University of Phoenix

That school you know from spam email. Another diploma mill like Walden University or Trinity Southern University that US News and World Report thinks are below even a ttt.

Their school consists of canned classes and shares most of the content with the other online schools. There is no original thought, their reputation is that of junk mail and no one that you have ever heard of has graduated from there.

University of Phoenix

A business disguised as a school that uses spam as a means of luring in new unsuspecting customers. This diploma mill uses many sneaky advertising tactics, such as coming up as the first result in google search when typing in "university of", TV ads featuring sensationalized stories and fast-paced music, and a YouTube channel that features their "success stories" and that blocks any user that posts anything remotely critical of the school in their videos' comment sections. According to several accounts on the internet, most classes at UoP consist of nothing remotely useful. If one is able to get a job after graduating from here and pay off the $200,000 they owe in loans, they are truly lucky.
