I'm an graduate from university of the people with an associates and bachelors degree! I haven't had a hard time of transferring my credits using Sophia, etc. I also landed a position as a business analyst/project management at an insurance company with the help of this degree and helped established my own book publishing business
No you're not lol. UoP is a scam degree mill that's run out of Israel lol.
That's awesome!
Can you tell me what the course work was like? Is it the typical "papers" like everyone says about online schools? What were the tests like? How long did it take you to finish?
Congratulations and thank you for this ❤
🎉 how long did it take you?
Thanks for the review. It makes me clear for a decision making process. Appreciated
I’m surprised that the pass rate is so low. I just graduated with a BS in health science. I will say that the information in this video is accurate. In terms of difficulty, and I’m not exaggerating, rn school was about 5 times harder. It is definitely doable once you get the hang on how the homework assignments work.
I was planning to study BS in Health Science. Is it very hard to graduate? Only 13% Are the courses hard? Thank you
@@marcelavanegue5091 I’m doing it now. It’s not hard, just a lot of reading and assignments!
@Marcela Vanegue
The cheaper, the easier to get in the least committed to finish students.
At cheap/low cost/open admission schools you get a lot of "triers"
No it's not lol. It's a degree mill and you are a fake account.
@@marcelavanegue5091 dude it's literally a scam lol. Dig deeper. Their degrees are worthless.
They are working on regional accreditation. In the process, but it is a 5 year process. As a current student, pursuing a BA in business. Fantastic school. If you are a small business owner, which I am, FANTASTIC school.
who said that it ll take 5-year process?
@@anassaleh7713 waiting for a response from Patrick myself
Typically, the Accreditating agencies take that period of time to access said school UoP assessment started in 2021 so the agency visits and assesses over that 5 yr period before full Accreditation
Thank you for your explanation. Now I am sure I have to stop because I saw many things not ensuring me to continue.
You can email your advisor and answer you in 3 days while it's sth urgent. Some emails you get don't even match on your questions.
Or why they can't show your exam paper to see what you should answer where you should correct.
Maybe in 5 years It will worth that I study at that university but for now there are things they have to change or study on
Thank you for this video!!!!! I really really appreciate your work and your neutrality in your opinions
Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the video!!!!!
Thank you for the review
man, first off thank you for such great and high-effort content! really really helpful and golden advice! hope this channel gets millions of subscribers, you deserve it!!
of the online colleges that you know, especially those that seem to be very accepting of tranfer credits, which ones would accept a bachelors in U of the People, to get a masters there?
I cant really afford even the cheapest ones now, but i know in 2 years i will (will be working in Australia haha), so my plan was to get my Bachelor's in UoP and then get a regionally accredited Master's.
First of all, thanks so much for your kind words! 🥰 We definitely dream of having millions of subscribers one day 😉 Second, UoP isn’t as free as they sound because of the final exam fee per course. That alone (with the transfer credit eval fee, app fee, etc.) means the degree will cost at least $3,600. For about $5.5k you can get a regionally accredited degree that will qualify you for just about any graduate degree you want :) Not many grad programs will accept UoP as your undergrad degree because they are only nationally accredited :(
I worked at Dell and I am doing it. My bosses are very encouraging and I am doing the last mod of my MBA which is the capstone. Really good experience for the past 2 years but it's not easy. 60 USD is really cheap. I recommend people who love challenges should give it a try :) As a working adult, it is really hectic. BTW, they are now on probation for their regional accreditation.
Can you tell a little bit about the capstone project? It's the thing I "fear" the most. I've no clue how it goes
Congrats! @yoursrower
@pandaangry1267he's saying they are on candidate status which is good
They're on probation from what I'm understanding. I think that's why we've been seeing changes in the courses etc. @pandaangry1267
@pandaangry1267probation was not the right term. UofPeople is attempting to obtain regional accreditation through WASC. They have passed the initial review and are working through the required steps to receive full accreditation. They have 5 years to meet the requirements which is why the OP used the term “probation.”
