From what I have heard, they are a "degree mill" where whoever can pay will get a diploma. No guarantees on quality of education or assistance. What is the price per credit?

Also, because I am currently unemployed, I have been looking for work on major sites and many of the job postings specifically say "U of Phx grads need not apply"!!! Do some serious research before she enrolls....there are some legitimate Universities that offer online courses, where you get a real degree.

ETA, I did a quick search on www.ripoffreport.com and there are close to 500 entries, most of them bad--the biggest concern being
if she enrolls and things don't work out she will owe huge amounts of money.
