Please just tell me that does SSU worth it?
This school dosen not have national accreditation so if you want to further pursue your carrer please dont go here as most of the good universities dosen’t accept SSU degree.
1. Of the 8 professors I had – only 3 are knowledgeable enough to teach from my opinion and that is having the the teaching skills, the theoretical and experiential knowledge and the energy to teach. About 5 of those professors were either not properly prepared when they come to class, missed classes more than a couple of times, didn’t provide interesting and challenging activities. The activities were mostly going through powerpoint activities. One class, managerial accounting, which is quite critical, was tought by someone who graduated from Harvard but clearly has not teaching skills. He knows finance and has worked in that field but has difficulty teaching it in a manner that is understandable to other people. He is better off working in accounting and finance than teaching.
2. quality of studentry – some students could barely speak and write English! Most of the students I were with in classes didn’t even know how to create a decent powerpoint presentation material and how to do a decent presentation. It was an MBA class, btw. Some students were in the class and would just sit in the class, copy homeworks and cram the last minute. This is very obvious on the group exercises that we did – some didn’t even have a clue of the topics we were discussing.
3. Services – this gave me a big headache. The frontline staff providing answers were from the studentry who hhad poor customer service skills. They won’t listen to requests, won’t follow-up on what they promised to do. While their emails would say Dear Mr or Miss, the content of their responses doesn’t address the issues raised by the students. This is a for-profit school and this is clear on all transactions – money first before anything else. The school administration doesn’t even have an idea on the background of their students. Primarily, whoever can pay is fine with min entry requirements hence the poor quality of studentry.
I had a post purchase dissidence but I didn’t want to go through the process of transferring and I like to finish what I set out to do so I resigned myself to what I started with. And now, I wouldn’t even volunteer that I have an MBA sinc deep inside I’m not to proud of that school – I’d rather not be affiliated with that school. the money I spent there can be considered as money spent to experience living abroad rather than gaining knowledge from an institution. However – it was interesting to meet people from different countries while in this school – students who were struggling to make ends meet, foreign students supporting their education by working illegally while studying in the US – a different class of foreign students. It was humbling to see them working their way through school.
