Full Sail University

I am halfway through my degree in the Entertainment Business Sports Management Master's Program Online. I love it. Growing up, I always had a passion for sports and technology. It was always a dream of mine to attend Full Sail but it was too expensive... Read More at the time. Now that I am older and have a steady job, I am able to pay for it. One thing I LOVE about FSU is the accelerated programs. I have always wanted to get my Master's degree but I hesitated because I didn't want to go back to school for two years. Instead, I lowered the intensity of things going on in my life for one year and dedicated myself to getting this masters, and I don't have any regrets. With all due respect to the other reviews I have read here, many of the complaints are from personal experience. I quite enjoy the online classes I take and with a full time job the schedule fits perfectly for me. I don't think it is healthy nor productive to rely heavily on an instructor to pass or fail a class. I have found that if I just work hard and ask my professor for help as a last resort, I will be just fine. Also, anybody with a basic understanding of economics and money management should know the financial risk you are taking when enrolling at Full Sail. They do not hide how expensive it is to attend, and I think everybody who enrolls know the debt they are creating for themselves when they decide to go here. If I wanted to go to a different University to save money I would have, but I knew the programs and advantages that Full Sail offers and I have not been disappointed in the slightest. I have attended 3 different Universities and the instructional experience that I have had at Full Sail is second to none. The detailed videos each week are more than reasonable and give me everything I need to complete the assignments for the week. The only complaint I would have for FSU is the lack of job opportunities for online students who don't necessarily live in the Winter Park area. I would love to work in the Sports Entertainment field as I work on my Masters degree, but I haven't had much success in finding one through Full Sail. However, I put more of the blame on me than Full Sail, as this was something I discussed with my Guidance Counselor before I enrolled so I knew what I was getting into.

I was an online student receiving a Master's degree. My instructors were very available and open to communicate if needed. The coursework was always clearly laid out as well as the expectations. I have a busy family, and this degree allowed me the opportunity... Read More to have an extreme amount of flexibility in order to make life work around my coursework. I did well and realized that I did better when I put forth great effort to stay connected with my instructors. I met my assignment deadlines and asked questions when I needed additional information. Some of the instructors went above and beyond in various ways. I believe the effort I put in coupled with the support of the staff helped me have an amazing experience. I believe that any student who is willing to put in the effort to get the work done will have a great experience. If you're looking to do the minimum, not stay connected to your instructors, and not complete the weekly assignments by the deadline, you will not enjoy the experience. My personal experience overall was amazing! I'd definitely recommend to others who need a great amount of flexibility.

Attending Full Sail University changed my career path for the better. The methodologies and techniques I acquired as a Graduate student helped solidify my views on Leadership, Organizational Development and Adult Learning. And the practical application...
