Capella university Reviews

I enrolled in Capella because the courses were cheap, but as the old saying goes, you get what you pay for. The first class I enrolled in was the Ethics course. I used to teach ethics, so I figured this would be a breeze.

I was absolutely shocked to see how much wrong information the university has in the course work. They pass off what is clearly whimsical opinions about a situation and present it as an "ethical framework". One item I remember well, under Divine Command Theory, said "eating veal is okay because the Bible says we may eat all living things". I clicked "report a problem with this question" at the bottom of the screen and quoted Leviticus 11, where it clearly says some foods are unclean.

In other places in the course, the answers on the tests completely contradict the actual coursework, and it's literally impossible to get the answers right because you just have to guess at what the author happened to think at the moment SHOULD be the right answer, completely irrespective of the ethics or philosophy.

I tried contacting the university several times by reporting problems with questions. They didn't offer any valid explanation, and basically responded with either weak justifications, or simply repeating the answers to the questions I reported.

I'm seriously wondering how on earth they got accredited... also, if this is the ethics course, I can't imagine what the other courses will be like.

As an adult learner pursing an advanced degree I enrolled in Capella University with a great deal of apprehension. I was greeted by an enrollment counselor who assisted with my enrollment process and it was an outstanding experience. Every step of the way the faculty was supportive and wanted all students to be successful. My doctoral project mentor was absolutely amazing and provided the support necessary every step of the way for my success. The collaboration with other professionals through the program helped to develop friendships beyond school, some of us were able to meet at graduation. The graduation ceremonies and activities were outstanding and the highest quality. My experience with Capella University was memorable and has allowed me to achieve my life long goal of both teaching and nursing. An outstanding educational program.

I had a great experience at Capella University. I completed my master's in Medical Health Administration and returned for my master's certificate in Public Health. My professors were fantastic and the school sets you up for success. It was a lot of hard work and I graduated with distinction. I feel that the school, classes and professors contributed to my great experience.

When I first started signing up for my MBA I advised them that I had just graduated with my bachelors degree. My goal was to start August 5, and I submitted all my necessary paperwork and cooperated as such. When it got to my transcripts I was advised I could not start because the conferral date was not on the transcripts. The enrollment specialist told me to reach out to my previous school. I did and it was a hassle. I called the enrollment specialist at Capella to advise of the updates to only find out that Capella s registrar team had already been in contact with my school. I wanted to start on the 5th as it was very discouraging to go through the process to be turned away at last minute. 1). Total waist of time as I took time out of my day to complete orientation and do what they advised of me. 2) I asked to speak with a supervisor who was very vague and could not provide the information needed. 3) I again called Capella to try and escalate the situation, but the manager never returned my call. I feel as if they had me sign up because they were the ones to get paid for each student to enroll and failed to educate me properly in the beginning, which is very misleading and discouraging. Since no one wanted to comply and take responsibility I will be escalating this to the BBB as this is not my fault and I should had been able to start in the promised time given and should have been educated properly.

My experience with Capella was great while receiving my BA so I decided to continue and get my MBA as well. Biggest mistake!! The course instructors are rude and offer no help whatsoever. There is no way to reach out to them besides sending a message and they have up to 3 days to respond. The college has strict policies that they hold the students to but let instructors slide and they do not back up there students at all. They give you an advisor who attempts to be helpful but you can rarely reach them and always receive help from someone different every time you call in. They only care about money and their instructors. Worst experience ever I would not recommend anyone get their graduate degree from this institution.

I absolutely love the fact that I registered for the MSW program last year. It was the best decision I've made since completing my bachelor's degree. I love the online learning aspect and feel that it provides me with just enough of what I need and nothing of what I don't. The only reason not to give it five stars is because the reformatted the classrooms (online) and they are much harder to navigate on the screen.

Worst school to deal with. I started school here and had to figure everything out on my own. After a semester, my wife lost her job and we moved states. I didn't attend for a year. When we settled, i started back up, but was forced to reenroll. I was then told that since I was still paying off my tuition from prior semester, I cant register for classes until late September (wasting whole summer semester). Due to timing, i enrolled at a different college to be able to continue with school faster. They are not refusing to release my transcript to my new school due to the same reason. I even offered to roll the remaining balance into my student loan, and they refused that too. Have been completely unwilling to even listen to my requests. Will definitely not be continuing my education here!

As a student and Ambassaor at Capella University, I've had nothing but great experiences. The faculty have always been really great and super helpful. I highly recommend Capella if you are seeking a quality education and have a busy schedule or need the flexibility of online schooling. The schoolwork is great and you're not bombarded with too much work at one time. Everything is paced just right.

From the beginning of my Master's level school search, Capella stood out. I had a great recommendation from a friend already, but in researching complete online programs to work with my schedule, Capella checked all of the boxes I needed. I had a wonderful experience with my admissions counselor and continue to have great interactions with all communication. I am happy with all faculty thus far and feel that I am learning exactly what I need for my future as a school counselor. The course load is what I expected it to be and the time I spend on classwork is time well spent. I feel very confident that I will be prepared to enter the field of school counseling when I graduate. The very first thing Capella does once you are enrolled is to start you in a class to help navigate your program and get you familiar with the online format. This helped immensely and calmed my nerves for entering into a graduate program online. I feel very well cared for and have not had a negative experience yet! I am 1 year into my program.

This is my second master's degree, and Capella University has been amazing. The university offers scholarships to the students, and this was not offered at my previous online university. The professors are very responsive to the student's needs. They are available during the week in the online classroom platform. Capella is highly recommended in meeting one's educational goals.