I just enrolled at UoP, I'm doing a master's degree in Advanced English; for a lot of teachers working abroad, UoP offers an inexpensive way to get that master's degree requirement that most countries have. I'm excited to learn! Even if you didn't talk about their master's degree, I appreciate this review, since I didn't know what to expect.
I have checked the website and they have no masters degree in English language how where you able to enroll for such?
@@successphillips7583 My bad, it's Advanced Teaching, not Advanced English.
@@DisasterEXE Do you know if the program can be finished in less than a year, i.e. at your own pace, or it's a set program of 12 months?
@@drjtrekker Hi, as far as I know, you can finish it at your own pace. I believe the most you can take is 3 courses at a time, which would mean you can finish it in maybe a bit over a year, but that's full time; I wouldn't recommend this if you're employed. The program isn't set, you can choose to take 1, 2, or 3 courses. I'm doing 1 at a time so it will take me a bit over 2 years.
How is it so far?
Are you by chance planning to do a review of Grand Canyon University? I’m really on the fence about this one so would be very interested in your thoughts.
As a UoPeople graduate I can agree with what you are saying, there are definitely pros and cons for this degree. They do accept transfer credits from Sophia, Straighterline etc. I have transferred over 20+ credits and was able to finish my degree in a little less than 2 years. I could have completed it in less time if I had known about the transfer option prior. But I am still glad I did it in such a quick time.
@@missdesireindependance5194 thank you
If you don’t mind me asking, what sort of courses did you transfer and which degree program did you do? I’m currently doing their BSc Health Sciences.
@@lessonsfromthetrail4139 is there transcript letter graded or just pass or fail
You are a fake account defending a degree mill scam.
Can you tell me what the course work was like? Is it the typical "papers" like everyone says about online schools? What were the tests like? How long did it take you to finish?
University of the people accept lots of alternative credits (Sophia)that can transfer to regionally accredited colleges. This can reduce cost for many students who can’t afford college. Many students report success with transferring their degree according to Reddit forum.
The issue with UoP is that it is nationally accredited. Most ppl need RA based degree.
@@malcolmjelani3588 Employers accept nationally accredited degrees. States are even accepting them for teaching positions in higher education as well as grad school!
@@missdesireindependance5194 not where i work
Why dont you study online with perfectly accredited European online Universities? Some of our unis are super affordable. German unis are even free.
@rb3058
There's only one public Uni in Germany that is fully online - the Fernuni Hagen and there are no courses in English offered.. With other public FHs that offer online courses, you typically spend more money compared to a UoPeople degree it seems. But please correct me if I'm wrong.
I was just gonna ask you your thoughts on that!
28% graduation. It's meant for those who have no other choice. If you can go elsewhere, then do so. If you have no other place to go ... then UoPeople is for you.
Well said
This is the strangest school, there are no staff, no phone numbers and no one to help you with any concerns. It's bizarre.
New subscriber here 👋 I’m glad you reviewed UoPeople thank you 🙏🏻
I’m interested in applying for their Computer Science master’s in order to break into the STEM/ IT field. Any thoughts? Is the degree recognized by employers?
Thanks 🙏🏻
It's always going to vary by employer and by country. Generally, I find employers aren't super picky.
They do not have a masters program for CS
In a question and answer session with the president, he said that the limited program options are on purpose , so more people can get the high demand jobs
I’m glad you say that!
I’m interested in applying for their Computer Science master’s in order to break into the STEM/ IT field. Any thoughts? Thanks 🙏🏻
A clever way of saying, "We want to keep our overhead low." I don't hate it though.
Well, this is sort of late for me. I’m staring my last semester doing my capstone project for my MBA, and it has been fantastic. I don’t know why people wouldn’t want to get an MBA specially if cost it’s not a problem. I have a coworker that did her MBA at UMass and when chatting she barely knows what I talk about from what I am learning. 😂 and she probably paid 5x what I paid, and I make more money than she does, at the end of the day it’s all about the value one brings to the market in terms of effectiveness not names of schools. There’s a saying I really like that I think applies here, it’s not about where you start but where you end.
Well said! A lot of times the main beauty of college hacking is the ability to quickly and inexpensively put a degree behind what you can already do!
