Terrible online M.Ed programs

It is very rare that I feel regret about the past, but joining W&M's online program in school counseling was one of the worst decisions I have ever made. There are far more affordable options, but I thought that the university's reputation warrants paying more. Huge mistake. Very few professors are trying to teach. Most classes are "taught" by adjuncts (and I use the word teach very liberally here). Teaching really only involves watching a few poor quality videos (some of which are from YouTube), read a textbook, and write a paper, on which you receive nearly zero feedback. I haven't done a poll but a huge number of students are unhappy and would transfer if not for the money already spent. After nearly 2 years in the program, I am certain that only a couple of faculty member would even recognize my name - asking anyone for a recommendation letter, for example, would be impossible. The faculty really tries to spend as little time as possible on this program, seeing it as a quick and easy pay check. I will qualify that there have been a couple of professors who were outstanding, but they are truly an exception. Course reviews are never addressed and nothing changes. Suddenly, mid-program, the school of education raised tuition by 25% (!) citing inflation. They can and will do this arbitrarily. While this may sound like a rant it is not. I am simply hoping to prevent others from making the mistake that I have made. I was choosing between several programs and made the worst choice imaginable.

A good example

In this university i found peace , friends and the quality education , its not only lectures but they make sure that the students are enjoying while learning . They will mold you into a quality employee or a future boss of your desired business , and that's what i love from them .

Experience in UCB

y time in UCB has been one of the most memorable and precious parts of my teen life. It was where I experienced so many firsts—new friendships, challenges, and moments that shaped who I am today. Every day brought something new to learn, not just in the classroom, but about life, people, and myself. UCB became more than just a place to study—it was a space where I grew, laughed, stumbled, and stood back up. Those years will always hold a special place in my heart, a chapter filled with growth and unforgettable memories. uring my time as a senior high student at the University of Cebu Banilad campus, I learned how to be flexible and adaptable. Balancing academics, responsibilities, and personal life wasn’t always easy, but it taught me the value of time and resilience. Along the way, I met new friends who stood by me through every high and low. They’ve become some of the people I treasure the most, turning ordinary days into unforgettable ones. With them, I discovered not just how to manage life, but how to enjoy it fully—even in the busiest moments.
