    I finally completed my Bachelor's Degree at Excelsior after many years away from school. I am totally satisfied with my experience at Excelsior. The professors were truly excellent, the curriculum was rigorous and engaging. My fellow online classmates were also very collaborative and engaged. I would get my Master's at Excelsior if they offered a graduate program of interest. Overall from start to finish, great experience!
    The courses are very convenient. The counselors are great! It’s a great way for busy adults to earn a degree. The tuition is pretty average. The financial aid department seems to need more training. They were not able to help me find solutions to pay my tuition. I had to learn ways on my own.
