UMUC is very nice for military members and families. This is because the classes are only eight weeks long (due to deployments and state-to-state moves) and the per credit hour price is more affordable for military members and dependents. Also, UMUC offers several online classes, degrees, and certifications. This would be helpful for part-time students or students who work better online than in a traditional classroom setting.

A person who wants to succeed. A person who is very responsible and indepenent, but they know when to ask and recieve help. This person needs to have an end goal in mind ot help them stay focused. Also, they need to catch on quickly with the class session being so fast at only eight weeks long. Like any student, this person would have to be ogranized with their class work so they can meet deadlines and help keep their grades up.

I do not recommend this school for high school graduates. Many students who attend UMUC are Military Veterans and adults who are continuing there education. The majority of students are taking online courses thus there is not alot of face to face interaction. This school is ideal for non traditional students and military veterans who wish to complete their degree in a timely fashion. The class that are schedule are done so with working students in mind so that they can carry a full time job and still attend school.
