Update to original post. October 28, 2025 Still at it. In third year now. Still maintain initial sentiment - overall terrific experience. This school is one of the few offering asynchronous learning meaning you can access course materials including recorded lectures any time. So yes it still requires a tremendous level of effort, dedication, and self-discipline. But it's quite possible for an older person such as myself, who is a full-time working professional and father with a family and other obligations to contemporaneous... read more

The school is a fantastic opportunity for those who are willing to put in the work and are capable of self-teaching. Grit is a must, the coursework is no less rigorous than at an ABA school.

There is little to no guidance provided to students, and when questions or concerns are raised, responses are either delayed for weeks or completely ignored. Communication is unhelpful, which makes it difficult to feel supported. Additionally, the way students are treated lacks respect and consideration. Instead of fostering a supportive learning environment, the university leaves students to navigate challenges on their own without proper resources or direction.

Northwestern California University has a simple, straightforward platform that makes it easy to learn and stay focused. The coursework is clear, and the school provides plenty of support when needed. This isn’t a program where you’ll be engaged 24/7—it’s designed for people who want to get the job done and move forward with their careers, plain and simple. I really enjoy NWCU and don’t regret my decision at all. The only change I’d suggest is with grading. Right now, one exam counts for 66% of the grade, which feels unbalanc... read more
