George Washington University Reviews
Rating 4.37 out of 5 90 reviews
Like any graduate-level program, it requires the candidate to read and write... a lot! The coursework is more extensive and very detailed compared to any undergraduate programs. Critical thinking is necessary and professors still require interaction with classmates even if it is online (via discussion boards or virtual meetings). The classes that one takes all relate to each other and to innovative topics and real-life applications to your discipline. Concepts that you learn in a previous course can be used to help you succeed in a future class. It's nice to read an article online or in the newspaper on a subject matter that you learned during the semester and relate it to your classmates; it feels encouraging and provides more drive for you to reach closer to your career goals.
I am currently pursuing an online graduate program. The program is very convenient. You can study at your own pace with most assignments due on Sundays. The professors are very knowledgeable in their respected disciplines and they are easy to reach out via email or phone call if requested within 48 hours. An academic advisor is assigned to you to ensure your success in the program; he or she will help you register for classes that suit your needs and preferences, and provide you tools/tips that will aid in your coursework. The application process was fairly easy. An application advisor is dedicated to ensure your documents and essays are submitted in a timely manner. The graduate program provides a board for teachers and students; individuals can post job opportunities/fairs, internships, scholarship info, applications to various societies and organizations, and many other helpful things that will help individuals reach closer to their goals.
The university has world-class faculty and a stellar location in downtown Washington DC. I am at the Milken Institute School of Public Health, and i appreciate that the school has their own financial aid office, student services, alumni office, etc so students have access to more resources. One let down has been that the school boasted having "flexible" class schedules for part time students who are working, but unfortunately many of the classes I have to take begin at 3pm (which doesnt work with my 9-5pm work schedule). For grad students interested in public health at GWU, i'd recommend looking at the online program because the schedule is more flexible and geared towards those who work. Also as part of the MPH program we are expected to complete a practicum which is challenging for those who work full time.