There are people who think that getting a degree from Harvard, Yale, Princeton, MIT, NYU, John Hopkins, etc. will make them stand out or get better-paying jobs than others. Maybe or maybe not. I did my Bachelor of Science in Liberal Arts at Excelsior University. I obtained about eighty college credits through equivalency examinations via CLEP, DSST, and Coopersmith Career Consulting which covered all four upper-level Psychology courses for my minor. Each upper-level psychology course only cost me 150 US for 3 credits. That is dirt cheap. If you know how to navigate online learning like me, you will not need a student loan debt to drag on for years, not to mention the frustration. I am about to write a book about online college degrees and how to graduate without any college debt
The U.S. Department of Education only recognizes Institutional and Programatic Accreditation. The Department of Education eliminated the distinction between National and Regional Accreditation in February 2020. Also, University of the People is pre-accredited through WASC, which is a former regional accrediting agency. A decision will be made about their accreditation status in February 2023. They are currently accredited by DEAC which is an Institutional Accreditor.
I think what's really keeping "regional accreditation" in vogue is that most grad schools require it in the undergrad degrees they accept. And then businesses follow suit. Most students are trying to make their bosses or grad schools happy, not the DoE. Just my thoughts.
Yes, some graduate schools do look for it but in my experience, not many employers (aside from teachers/educators). I know plenty of people that are employed at the highest levels with degrees from formally nationally accredited schools. I don’t believe that most businesses even know that there was a distinction between accreditors.
Hi! How you know that the decisions for the WASC are coming in February? I want to transfer my credits from UoPeople to a regional accredited university but I’ve been reading that it is quite difficult to do it from a national accredited university.
@College Hacked I believe you have forgotten... Not everyone wants a job! Is this a great school for small business owners? Absolutely. As a person looking to build his online business, it would make more sense for you to potentially review based not only through the employee lense, but how this university, or any university can be of benefit when owning/operating a small business.
@@nat-tb7cg 1) Because WASC's website volunteers when their next site visits are (I believe that the next one is now in March 2024), and 2) WGU now generally allows transfers of national credits; there may be other regionally accredited universities that do this.
The issue with the low graduation stems from the fact that most students are part-time, while graduation statistics account for four-year completion. Further, I've known students who were enrolled in specific CS courses because they already had a degree and wanted to refresh their knowledge. Still, these students did not intend to finish the degree because they were not fond of the idea of retaking all courses lol
Makes sense!
The second reason you listed likely explains why the "Certificates" programs exist, lmfao! :D
@@MateDrinker33 When I was studying at UoPeople, there were no certificates at the beginning of my studies; moreover, the certificates don't have all major CS courses.
Im already attending college. I joined for the certification courses. Is it any good for certification? Specifically Accounting.
I am currently working on my Masters of IT at UOPeople and I wanted to say thanks for this review. It really is spot-on. I think the reason why there are so few graduates is mainly that there are NO lectures and none of the traditional ways of learning offered by a physically attended university. Everything is online and the majority of the knowledge is shared in writing. So you have to be able to read (a lot). Likewise, there are a lot of writing intensive assignments. So reading and writing is a must. When I got my Bachelors at Sam Houston State University (Texas), I just attended college and took tests for the most part. It was easy. So, this is harder. This is my last term before my Capstone project and I hope to do well.
Such an awesome account of your experience, thank you for sharing this! I bet you’ll crush it 😎
What is a capstone project?
@@SeizrnUhie a capstone project is sort of the equivalent to a Masters Thesis. It is a semester devoted to a project. In my case an IT project where we have to create something useful that solves a problem. It is supposed to encompass all the courses you took in grad school.
I hope you're well.
I would like to ask if you can recommend any courses that can be equivalent to the following courses below from the University of the People:
1-Business Policy and Strategy 2- Quality Management
Unfortunately, I don't know off the top of my head, but we'd love to help you in a consultation: www.collegehacked.com.
Can y'all grade Southern University of Utah, their online General Studies online with is $75 per credit in & out state fee? Three years to graduate total of $9,000 and they're regionally accredited.
