They were helpful in getting me financial aid and helped me fill out the enrollment paperwork. Other schools just were not as friendly.

Alejandra

When looking for schools, I looked for one that really focused on my major. A school that would result in an education, knowledge, and an experience that would last me forever.

Krystal

I go to school online. I am a single mother of two children who also works full-time. The ability to be in an accellerated program allowing me to focus on one class at a time is very important to me. I can teach my daughters the importance of education as they watch how hard I must work in order to acheive high grades. My current GPA is 3.76 out of 4.

Billi Jo

I searched many online schools to find one that fit me. It was difficult for me to find an online school that offered an Associte degree in Early Childhood Education. Of the very few schools I did find Ashford was the only one that was interested in telling me about their program before they asked how I planned on paying for my education. I felt the other schools were more worried about being paid than they were my education.

Tracy

The online aspect appealed to me and that I attended the graduation ceremony held in Clinton, Iowa. That was something I was able to share with my family even though my classes were online.

Mindy

I chose Ashford University after speaking with their faculty on the phone and found their faculty very informative, understanding and forthcoming. Ashford University has an easily accessible website with many ways to research information for projects or essays within their excellent library and other wide ranged available resource tools. When I started school at Ashford University, working full-time and raising three kids at the same time makes it hard, but I did it. I graduated in 2012 with my Associates Degree in Business, because Ashford encouraged and believed in me and helped me do the same thing for myself.

michael

the unique characteristics of Ashford University would have to be the attentiveness of the advisors. Though it is their prerogative to enroll new students, the attitude was not pushy nor overbearing. The admissions advisors were and are very informative and helpful, in providing me the information to allow my own decisions. The time spent answering my barrage of questions was extremely appreciative. Unlike the other schools i made inquires to, who became incessantly obtrusive with phone calls and emails. . Ashford would schedual the appointments and only contact upon the meeting time. It has been an absolute pleasure dealing with Ashford.

The most unique feature I believe about this school os the incredible diversity and the sheer amount of students from varying backgrounds most notablly the military stationed all over the world.

Futhermore, Ashford can transfer up to 99 completed units.

Ashford University is a very close and friendly campus. In August 2010, my incoming freshman class doubled the campus size and they are looking to keep improving the student numbers. They are also renovating campus and they are basically moving the campus from one location to another. Also, the professors here are great and the people here are very friendly! Ashford is definitely a close school but a great choice for me!

The school I am currently attending is online. It provides me with freedom and allows me to be creative in the different asignments I do. I chose this school because it did not require logging in every single day and at or no later than a certain time. Although the classes are challenging and are 5weeks long, they are not so challenging that I can't raise my children and do things that needs to be done. System is easy to navigate.

Mirinda

My school is unique because it offers online programs, and a lot of them. You can do everything online to earn a bachelors degree without ever stepping foot onto a campus. Some of the benefits of doing your classes online are: You can do them at your convenience, you don't have to drive to class, you can do things at your pace , which if you work fast you really can get a lot done. If your school offers this you should consider taking advantage.

Marsha

Ashford University is set up for "older" learners with busy lives. The pace is fast but can fit into your schedule due to all classes being available online. Each class takes only 5 weeks instead of an entire semester, although a lot of information is covered in this short time, since you are focused on one subject at a time, it makes it very user friendly.

They have allowed me to get my degree in a timely fashion, without creating a less than superb program. They allow me to get the same education someone who goes on campus is receiving but with a more convenient method.

Margaret

Ashford University offers online degrees; as a married mom of a two year old and pregnant with my second child, I needed a flexible schedule and at-home education, which is why I chose Ashford. Many other colleges do not have online programs, and some that do have very high tuition fees. Ashford offers many online degrees, and for a price that is still high, but more reasonable than some.

I am an online student who chose Ashford for comparative prices and University's commendable background history.

Everyone there is willing to help in every way that they can. Professors, teacher aides, and advisors are all great to work with.

The few items that make Ashford unique from other schools is the personal touch each student receives. Both the faculty and staff know most of the students by name and often show concern for them, no matter what it is they deal with. Ashford is a smaller school, yet it provides, in most cases, a better education than any of the larger schools in the nation. The instructors care for how well each student does and will help them to be successful after they graduate. The smaller class sizes allow more open discussion of topics.
