Colorado Technical University – Denver

This school is the reason so many people are defaulting on their government loans. First and foremost, there is no real challenge in getting accepted into any program. All you need is a high school diploma and of course money. The level of education provided is actually easier than my high school classes. I submitted my assignments without ever opening a book or attending the live chat sessions. I received nothing less than a B as a grade.
They really want nothing more than your money. Take a look and see how much of it they want, it is appalling once you see the level of education you are paying for. My wife really wanted me to get a degree but this is a farce. Not one employer is going to take your degree seriously. The only serious thing about this school is the massive amount of debt you will be facing once you graduate and are still employed in the same job you are currently working.
I could have faked my way into a degree and never opened a book. The price tag is too high both ethically and financially for me to continue in this masquerade. Do yourself a favor and enroll in a real school and do real work. It may actually pay off. I have no doubt the degree I would have earned from CTU would be worth as much as a self made home printed version. Only difference being the extremely high cost of the loan.
Please stay away.

Colorado Technical University is a big time rip off! Don’t enroll in this incompetent school. The instructors for Visual Communications are horrible. The advisers keep adding course to your program when you are almost done lying to you that you need «1 more credit». They keep sucking money out of you and you’ll be enrolled in this program forever! I know so many students who went through this terrible ordeal. So many former students I know have been ripped off or transferred to other schools. CTU is not there to help you learn and graduate — instead, it’s a greedy entity like Wall Street crooks!

The professors for the most part in my experience are very helpful and want the student to succeed. Like any school there are positives and negative. This is a great fit for working adults and I am glad that even though I am perusing my education later in life, I have found a place to facilitate my goal.

This online university is apparently very aggressive about fishing for people to enroll in their «courses.» They called me several times, asking to speak with someone who hasn’t lived at my house for 9 years, claiming that that person indicated that he/​she wants to be called for more information. I tried to get the Colorado Technical University/​CTU people to take me off their phone list, but they refused. I intend to report them to the Colorado Better Business Bureau. These strong-​arm tactics are extremely unseemly for an institute of higher education.
