AIU
is, for lack of a better word, great.
When
I, first, ventured into acquiring my PhD with AIU, I figured it couldn’t be all
that it is propped up to be, what with flexibility and all. I was, however,
constantly wowed.
From
the start, it was smooth sailing. My academic documents and work experience was
reviewed, and I was given a course that I had been almost assured I wouldn’t
get, a course which I have always looked forward to studying, development
economics. Being assigned Mr. Arturo as my academic tutor was the icing on top
of the cake. He has been very helpful along this journey from the very start.
The
learning process was brilliant; the lecturers, outstanding and I was able to
juggle my studies and work with neither suffering. The student services have,
also, been helpful with their regular updates on ongoing activities in school.
The financial department has, also, been really helpful. I was given a partial
scholarship and although I defaulted in my payments, my scholarship was still
ongoing. Even when I made a double payment on my fees, the surplus was returned
to me in a very timely manner.
Really,
AIU has been a really great experience, and with people like Arturo, Marcel,
Nadia, amongst others, as part of the team, I would be surprised if it isn’t. Although
I opted for the distance learning, I felt like I was physically present in the
school and an active member of the team. This is definitely a school I would
recommend to others.
