I earned my bachelor of science degree with Ashworth College. I had a wonderful experience. I was challenged every step of the way and learned a lot. I enjoyed my learning experience so much that I enrolled into the Ashworth MBA program. I am excited to continue my educational process with Ashworth. The support was great and the price was right for an accredited college degree. Proud to be an Ashworth graduate!

Ashworth College is a truly unique place. They are the pioneer in online education. Considering multiple programs and can't decide between accounting and bookkeeping certifications right now. I honestly am impressed with their offerings, no other school out there offers such a wide variety of programs.

I just started at Ashworth a few weeks ago, around the beginning of December. I have two associates, but I needed one in HR. I'm already in a BA program at another school for HR management and wanted to get an associates in Human Resources. I'll start with the negative because I mostly have positive. The only negative experience I had was with my transcripts being reviewed by the registrar, and my credits being transferred over. I was constantly calling, emailing and spending my money to reorder them even after I got confirmation that they were received several times. I even noticed that I was given credit for one very old class that I got a C in, but several classes that I got an A in at the University I am attending was not transferred so l had to make several calls to get that corrected. The positive is I completed my first class literally in about two days. You study at your own pace. There are typically 8 exams for each course which is multiple choice and about 20 questions each, and it's usually open book. The online or physical books are included with your tuition payment. The tuition averages about $1,000 a semester, and a semesters worth of classes amounts to five courses. You really can't beat that. I started taking another course that I had taken before while waiting for my credits to transfer, and I found that I had a deeper understanding of the course after reviewing it the way Ashworth laid it out. They break everything down so that the average Joe can understand it. I didn't need that course after Ashworth gave me credit for it, but I still learned something new from it because of how it was broken down for me. I think this is one of the few online colleges that makes school seem almost as easy as being face to face with your instructor. The demographic I would recommend would be students who want a degree in the least amount of time but need to learn at their own pace and don't want to accumulate a lot of student loan debt. This would include adult learners who work full time with a family, or who have been on a job working in a specific field for a long period of time and want that degree pretty quickly for a promotion. It would also benefit the newly graduated High School student who couldn't catch on as quickly in High school; maybe needed extra help and would like to learn at a slower pace without the pressure of time constraints within a term or semester. They even offer payment plans as low as $49 a month if you can't afford to pay the full tuition. Since the school doesn't use student loans; there is no debt after graduation. It's a win/win situation.

I was enrolled in the bachelors program for business administration. I decided to take some time off. I am ready to go back to school but I would like to switch my major. I was told I can only switch if I take another bachelors program. I only did 1 semester. I have never heard of a school telling me I HAVE TO take the bachelors or I cant re enroll. The student service center was completely rude and was yelling at me on the phone. She wouldn't take the time to listen to the situation. They completely made my decision of going back to school a frustrating situation I definitely will not give them a second thought again! I could understand their "policy" if I was trying to enroll in the associates of business administration, but the field I wanted to enter was a completely different field from what I was doing previous

I am currently enrolled at Ashworth College with a full time job. After many attempts to earn a degree from a standard campus college, I decided to give online college a chance. I was pleasantly that I could start at anytime and be able to work at my own pace. I'm currently halfway to my degree in Business Administration.

My wife and I were looking to completely remodel the exterior of our home in Kettering. We met with several contractors and after meeting with the folks at Wayne Overhead Door we immediately knew they were the right company for our project. They helped us to find the highest quality products available that fit within our budget. We replaced the roof, siding, gutters, gutter guards, and all exterior doors including the garage door. We were a bit overwhelmed with the size of the project but thanks to the project manager we were able to continue our daily routine with little to no interruption. Every stage was executed on time and they exceeded all of our expectations. I highly recommend Wayne Overhead Door Sales & Home Improvement to anyone looking to renew their home. This is now the company we call on for all of our remodeling needs. Thank you guys for your excellent work!

My house has, at the time of this review, gutter damage along one entire side. I requested that Wayne Overhead Doors come out and provide a quote for the repair/replacement. [redacted] (sales consultant) came out on Monday, May 12, 2014 and provided a fair and courteous quote. He instructed me to contact their office to pay 50% of the quote, and schedule a date and time for the installation to be performed. I called about an hour after [redacted] (sales consultant) left, and spoke with [redacted] (receptionist). I explained to her that [redacted] (sales consultant) had provided me with a quote earlier that day and that I would like to pay the down payment and schedule the installation. She said that because [redacted] (sales consultant) hadn't been back to the office yet, she didn't have a copy of the work to be performed on hand and couldn't process my payment at that time. I said that I understand, and requested that she record my credit card information so that she may process the payment for me when she receives the estimate information from [redacted] (sales consultant). She agreed, and said that she would call me back after she had received the estimate information from [redacted] (sales consultant) and processed the payment. She called me back later that same day, and said that she processed my payment and we scheduled my installation appointment for Friday, May 16, 2014 and said the installer would arrive around "9 or 10 am" weather permitting.

Friday, May 16, 2014 comes around and I clear my schedule for the day in order to be here for the installer at 9am. Well, 1:30pm rolls around and I still haven't heard or seen anyone from Wayne Overhead Doors. So I call and speak with [redacted] (receptionist) again. After telling her my name and what the problem was, she couldn't remember or look up what work was to be performed. I had to "refresh her memory". I explained to her what I have explained in the previous paragraph of the review. She said that she would put me on hold, and get to the bottom of this. After waiting on hold, she says that the installer that was scheduled to perform my installation had decided not to come to my house to perform the work, in order to finish a job that the installer didn't finish yesterday. She offered to have the installer come out later that day Friday, May 16, 2014 or reschedule for the following week. I requested politely, that if she couldn't get the installer to come to my house that day, Friday, to perform the work, that I would like a refund of my deposit and to cancel the appointment. She put me on hold again, and when she came back on the line, she explained that she will process the refund for me and apologized. I thanked her and ended the call.

Everyone that I dealt with was very nice and courteous but they need to learn how to manage their schedules. Also, if a installer/technician cannot make it to the job site on time or at all in my case, calling the customer should be a priority. I didn't receive any calls notifying me of their error. In fact, I would go as far as to say that if I hadn't called, they would have just kept my deposit and never performed the work.

I will continue to share my terrible experience with Wayne Overhead Doors with everyone that I know.

I signed up for an online degree... Ashworth was very prompt about getting the materials to me. They were great! However, due to financial problems I could not do the classes. I returned everything and they refunded my deposit....they were very understanding... I will do the classes as soon as I can...

I studied at Ashworth College from 2011 through to 2014. During this time I earned a career diploma in forensic science, an associate degree in security management and a bachelor's degree in criminal justice. I had a great experience with the student services team as they were always there to help me with my queries. The academic materials were well designed and the textbooks were well selected. I am thankful for my Ashworth College undergraduate education because I was able to complete my studies debt free. I went on to earn an MBA from an Indian catholic university which was evaluated as being equivalent to a U.S. regionally accredited master's degree. I applied for a master's degree program at Lamar University and was admitted. I also got accepted to four doctoral programs, including Abilene Christian University and Grand Canyon University. My degrees were well valued by these schools. Thank you Ashworth for setting the foundation for my future studies.

As a recent graduate from Ashworth College I'm content with my education I received. My course materials were delivered to me in a timely fashion and I was able to get started on my degree right away. Only downside is, going to school online can present some organization issues on my part.
