I had a pretty decent time at Athabasca. If you are contemplating going to Athabasca, I would say that an acute ability to manage time and a high level of self discipline is necessary to succeed. I thought the staff was vary helpful and accommodating, but I wish that each student had one course coordinator designated to him/herself. It would be a lot easier to contact the school and ask for help.

I wouldn't recommend Athabasca Online Courses unless the student wants to work harder then they would in an actual university or really need the freedom to complete their courses. I took a SOC and CMN course. The SOC course looked promising with the assigned textbooks and movie. The material was interesting but the amount of reading that had to be done was more then I do in my courses at University of Ottawa. Furthermore, the final exam wanted me to study 8 essay questions and write an essay for 3 randomly chosen ones on the day of the exam in 4 hours. Excuse me? I understand they want to show and teach excellence but they are asking too much especially when the customer service was bad and unfriendly, there were alway more things to pay for and contacting my tudor was difficult. I had a similar issue with my CMN course, again a lot of work, confusing material with no clear end goal and I'm upset to say that I've retained less then half the material. As a student whos done online courses before and prides themself doing well in university I thought my experince at Athabasca would be better.

Taxx401 was so difficult. The textbook is written by the course coordinator so the exams are extremely difficult and you can't take your books in with you. Expecting a student to memorize an entire tax textbook is ridiculous. With them not having lectures to explain the course content in an easily understood way, it takes hours and hours of reading and re-reading the text to understand it. There has to be a better way to do online university.

I had an amazing experience at Athabasca U! I was able to finish my graduate degree in nursing, which was fully online and keep my full-time job. I did not lose any pay from work, or any seniority at work. I only had to work around taking my vacation/stat days off, and needed to do homework in my spare time, usually on weekends. Although, it was challenging to juggle my time, I found my professors to be fair and understanding, and I could always get the support when needed. I felt that I made the best decision for my career by choosing a online degree, and it has made me a more rounded person, and it opened a lot of doors for me! I would recommend AU for any busy working professional!!!

Opaque online models, ultrahigh course fees, high course work loads, and the inability to really connect with any professors for help make Athabasca a terrible choice. I have two degrees from McMaster University and was taking a course at Athabasca proved markedly more work than any number of Undergraduate courses I've done at other universities. TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. Just go to your local university and learn in person.