Not a horrible review for UofP. I always get kick out of how poorly national accreditation is looked upon. AP News recently had a story on the many students from [US] community colleges (which typically have regional accreditation) that couldn't transfer their credits into universities. It's all about the receiving school's policy regarding transfer credit. If you know where you want to go, find out what they will accept before you apply. National accreditation may be accepted as well as regional.
In Western Europe (Germany, Malta etc.) we have VERY AFFORDABLE online universities and Higher Education Institutes with REAL accreditation and the degress are valid in the whole EU and most likely the whole world. Why anyone studies at UoPeople?
If you're lucky, there might be an institution in Malta like OPIT - Open Institute of Technology that recognizes a Bachelor's degree from UoPeople and enrolls you into a MSc course. In Germany, I know that UoPeople degrees are generally not recognized. UoPeople does not formally exist in Germany, and the university does not have an anabin entry.
@@rb3058 - Would any of those work for a dirt poor American, who can only afford to spend maybe $100/month on their education?
I was choosing between purdue global and UMPI for business major. I am glad you brought up the factor of graduate admissions for UMPI as its regionally accredited. Do u think there will be acceptance for graduate programs for outside US such as Canada and Australia if I complete my bachelors from UMPI instead of pursue. Also would love ur review for pursue global or UMass global
UMPI is a State School! This is the University of Maine, which is a unified school system. It's the gold standard of accreditation. You will have no problems going to a graduate program. After my UMPI BA, I went and got an MA from UMPI, a MBA from another school, and I'm in my last two weeks of my Doctorate at another school!
@@nickisashkir how about uopeople sir ? I was apply for BSc in BA at uopeople
@@agungrahmadi6938 UoPeople is a national accredited school. It doesn't have the "gold standard" sticker, but, it is a great and affordable option to those that are interested in their degrees. There's a ton of hidden fees.
There is a REDDICT post with a list of all the universities that accept Uopeople credits to continue with a master's degree. I know one student who was accepted to MIT with a bachelor's degree from Uopeople. I can't seem to find the link for the post. Maybe you will have better luck than me. @@agungrahmadi6938
The idea is great but very few careers.
but this university offers MA so you going to say that if u wanted a phd they would not accept this masters?
I found your channel recently can you do a video on American Public University?
Will add it to my list, but I honestly don't like them. A little scammy.
@@CollegeHacked thank you for the information. Think I'm going to UMPI. Thanks to your channel.
Thank you for the video.
I have a little question please, I'm currently enrolled at UOP in their msit program (master), but are there other better cheap alternatives that are RA for people outside the us in the computer science or data science field or something close to it?
Not cheaper, no :)
@@CollegeHacked thank for the answer, because I don't know if you know it, but uop doesnt give scholarships to people in the master's track. they prefer to give it to people who don't have any previous degree
how about worldquant university?
How to apply for a full scholarship?
Could you make a Video about Penn State World Campus?
So in US national accreditation is garbage for employers even if the university non for profit? They won't consider candidate with such a degree (I am MBA student at UoP), will they?
Many employers don't know the difference. The real danger with a nationally accredited undergrad is that some graduate programs won't accept you.
Is UoP regionally accredited now? I heard they are by WSCUC, but I am not sure.
No, they are a candidate with them
I actually went here & the prices are really good. And it's actually hackable. I hacked my UoPeople degree &'it's easy to hack with any pf the five (Clep, DSST, StraighterLine, Sophia, Study, Saylor & any other credit transfer program). The credits can transfer in easily as electives.
The only knock I would give is lack of majors.
Did you transfer yet or are you staying with University of the people?
@@missdesireindependance5194 after I completed my degree, I transferred to Eastern University to continue my MBA journey.
Can you guide me how to hack lol
The thing that makes UOP great besides cost is also the thing that is killing them with the number of drop outs. That is: Other students. UOP accepts anyone which leads room for competency issues when peer grading.
Good point!
