Considered going here for my MFA in Creative Writing. Changed my mind because of multiple concerns.. I first spoke with them I set an appointment for an adviser to call; they never did. Then I got an email saying, "sorry we missed you" call us back etc. They were also supposed to email info about the program. They didn't.
When I called back I got an adviser who knew nothing about the program I was interested in. Told me to call someone else the next day. THEN, I had a financial aid question, and the representative in the FA department (separate call) told me she didn't know the answer, and I asked

Anybody who complains about this school are people whose hands need to be held for everything. It's not for everyone because you definitely have to seek out information but I'm used to fast-paced, sink or swim environments. I loved the professors and I made a lot of good friends. It's a great education, a great school, and great campus. Be sure to check out the mentor program if you do need some extra guidance.

All you get from this school is a worthless piece of paper to be hung on the wall. That is all! Most of their instructors are a joke. They're incompetent, unprofessional and try hard to put students down and give students low grades. Their staff and administrators including admissions advisors are another horror story. They're unprofessional, unfriendly, inexperienced, and careless. They neither answer emails nor phone calls, and if they answer they take many days to do so. To sum it up, this school is just a commercial company to make as much money as they can out of the students' pockets. If

Bait and Switch? This school sounded great to continue my education. They waived the $60 application fee and started the enrollment process quickly. They stated I would be able to take classes for 3 months while my aid packet processed. This was all lies. I ordered my transcripts mailed them off and took my placement test.
It took the school 3 months to locate my transcripts after they were mailed. There was poor communication during this period. All of my financial aid forms were timely submitted. The school claimed they could not process them until, here comes the switch, I pay a $60 dollar

I've had a great experience at this school. It is definitely geared towards veterans and people already working full time. Courses are only a month long so they go by very fast and tests/papers carry a lot of weight due to the short nature of the class. I started off in person and actually really enjoyed the professors I've had as well as other classmates. I ended up moving and I'm finishing up online. Online is not quite as engaging obviously but it's still been pretty good. Except for one GI Bill certification issue, which was fixed as soon as I called, they have been very prompt about answering

So far, so good. This school has been tailored to fit the working student, which is great for me. I have a family and full-time job that keeps me pretty busy. National has been able to provide me with a schedule and instructors that have been willing to "work" with me. I am scheduled to graduate this June, I'll update my review as soon as I have completed my program.

My one star is for my amazing advisor Karla Payne and that is it. My experience was okay, less then satisfying until "graduation" when I didn't receive anything after paying 100 dollars for the fee. This place is a scam, they will do whatever they need to get money out of you. I have a third party paying for my course and finical aid (grants) to pay for books and anything that may have been needed. After about three/ four months I decided to call and see what happen. Maybe something was lost in the mail. They said to me that I owed them over 1700 dollars....this was after I had a 0.00 balance upon

Acceptance:
Getting accepted into the Graduate program was an easy and smooth process which is the best thing I have experience thus far. That's the only reason I gave it 2 stars.
Advisor:
My Advisor signed me up for classes for the next year without my consent or knowledge. I didn't think to check for upcoming classes because I had not signed up for any. Then all of a sudden I got an email and a call from my advisor reminding me of my upcoming classes. This is a little pushy if you ask me.

Very easy to sign-up and I love my advisor! She gave me a thorough introduction to the school and classes. However, getting financial aid processed is a pain! I was informed that the disbursement would be 1-2 weeks from the time I enrolled in my first class. It is now 6 weeks later (8 weeks since I turned in my FAFSA). My first book was $264 out-of-pocket, and my next book will be about $150 which is a lot since for me since I am currently working part-time and am a single mom of two. I've already received multiple messages and a letter about an outstanding balance that needed to be paid. When
