Re: University of Phoenix
Posted by Donald on 10/20/06

    I'm a former UOP student and I was satisfied with them. First,
    not all schools require students to take the SATs, as is the case
    with community colleges. With most online schools, all you need
    is a high school diploma to be admitted. Second, while I do not
    agree with the whole concept of learning teams, they are there to
    prepare you for the working world since you will be required to
    work with others, even if they are not that helpful.
