University of Phoenix Transfer Credits Phoenix, Arizona

I should have known better, as I once taught with UoP (2002-2004). Yet, I found myself needing to take a few classes for my retirement career (teaching), and so I decided to use my VA benefits. I enrolled, and started taking classes towards a BA English. At each step, I was told, "this is the last step you'll need to accomplish." A year later, I just found out that all of my transfer credits did not count and to receive a degree I would need to re-accomplish all the classes I was "waived" for when I enrolled. I already have a BS and a MA degree (MA from the University of North Carolina). I also used to teach at UoP. Yet, somehow they were expecting me to take classes I took 30 years ago. I went from needing just a few classes to earn my 2nd bachelor's to suddenly needing 16. Quite a scam! I just disenrolled. What's so amazing is that they know this is a ripoff, yet they do it anyway. I'm also an idiot for believing them, having once worked there and knowing what jerks they are. One thing they do well is get their hands in your pockets, telling you whatever you want to hear. Only later do they spring the trap.
