I am majoring in Medical Insurance Billing and Coding. This was my choice because I am familiar wtih this line of work. I was surprised that I have been so challenged in my courses. I thought I knew most of what I needed to know. I found out that I was wrong and I am glad I took this major. I think I am a better employee and person for taking my classes. Students are very friendly and willing to offer advice. It has been a competive school in a since that I do not know what grades others are receiving but, I still feel a need to excel and be able to help my classmates if I can.

My favorite classes are the classes that have videos that can help me out with the work in the class. These classes are majority of my technology classes. I really like some of my professors because they listen to what I say and then go out of their way to make sure I understand anything that I am confused about. I can say the education is geared towards getting a job but I also see it being geared to older adults and not students who have just come out of high school

There are a lot of hands on activities for the field which one is studying. This helps with the learning process.

I love attending Everest Online University. It has allowed me to get a college education while working full time as well. Everest offers multiple resources to help you academically and help you find a job in your area after you graduate. The professors and the students are all very nice and are willing to do whatever they can to help you succeed in your studies. I love attending Everest and would totally recommend this college to anyone searching for one.

Class participation is necessary for the success of a class. The online class discussions allow students to voice their opinions about the subjects. This allows students to assist one another as they would during class time on campus. The education at this school is geared toward obtaining a job after graduation.

The academics are very personal and rewarding. You take the classes in your own time throughout the week and the instructors usually go out of their way to ensure your problems are handled as soon as possible. Not to mention at Everest University Online, there are plenty of resources that the school ensures that are at your fingertips.

I hope that my professors know my name.
My favorite class right now would be Computer Applications and my least favoirite would be Basic Critical Thinking.
For me I study all the time and I can't really say anything about any oter students.
Class participation is common because that is what we get graded on.
My major is Medical Billing and Coding.
This education will help me get a better job and a better life for me and my daughter

The Professors are amazing here. The classes are small so they have time to provide feedback on everyone. If you get the answer wrong or do not answer it fully they simply ask you to elaborate and they help you through it.

The academics at Everest Online are like no other. Being an online school the academics are very different than those of a brick and mortar school however, they are in my opinion still very highly ranked.
The professors have been wonderful for the most part. Of course like any college you will run into one here or there that you are just not compatible with, but overall I have had some great relationships with my professors. During my college experience thus far, I have had 2 children, the first one I had was born prematurely and I had a professor who helped me outside of class with the issues my son was facing, she took a real concern for his well-being and still contacts me from time to time to check on him and I have not had her for 4 semesters. The last 2 semesters I have had health issues for myself during my pregnancy and my professors have been understanding, willing to work with me, and genuinely concerned for my well being and the well being of my baby. If you let your professors know what is going on in your life in advance most of them will work with you to make sure you get your work done without losing your grade.
Another part of academics that I like is that even though we are in online classes we can still make friends in classes, to help each other etc. we can talk outside of class via emails or even social networking such as facebook.
I am a Business Administration major, my classes have been perfectly chosen to meet the skills of what I need to accomplish to obtain the specific job that I want. Ninety percent of my classes are core classes for my major and not unnecessary classes that I do not need, which makes it much nicer that I am completing classes I actually am interested in and not ones that have nothing to do with my job type.
