"Have had an awesome experience. Challenged yet completely online so fully self paced which helps me as I watch my child as a stay at home father. Anyone claiming diploma mill or whatever is false first of all. This school is regionally accredited by the HLC and is challenging. Also is under the CSU System umbrella. Seems a lot of people cannot keep up with self paced work so they bash the school based on their own failures."

"Once CSU-G collects tuition, students deal with a bizarre system: (1) Professors don’t teach. No lecture or examples are given by them. Professors only grade assignments and moderate useless discussion groups. (2) Students are self-taught. Questions are answered with links to YouTube. Students stop asking, and just search online. (3) Instruction materials are inferior. eTexts are zyBooks from India, full of errors. Software is open-source, full of bugs. (4) Students can interact only in controlled discussion groups. Students who parrot eTexts are applauded. (5) All assignments must be written in APA format. This is never used in professional papers, which use formats such as IEEE. (6) Professors consider social media to be “career enhancement activity.” (7) When problems occur, students are given uncaring, unhelpful responses. The bureaucracy at CSU-G exists to make money, not help students. (8) CSU-G is not Colorado State University. Employers know who the diploma mills are. One is way better off at a brick-and-mortar school with a solid reputation. If this helps just one person avoid CSU-G, it was worth writing."

"CSU Global has afforded me the opportunity to achieve my continued education goals while simultaneously developing my career and performing my familial duties with little to no interruption. I'm immensely grateful for the opportunities I have unlocked in life thanks to the accessibility and affordability of CSU Global's Accredited distance learning programs."

"CSU Global is a great school that opens up many opportunities to students coming from a variety of backgrounds. I appreciate that they accept alternative credit options and credit for military experience. I have enjoyed my time at the school and highly recommend their advisors."

"I find the enrollment counselors, student success counselors, and financial aid counselors to be very knowledgeable, and I've had the best advising I've ever had at this school. I transferred in over 60 credits from my associate degree and then completed 15 credits through Sophia.org which helped in making my bachelor's more affordable. The only classes that I absolutely had to take at the school were the "degree core classes" which were 30 credits for me. The majority of the coursework is a discussion board, textbook readings, and writing a paper every week which is usually 3-4 pages for every class. At the end of the class, there's generally a portfolio project which is much longer and can be as long as 20 pages. I would have preferred more hands-on experience instead of writing so many papers which is why I gave a 4 star rating. If you're not prepared to write so many papers, this school may not be a good option for you."
