    Thanks to UoPeople, I obtained my associate of science degree in computer science while working full-time.
    In my opinion, the university's biggest strength is offering small-sized courses. Each course has 8 study units (1 unit = 1 week). Each study unit contains a blend of reading material and short assignments that must be submitted during that same week. Because of this, the workload is very steady and predictable, which comes extremely handy for people who work or have other obligations. After completing these 8 study units, students must immediately do their final exam inside a 4-days window.
    The system's design disallows procrastination. Students must stay on top of the courses, and the workload is evenly spread. Completing your studies at this university does require a lot of work. However, the university removes some of that pressure by providing students with a well-oiled system. Lastly, the teachers are very knowledgeable and approachable.
    I am very proud of being an UoPeople graduate.

    I m reading these comments everyone seems happy and excited. Your advisor is a robot ok any questions you have seems like an automatic reply with a link. If English is not your first language good luck understanding all of that. I asked for a call because it is better for me to understand by talking nor reading. I need help there’s no one and that’s why I go to RUclips but it’s not that helpful. Good luck everyone I hope and wish you don’t end up like me 😢🥺

    I wonder how can someone be involved in UoPeople course ma, and work at the same time ? For the student here is super busy, even with 2 courses per term already. For me, a full time student can’t take more than 2 courses per term. Except if the goal is to just get a degree, but not knowledge really... Meaning you just manage to do your assignments somehow, without reading the textbooks

A term lasts for 9 weeks, so you'll be paying the fee once in every 8 to 9 weeks; not every month.

      You can transfer your credits over to UoPeople when you apply! Our accreditation is a clear indication of the academic excellence and rigorous standards of UoPeople. That being said, we can’t guarantee that our degrees or credits will be accepted by other international academic institutions or employers, since this is determined by each institution individually. Many of our students and graduates report continuing their education at universities including NYU, MIT, the University of Auckland (New Zealand), the University of Nairobi (Kenya), Sapienza University of Rome (Italy) and many more. UoPeople graduates have used their education to work at top international companies and organizations such as Google, IBM, Apple, Dell, Microsoft, Amazon and even the United Nations! 💜

      @@yoursmagazine8345 please note that you will be able to apply for scholarship to help you with the course assessment fees -- after you have been admitted. I must also inform you that the available scholarships are limited and they are awarded to students on a first-come-first-served basis, and we do not guarantee that all students will receive scholarships. If you already started your online application, please send an email to your admissions advisor or to admissions@uopeople.edu to request for a grant to assist you with the application fee. Keep in mind that we do not offer scholarships and grants for the MBA program at this time.
