To begin with, I would like to tell those who gave the school five stars and who believe that those who gave it four or three stars aren't trying hard enough that they're mistaken. I have earned two two-year degrees. I was the valedictorian both times I graduated. I've been a registered nurse for many years, but I've always wanted to return to school and earn a bachelor's degree. Since I am a busy working professional, I determined that the flex path program at Capella was my best option. I should have left after the first week, when it was evident that nothing of value was being taught. This was not due to a lack of effort or intelligence on my part, as I achieved a 99th percentile ranking in the first class. The second class I attended was identical to the first. You don't know where to go or what they want, and they provide no hints. I sent an email to my professor requesting advice on how to approach the first assignment. A straightforward inquiry was completely disregarded. When I did not comprehend the instructions for the second assignment, I did not send another email. Having submitted my application, I hoped for the best. I received 98 and 80 on these two papers. The assignment comments were at best ambiguous and offered no direction on how to improve the work. As I reach out to my advisor for assistance with assignment three, he informs me that "this program is for people who already possess the knowledge and simply need to demonstrate it." This institution is in no way conducive to learning. I plan to complete this course, but I will not be returning for the following semester. I plan to transfer to a school where I can actually acquire knowledge. This was an expensive education.

Have you heard of this flexpath program? Let me know how you find it. Thank you!

Hello Garcia. Capella offers a good program where you can earn your degree in 12 weeks (one billing cycle). I don't know how I can reach out to you, but I have a lot to share including but not limited to the best instructors for each course.

I'm starting my RN-BSN-AMP at Capella this fall/Winter and would love to get your beta on the program!