I'm getting close to graduating with a Master's in Education at UoPeople. I would say it is very affordable and quality-wise it is a good choice. Peer-reviewed part is about 50-55% of the overall grade. Reflections and group project is checked by the instructor. Most instructors look at what has been given to you by other peers. I had many instances when my grades given by peers were adjusted by my instructor (for a better grade). Tasks are interesting and make you really think and connect the theory they give with your personal experience. It is extremely hard to cheat or copy-paste from somewhere - the policy for plagiarism is VERY VERY VERY strict. If you are not ready to write 2-3 papers a week, reconsider your enrollment to UoPeople. Overall, I should say I enjoy learning with them. I feel like my views on education evolve and I get interested in those narrow questions related to education which makes me a better teacher. I am also a much better writer. Hope this adds well to the information presented in the video.
Have you had trouble finding a job as a teacher after university of the people? And what did you get your bachelor's in? And does it help you specialize or have a concentration as a certain teacher like could I study to be a english teacher or history teacher?
Is your bachelor regionally accredited? How will you navigate getting a teacher certification? Only Alabama, Florida and Arizona accept deac accredited degrees for teaching.
So much paper work yet I’m still broke with no paper
I had a terrible experience with UoP and actually hate it. The peer assessments reminded me of high school group projects, which I shouldn't have to do if I'm paying for the class. The only positive things were the price and the fact that it was completely online. Unfortunately, my employer doesn't offer tuition reimbursement for this university. I need an accredited college that allows me to work at my own pace and location. It feels like I wasted my money, and my advisor was unhelpful. Why do I, as the student, have to assess other students when the professor should be doing it? The coursework was easy, but the other students were too slow for me. I believe that if they eliminated peer assessments and discussion boards and made it a work-at-your-own-pace university, the graduation rate would be much higher, possibly up to 90%.
Thanks for sharing your experience, very informational. Sorry that you came out of UoP feeling it wasn’t worth it. If you haven’t already checked out Purdue Global, UMPI, and Western Governors University, they are great at-your-own-pace schools :)
Thanks so much@@CollegeHacked
THank You and they are VERY misleading about the Assessment of the Foundation Courses that they never told me about.
You sound like a lazy student and very bitter by that. There is something we learned at UoPeople: Fixed Mindset vs Growth Mindset. Learn to take on challenges and adapt. It helps even outside college into your career. Not everything will always go your way in your career. Majority of UoPeople students have good review about the school.
Personally, I did not like that peer assesment from the start. I didn't undertand why I should do it. Then I soon I realized it is a big part of UoPeople style of learning. If I didn't adapt to it, I would have struggled through the rest of the program. Then again I asked myself, why did they have it in the first place.
I started engaging positively with peer assesment and I realized that I was learning things from the perspective of others adding to what I have learned. Engaging in responses also helped me solidify what I have learned into my memory. Soon enough I was the one posting promptly and responding at all the engagements I was getting.
Finally it catered a big part in contributing to my grades.
@sekhangati B_tch I have a PhD now... HOW?
I want to teach english abroad in Vietnam, if I get BA through the U of the P, will it be recognized? I have emailed the Vietnamese work permit people to see but still waiting for an answer.
I’m interested in teaching in Vietnam also . Have you found out if it is recognized or not?
I’m from Vietnam and actually also an ESL teacher. You’ll be fine. Vietnamese companies just need to know that you have a degree. They would not know the difference between nationally and regionally accredited schools. You will need a CELTA or TEFL certificate to get a teaching job as well.
Can you do Grand Canyon University
Yes! I will do that!
So can the programs be finished in less than a year? Specifically the Master's programs?
Depends on the student, but I suspect you could at UotP
I'm going to start studying for AS Computer science at UoP. I want to move to Europe so I wonder if it is recognized in Europe.
No, it’s not.
They accept it in the USA and some Caribbean countries.
So, @CollegeHacked, I'm looking to break into the IT field. I'm going into this whole thing blind, as I only have my GED. Where/how would you recommend I start? Is there any way you could kindly point me in the right direction? Thank you. ❤❤
Welcome to the hacking family! 😄 In the description of each of our videos is our free mini-series that gives you the whole rundown on how to do this!
I finally graduate this month 🎉🎉🎉🎉
CONGRATS!!! 🥳🥳 Would love to hear more!
Congratulations!!! 🎉🎉❤❤❤
May I ask which field/degree?
Hello, has is changed your life? Were you able to get a better job or promotion yet?
