I had been debating attending the University of Phoenix for quite some time. I knew it was coming close to decision time so I started calling some local colleges, including Weber State University, University of Utah, and a few others. All offered good programs and relatively reasonable tuition costs for the school type, but just didn't feel like they were schools that would work for me.
Some coworkers of mine had given me feedback on their experience at Phoenix and none of it was bad other than cost, so I decided to contact them. (866.766.0766). I told them I was only inquiring and didn't want to be pressured into anything and they were good about that. Realistically, I knew I was going to attend because I didn't want to mess of large campuses and thousands of students.
I ended up in contact with Robert D'Alton through UoPhx whom was fabulous about giving me the information I needed, and allowing me to take my time and decide what I wanted to do. (Mind you, by the point that I finally was enrolled for classes, it had been months of collaborating back and forth with questions, questions, and more questions.)
Bob helped me understand all the information I needed to know and got me set up and on track. He regularly checked in with me to see where I was at with getting ready for school and if there was anything he could do to help. Of course, there was (and continues to be) plenty of things that I can use help with and he was (and is) fantastic at getting things moving and getting answers for me.
Overall, I'd have to say the enrollment process itself was smooth and without too much head ache. I figure, if I had been a normal transfer (as in, wasn't completing an associates at the time of the transfer), I would have had zero problems with getting in and going.
