      Walden University's customer Service is atrocious. The utilize parchment for their transcripts, but for some reason their IT department cannot keep it running. I had to request my transcripts on October 31st and learned their system was down and this isn't the first time this has happened. They're response to this was very blas and said to just wait. After consistent emails their team acted like they were unable to send an unofficial to anyone, although they had no issue sending it to my own email. After waiting on hold for over an hour multiple times they sent me in a never-ending loop of unhelpful people. I will NEVER recommend this school to anyone based on my own experiences, especially if you are on a time crunch to get documents from them.

      I was as so abused in their np program i am a covid nurse got covid arthritis. I was told to drop out and I'd not succeed due to my disabilities. They play with people generally truly evil people. How they are allowed to actually see patients. They are not nice people treat students so disrespectful Discriminate and they speak to people so poorly it's the most unprofessional nurse practitioner program . They ripped off black students especially target disabled and black students. Nasty people

      I moved from ********** to **************** in 2008. ****** *** reached out to me and shared I had additional funds to return to school which they advised Walden University. I reached out to Walden via telephone and inquired about the online program. I was impressed with the enrollment advisor that was able to bring up my ****** *** loans and actually confirmed that I had the funds to return to school if I wished to. I signed up for Walden for their Criminal Justice program on 02/10/2010. Within two months of enrolling in the program, the financial aid department reached out to me through my Walden email portal. I was informed that ****** *** was mistaken about my loans and I was told in the email that I would be responsible for all monies owed now up front and due immediately. I wrote back via email and shared how I am a single mother of three girls living on welfare, food stamps, and $650 a month and still responsible for my bills and I would not have the funds to continue my education. I continued to argue with Walden I didn't have the money and decided to withdraw from the college. Fast forward to now 09/17/2022 I find out Walden University kept me enrolled for the entire two-year program and on top of that I received grades for all my classes that I never attended. I continued to receive bills for the amount of $2,224 each semester and I continued to reach out to Walden telling them I dropped out 04/2010. Now my student loans have ballooned to owing $101,788 all because Walden kept me enrolled even when I dropped out. Wouldn't one think if they attended Walden for two years they would have a diploma? Because I do not have anything to show for attending Walden.

      Before you spend a dime at Walden University, read as many reviews as you possibly can from other students. They took me for a ride! They charge me for services they did not deliver. *******************, nor their doctoral program is rigorous or sufficient enough to graduate with credibility. I left their school, enrolled in another one, and leaned more in two classes than I did in the six classes I took with them.