Thanks it was BSc Computer Science and evaluated here as a foreign Qualification@@RobynSparkes
@@jonasrichfieldyes I did make a career change got a new job
Sir I have a question ...
Are university in the us or canada can accept bachelor degree from uopeople??
It's really situational and depends on the school.
11:14 You meant to say they're only nationally accredited.
how does it work? how much do you pay monthly? and how many courses you take per semester? thank you
You pay per final exam ($120), not monthly or by credit hour. The amount of classes you take is up to you!
Can you please also review penn foster/ashworth college
There are better options!
After my Bs in health and science I want to apply in a medical school. I can’t find any text or forums about it.. is it possible with the right gpa, MCAT score and prerequisites to enroll into a medical school. With a BS from UoPeople?
It’s up to each medical school to decide if they would accept a nationally accredited degree, but most if not all are going to require a regionally accredited bachelor’s degree. So it’s not a very safe option!
If I graduate with a bachelor degree from UoPeople. Will I be able to continue for my master degree at another online university ?
You would qualify for some graduate programs, but it’s always safer to pursue a regionally accredited program if you want to secure more grad school options 🎓
I transferred in so many coarses from Sophia.... And a half off scholarship. So I only pay $60 per coarse. My friends here in Cambodia all get totally free scholarships, it just depends on how fast you apply
Course*
Update: They are now a Sophia partner. You can see every class that will transfer.
Great news!
Where I can see the transferable classes?
I would like to say this school is terrible, I sent my transcript then they replied with with "you need official or notarized official transcript" but when I went to University of North Texas website, to send my "notarized official" transcript they want to send it to a physical location because it is an Official transcript and can not be opened. I tried contacting their only source of communication and the chatbot redirects you from transfer credit to "about the college" and I would not recomend anyone to waste their money at this scam.
I have 18 units of MBA coursework I did with an RA university while earning my first master's degree I can transfer in all these units to UoP and be done with it in less than a year Regarding accreditation Some RA colleges and universities will accept units from DEAC schools some will not If this is an issue then research which RA school will accept them and how many
This is a viable strategy for some, but in general it’s going to be better to avoid the hoopla of trying to find a school who will accept and respect a UoP degree. Many employers also don’t consider non-RA degrees to be “real.” If it works for someone’s situation though and they feel comfortable, we are all for it!
I wish I would have seen this before I enrolled. My student experience has been terrible. From a complete lack of guidance from the teacher to a chatbot that kept telling my dob and email were not correct when they were trying to authenticate that it was me. They keep sending email reminders to pay for my assessment that is 3 weeks out, i get a email every couple of days. I already dropped one course and will not continue. I DO NOT RECOMMEND
You did not solve the issues, its the best school and i am currently a student. I email my instructors as well as my course adviser and i get replies almost immediately. Many students cant keep up.
You seem to have experienced some bad luck. I currently have 99 credits and 6 months away from graduating. Advisors are amazing and teachers are very supportive.
Best of luck!
@Carol MCs is their Master’s in Computer Science recognized by employers in the US (New York)?
Thanks 🙏🏻
Yeah, I'd probably avoid too. UMPI is a great back up.
i have had the best experience with the school, I'm 1 course away from completing my first year in computer science. i'm sorry you havent had the best experience. all i can say is they dont offer the traditional way of learning where there is a lecturer in the class always ready to attend to questions, instead we tend to solve our own problems with the help of a lot of research and guidance from our peers. i Have never felt the need to contact my course instructor even in the toughest days at school I always find solutions on my own. there is nothing we can not get from the internet this days. i would say they do not spoon feed students over there, that can be challenging for some people, i know it was for me at first but now can literally learn by reading a book without any guidance.
From this video it seems that Uopeople does not offer any competency-based programs. Did I get this correctly?
Students who enroll in UoPeople can expect to earn their associate’s, bachelor’s or master’s degree at their own pace and in their own time!
Hi, please how can I get in contact with you
Just send me an email at clifford@collegehacked.com.
Hi, will I be able to study a master degree in Offline university in the US after the bachelor degree from UOP?
