Since I have not officially started, I cannot answer what is the worst thing about University of Phoenix.

The worst thing about my school would be the process to get started. There are so many forms you have to fill out it gets very stressfull. There is so much information you have to give them before beginning and so many deadlines you have to make. I had filled out all my forms but we had to wait for my fafsa and other forms to be transferred to my school. Since we had to wait I missed the deadline to start school when I wanted to and now have to wait over a month to start.

The price. It is expensive and I had to take out student loans for the first time. It's a little nerve-wracking, but I feel it will be worth it in the long run.

The worst thing about my school is the maniditory use of learning teams. I understand that they use them in order to prepare you for the business world. I do not like working in teams. I am an independent learner and prefer to learn on my own time. The learning teams forces you to complete assignments based on all teammates schedules. This can be a hassle if you work in a team with conflicting schedules.

This is a private university which acts more like a business than an educational institute.

Some people seem to not work as hard as others, and should not earn an online degree. Phoenix is making improvements in this area. It creates an unfair work load for those that make a true effort in classes.

I would not say its the worst thing about the University of Phoenix, but just online schools in general. I think the worst thing about online schools is you do not get the face to face interaction and do not get to be involved in sports.

The worst thing about my school is that the professors assign team assignments and sometimes you get assigned to a team with students who do not want to contribute to the project, but expect a good grade. This is probably the case at any school, but this is the worst thing I can think of about my current school.

It's harder to get one on one help in person.

The worst thing about my school is the amount of money we pay per class. I pay over 1800.00 for just one class. It also seems that each year the tutition goes up, but the corse material stayes the same. This is my biggest complaint reguarding my experience with the University of Phoenix online.
