I truly enjoy this school program. It has given me the opportunity to not only continue my education but to do so while remaining in Great Falls. I would have had to move out of town if I did not choose to attend Park University. I really love the one on one help that I receive no matter if it is an on site class or on line class. The courses are challenging and making me learn the information to succeed in today's accounting and business fields. It has also allowed for me to spend a lot of quality time with my family and still work on my courses around this time. I would not want to go anywhere else!
I enjoyed going to Park University online. I did my entire degree online and I feel very prepared to enter the career field. I only actually had a problem with 1 instructor but other than that had a great experience. Also all the counselors were very helpful. The park online website for your classes was very easy to follow. Instructors generally answered my questions within 2 to 3 days. Also being in the military the instructors were very helpful and understanding on both my deployments to Iraq. I would definetly recommend Park University to people looking for this degree.
I chose this school because #1 - Flexibility, #2 - Cost, #3 - Transferability of credits. I say flexibility because my job as a manager required me to essentially be on the clock 24/7…taking online courses gave me an opportunity to obtain my degree…10 years later. The cost of classes is very competitive, and was a driving force to enable me to go back to school. Transferability of credit: Over the course of the previous 10 years, I had tried three times to complete my BS…but night school and my job killed that dream. Park accepted all of my classes from these other Universities.
My previous employer (a Govt. agency) was ready to promote me to a HQ level job after graduation, but I instead, accepted a job with the Army in a new career field. Those who think an online degree limits your ability to find a good job, think again.
Also, I know for a fact that the level of knowledge I obtained from my professors and their professionalism help me every single day in my current job field. To be honest, some of the things I studied, I never imagined would be pertinent to my current job. However these small details, handed to me as knowledge, are used daily. I will seek my Masters from Park AND I proudly display my alumni sticker on my vehicle!
The courses were challenging and worthwhile. As a Soldier I had the opportunity to attend a number of colleges while completing my degree. Once I started at Park it felt like I was attending college for the first time. The Professors are engaged during the discussions and my Student Advisor was more than helpful with any issues I had.

I am an Air Force veteran and it took me some time to complete through distance learning, but I consider this program a great learning experience! I also believe that I am ready for a career in Information Technology and positions of Chief Technology Officer or Director. Thank you Park University!