Thank you
It is unlikely, as UOP is not regionally accredited
Some universities accept uopeople credits. Many UoPeople former students started a REDICT page with the list of universities that accepted their uopeople degrees. There are a few local universities and international universities.
i have a AS-T in business can i transfer all my credits for bachelors
It always depends on the school you're transferring to. They get the final say. I usually recommend people transfer to and apply to a few different schools and see what they get.
Professors aren't paid and the application process to teach is difficult.
How are computer science courses conducted at Uopeople University?
Excellent question 👍🏻
I’m interested in applying for their Computer Science master’s in order to break into the STEM/ IT field.
Great question! Hopefully someone else who knows answers.
@@CollegeHacked Actually, im in the university. Im in the course ENGLISH ESL2 and i learn in the moodle directly in the website and the courses are directly on the website each week
Hello, how long does it take to get a bachelors degree?
That depends on how many classes you take at once.
UoPeople certificate is national or international?
Not sure, but their bachelor's degree is nationally accredited.
Anyone know a good university for construction management
WGU! :)
Hi if I took a couple classes in uopeople but decided not to continue because of the accreditation. I still need to send my transcripts if I am applying to a different accredited US university?
The schools you apply to will still ask for any prior transcripts (this is a legal requirement from the Department of Education) but if the school you’re applying to is regionally accredited they won’t accept any transfer credit anyway. So it feels annoying, but yes they’ll still want to know 😋
@@CollegeHacked thank you for your reply. Do you think it would affect me too bad if I have a 2.10 GPA in uopeople but in accredited big school like the university of Alabama I got a 4.0 GPA. I really want to get admitted in the university of Utah but I am scared of applying because of it
@@CollegeHacked would it be better to retake that courses in uopeople and raised my GPA before?
@@CollegeHacked I got a 2.10 just because I didn’t take my final exam in statistics but the rest of it was all straight A’s
@@arondarojas5971 It depends on a few things. Usually grad schools will look at your most recent GPA.
"I am from Brazil. It seems that WGU is not very international student friendly. However, UoPeople doesn't impose the pressure of completing the program within 6 months
UoP is not regionally accredited, so be careful going there if you want to do a masters in the US after!
Hey! Please tell me should I do BS Computer Science from SNHU or UOPeople as an international student? Thanks in advance..
SNHU or TESU :) UOP is only nationally accredited, not regionally. It may not matter depending on where you are and what you want to use it for though, and UOP is definitely least expensive.
@@CollegeHacked so SNHU or TESU?
Which one would you recommend for Bs CS?
I’m looking into the BS in Health science to pursue a graduate degree in psychology. Will the credits transfer to a state university easily? I work full time as a caregiver currently.
No! Do not go to UoP if you want to go to grad school, their degrees are not regionally accredited. Maybe it won’t matter at some point in the future, but presently that still does matter.
Why would I want to join this college if I can’t graduate ???
You can graduate. But if you're in the US the accreditation isn't yet very good. They're working on it though.
Is the Uop now regionally accredited?
No 👎🏼
Can I do the masters program from UotP with no bachelors?
No
Could you make a review about UMASS global? I want to earn a degree and i am think about UMPI or UMASS global, but there is not much info out there.
UMPI and UMass Global uses the same classes for most of their degrees. The big difference is the professors. It's a whitelabeled version of Strut Learning with some alterations.
Why such a low graduation rate?
When something's free, people don't always commit.
Students are unlikely to stay motivated to completion.
Do you give consultation to international students?
We do indeed! :)
@@CollegeHacked how? Could you please elaborate on that or provide an email address? Thanks
@@NYCStateofMind7 Sure thing! You can sign up here: www.collegehacked.com. Or you can email me at clifford@collegehacked.com to learn more. :)
So, they say their bachelor's are 4 years long, can you hack them? Is it possible to do them in one year?
Indeed :) www.uopeople.edu/become-student/admissions/transferring-credits/
@@CollegeHacked Thanks for the fast reply
@@CollegeHacked My dream has always been to move to US and getting a fast, not expensive, online degree there seem my only option to get a H-1B visa, so ty so much for the help!
