assistance. Please keep in mind that I provided all of the documentation from my doctor and had provided numerous emailed communications. 3rd Quarter, 3 weeks into the Quarter and literally the day before my disbursement was supposed to be deposited to my school account, I receive an e-mail that my aid has been suspended. After many calls and escalations and weeks of pleading, I was told that I had 2 options: a) Pay $700+ that day to remain enrolled in the current course and pay the remaining balance within a few weeks or b)Withdraw from the University completely. Yes, those were my options. Instead of Bellevue owning up to the fact that they obviously had an incompetent rep, that is working in the financial aid office, giving out inaccurate information that could affect a student's livelihood, they basically told me too bad! If I could afford to pay $700 at the very moment that someone asked me to, I probably would not require financial assistance. I decided to withdraw from the University and I am now enrolled in another MHA program and thriving!! I absolutely WOULD not and could not stay enrolled with a school that obviously cares nothing about their students! If you decide to attend school here, best of luck! Please take all of the horrible reviews into consideration! It is...

I am graduating with my Bachelors in August. My advisor Nakita was great and extremely nice. She will do everything she can to make sure you succeed. All the teachers give good feedback and they will work with you. You get what you give. Time management, learning the material given, and being able to follow instructions will set you up to pass.

I had a few bad grades back in 2022. I took a year off and came back stronger, changing my major, and getting all A's and B+ for the remainder of my undergraduate. If I get all A's with my Kirkpatrick Series this summer than I will graduate with over a 3.0 overall GPA and my major GPA is 3.7. Point is you are the master of your own education. I will be able to pursue my master degree. I have grown so much from college in the past two years.

I had my eldest daughter when I was 18. I was in poverty but I always tried to make it out. I went to trade school then I decided to get my degree. It was an adjustment going back to school when I was 25. I had my youngest daughter in the end of 2020 and wanted to go to school while I was a stay at home mom. It was trying to say the least. I had so many personal issues because life will always be life.

I have become someone I can say without a doubt, my daughters could be proud of. I have become someone I can be proud of. No one else in my entire family has graduated college. I am able to confidently provide a future for myself and my family. I suppose not everyone has the same experience or likes the school but I will always be grateful to this university.

I guess this was long compared to other reviews, but I really wanted to share...
