University of the People - UoPeople Speciality : Computer Science
programme: Applied Computer Science

I am writing this review honestly.
As a young African, opportunities to attend a world-renowned higher education institution are extremely rare, and I can safely say that studying at UoPeople was one of the greatest opportunities I have ever had. As well as having the privilege of receiving a free education, I had complete flexibility to study at times and in places that suited me.

I will always recommend UoPeople so that others can have the same opportunity.

My experience with the programme has been positive and enriching. As a student in Operations Management, I have gained valuable knowledge and practical skills that are relevant to both academic and professional settings. The structure of the courses encourages independent learning, time management, and discipline. The support from instructors and academic resources has also been helpful in guiding my progress. Overall, the programme has contributed meaningfully to my development and has helped me build a stronger foundation for my future career.

Studying at UoPeople has been a meaningful experience for me. As a student in Operations Management, I have learned how to manage my time, improve my study habits, and develop skills that are useful in both work and daily life. The online system makes it possible for me to balance education with my personal responsibilities. I also appreciate the guidance from instructors and mentors who help me stay on track. Overall, it has been a valuable journey that is helping me build a better future.

I completed my programme at University of the People and overall it was a positive experience. The biggest strength of UoPeople is its accessibility — being tuition-free makes higher education possible for students who might otherwise not afford it. The courses are structured well, and the online format gave me flexibility to study around my job and personal commitments.
The instructor and peer support was generally helpful, though because everything is online and asynchronous, it sometimes felt less personal than a traditional campus. I appreciated the diversity of classmates from all over the world, which enriched discussions and broadened perspectives.
While there were some challenges with pacing and occasional delays in feedback, overall I feel the programme gave me valuable skills and a credible credential that I can put toward my career goals. I would recommend UoPeople to self-motivated learners seeking a low-cost, flexible degree.

The university of the people is very very good in all aspects, especially when it comes to encouraging people to take you education serious no matter what you are doing whatever which country you’re coming from is acceptable and the tuition fee is free and the education system is very good.
The only thing that is affecting some of us especially we that are from Africa our time difference is really affecting us badly.
Like me now I’m a personnel we were sent to special duties, the village I am currently the network is very bad and is affecting my studies to the extend that I was absent for good 3 terms.

My experience at University of the People has been very positive. The courses are well-structured and allow me to learn at my own pace, which is ideal for balancing work, family, and studies. The instructors are knowledgeable, approachable, and provide helpful feedback on assignments. I especially appreciate the diverse, international student community—it’s inspiring to connect with peers from all over the world.

One thing that stood out was the emphasis on real-world skills and practical assignments, which prepared me well for professional development. While the online format requires self-discipline, the flexibility it provides is invaluable. I would highly recommend UoPeople to anyone seeking a quality, affordable, and flexible higher education option.

University of the People has truly changed my life. As a refugee facing many challenges, I never imagined getting quality education. But UoPeople made it possible—it’s flexible, affordable, and truly empowering.

“I attended University from Term 3 and now I am still, studying Computer Science. Overall, my experience was positive. The faculty were knowledgeable and supportive, and I felt that the curriculum was both challenging and relevant to my career goals. The campus itself was well-maintained, with plenty of resources like libraries and study spaces that made it easy to focus on my studies.

However, there were a few aspects I found less favorable. The administrative processes could be quite slow at times, especially when it came to enrollment and financial aid. Additionally, I felt that some of the course content could have been updated to better reflect the current industry trends.

Despite these issues, I would still recommend University of the people, especially to students who are looking for a strong academic foundation and a supportive community. It’s a great place to study if you’re motivated and willing to navigate some of the bureaucratic hurdles.”