@@sigma_philosophy Agree about WGU and UoP! UMPI does have the "Liberal Studies - Management Information Systems" major, which would touch IT and then allow you to fill the rest of the degree with hand picked classes in IT topics you wanted to learn about :) Or, Purdue Global has an ExcelTrack option in IT prebuilt :]
Hi, how about now, have they been regionally accredited?
Thank you.
Still not regionally accredited. Also, paying for the final exam in each class adds up to more than a degree from UMPI.
@@CollegeHacked I’m actually looking for an affordable MSC in Supply chain or Business Administration
@@CollegeHacked thank you for your response
@@Airbeeneezer If you are in the United States, Western Governors University :) If you're living outside the US, Purdue Global has an ExcelTrack MBA!
@@CollegeHacked thank you and God bless you.
Hi, in the video you said I there was only one university that is better than uopeople, what is it?
Time stamp? I can’t find where I said it
Local authority fully recognised her bsc in computer science
Where is local for you, and who is “her”? :)
This university is not suitable for working professionals and its very difficult to score marks.
Then are no proper books and notes.
name sounds odd, luckily i passed on it.
Randol fyi: clep costs 93 as of today
We currently have ModernStatesDotOrg to deal with that.
@@MateDrinker33 praise God
I'll give them a D on the credit transferability, they gave me 36 transfer out of 96 college credits.... It's like pulling teeth trying to negotiate with them.
No school in the universe will allow you to transfer 96 credits. You need 120 to graduate. You need to study at least 50% at a particular school to obtain their degree after transferring.
TESU will let you pay a fee and bring in more than 90 credits :) Never say never.
You can only transfer 75%
What is the cheapest college?
Idk, I think U of People is cheapest right now. Open University in the UK is a close second. Excelsior College is also an option but only if you transfer 90 credits.
Community colleges.
UMPI I think.
@@CollegeHacked byupathway is cheap
If it's not accredited by one of the big 6, it's garbage in the U.S. In the U.S., federal and national accreditation means very little. It's all about the states and regional accreditation is overwhelmingly more important. I will consider them when they get regionally accredited.
Might not be long. They are working on it.
I suspect UoPeople will have a flood of applications the second they get their regional accreditation.
@@CollegeHacked Do you think American College of Education grad school will accept a Master's Degree from UoPeople? I haven't called yet.
I hate the peer assessment!
University of the People has a lot of hidden fees, and a lot of instances where you pay for an exam first, then they reimburse you. Not really viable for some poorer countries.
UofPeople doesn't really accept credits very well. DegreeForum is full of people who tried with Sophia / Study with UofPeople
However, NationsU does have free tuition for people not in the top 35 richest countries for a Bachelor of Religious Studies.
I have never paid for an exam or course and had to be reimbursed, I only have two classes left till graduation.
@@mccrayali is this regionally accredited in the US?
@@emtionaldamage112 they are being reviewed now and should have an answer by end of July 2023
@@mccrayaliso did they get it?
@@myhb1219 To the best of my knowledge WASC denied the UoP until another visit which will place regional accreditation possibly in 2024
UoP sucks, simply sucks...
Well, you can get accepted by a regionally accredited university for master's, which is NYU, they are collaborating with UoPeople. also I have two friends getting rewarded a scholarship to study master's degree in Germany and UK. Personally it was a great option because I wanted to become a commissioned officer at the US Air Force and that made it possible and if I wanted to get a regionally accredited master's degree in the future I would choose the NYU hack.
Awesome! For some it does work 😄
This University does not have any point of contact, do not apply because there are no staff, no employees, no one to help you in any way ruins, concerns or otherwise. Furthermore, all names are Indian (east indian) and that's enough for me to pass on it and I'll be happy to pay tuition for a scholarship who actually have staff and faculty to answer student questions and concerns.
It is a tuition-free university, after all 😉
Why would you lie online that no stuff, no employees etc.
I have never raised any concern and it was an unattended to, I guess some of you are naturally lazy to write up emails to your advisors, instructors and the students services etc.
I email my advisor every week and he responds, actually sometimes even his supervisor responds to me.
Additionally this is my last year and I haven't had any issues with anything or anyone.
