Capella University

I can’t say enough about the flex path. I 100% thought it was too good to be true but I started my BSN 3/6 and finished 5/19/23. I had a referral scholarship that got tuition down to a little under 2700 for the 12 week cycle and I straight up busted my behind to get every class done before they billed me again. I am recommending this program to everyone I know and I can’t believe this huge weight is lifted off my shoulders. Professors were great!! And the directions are clearly defined on each assignment,... Read More I believe there was a total of 31, including the capstone which was the most lengthy. I saved thousands and the self-teaching module actually helped me learn better than a traditional school.

I have had such a great experience with Capella. I just completed the BSN AMP Flexpath program and am starting my MSN in Leadership and Admin in July. The enrollment counselors and coaches have been so great, and every one genuinely wants you to succeed. I work full time and have a part time job, as well as three boys and a husband. It is completely do-able. I will say you get out what you put into this program, and you have to be disciplined to be successful. I am so grateful and proud to have Capella... Read More University as my Alma mater.

I graduated in November 2021 with my AAS in Nursing. I started Capella in January of 2022 in the BSN program. I finished May of 2022. I decided to get my MSN. I started it in July 2022. I just completed my Capstone on May 7, 2023. I have had a lot going on in my life and some stumbling blocks come about. I'm am proud of myself as a single parent of 2 working full-time and being able to complete my MSN in Leadership and Administration Program. I look forward to the road that lies ahead. I wish anyone... Read More the best and if you are doing Capella, like in Nursing school find you a buddy to keep each other motivated to finish. I have had the same one throughout and she finished first in the BSN program, but now I have finished the MSN first. I continue to be her biggest cheerleader!! There is nothing like success and time and patients is the key.

I’d like to start by saying to those that reviewed the school with 5 stars and feel that those of us that are giving it a lower rating just aren’t working hard enough at it, you are dead wrong! I have two associates degrees. I graduated with honors both times. I have been a practicing RN for many years and decided I wanted to finally pursue my Bachelor’s degree. I enrolled with Capella in the flexpath program because I thought this would be a great option for a busy adult learner. I should have dropped... Read More the first week when I realized there is no actual teaching or learning going on here. I didn’t and muddled my way through the first class and had a 99 average (again it’s not for a lack of effort or intelligence that I am struggling). I get to the second class and more of the same. There is no direction and you are left to guess what they are looking for. I sent an email to the professor looking for guidance on the first assignment. It was a very basic question that was just ignored. The second assignment when I was unsure of what the requirement was I didn’t bother to submit another email. I submitted and hoped for the best. My grades on those two assignments were an 88 and an 80. The comments in the assignment about where points were deducted were vague at best and did not offer instruction on how to correct them. Now I’m on to assignment three and I am so overcome with a feeling of frustration and I’m overwhelmed that I reach out to my advisor who tells me “this program is for people who already know the information and just need to show it”. There is no education provided at this school. I will finish out this class and then I will not be re-enrolling after this. I will find a better University, one with actual teaching. This was a very expensive lesson learned.

I wanted in 2017 to get my BSN degree However, the professor was not forthcoming with what had to be done in the class, neither did she tell me when the writings were due nor on what day . While I worked hard to get good grades in the class, this professor developed a dislike for me and even though I only got one low grade. 70 percent on one of the tests, she gave me a 56% and this did not allow me to continue on. So when one of the reviewers stated that they want you to keep paying, I believe that... Read More her assessment was right. I found the professors to be unapproachable. Being that I was beginning my class after the New Year, I could not get anyone to answer my questions, about when and what time should I get online to begin the class. It took me 1 week after the new year so I was already behind. So glad I left. Now I have my BSN, Not from Capella and I graduated cum laude.

I signed up with Capella at the beginning of 2020 for one class just as I lost my job to Covid. Got ahold of the advisor and she said I would be able to drop the class with no strings attached because of the change in circumstance and since I didn't actually do anything in the class yet. Took a bit to get in touch with the person who can cancel classes, but he said he didn't know how finances worked and that if she said it it was probably true. A couple of months later I get a bill for $1600. I send... Read More out 30+ emails and get one response telling me to send an explanation to an email address I had sent 15+ emails to with no response. phone calls go nowhere because they tell me to email this dead email address. Now I got a phone call from a collection agency saying I owe even more. This school might give out legit degrees, but making sure there is no way to back out isn't legit in the slightest. Definitely felt like I got scammed. Now even the collection agency is telling me to email this dead email. Don't waste your money going here.
