Just completed the UOP Criminal Justice and Security program. It took me two years. You have to really create your own mess to run into problems with this program. I had 12 different instructors and they all had their own style. Some were very strict while others simply managed the flow of the class. Anyone writing negative reviews about a school is probably a below average student to begin with. I am glad to have taken this challenging program.

I really enjoyed my MS in the Administration of Criminal Justice and Security at the University of Phoenix. The materials and course work were challenging, and assisted me in further developing my analytical skills. I had excellent professors who had ample experience and who were leaders in their professional fields. Most importantly, I had a great group of professional peers going through the program with me, who, like our professors and the course material, challenged my thinking. Those challenges made me a better CJ professional, and gave me a broader understanding of Crime Justice as a whole.

The program is an intense 18 month commitment not to be entered into without serious thought to the time you can commit. I had research papers due constantly, and was still expected to fully participate in discussions, etc. I also worked full-time; I had to balance school, work, spousal time,and time with my children; most night ended at 2am for me because of the work load. I learned many things from my experience that have spoken value in my profession.

I have been a student at this school for over a year. I have encountered hidden cost and no support system. I have no academic counselor and none of my other counselors are of any help, but yet I pay to have these services. I have to admit that the classroom experince is great. As a sinlge mother that works full time the classes fit perfectly into my scheduler and my professors are very helpful and informative
