San Diego Christian College

School is great!

Lori at San Diego Christian College made this process so much easier. Sometimes college admittance and course decisions can be daunting. Thanks for being there for all the parents (and students).

My review is of their online services. I am taking my BA on line and it has been an amazing experience so far.
Enrollment: was quick, easy and painless. Did everything on the phone and on line. PHIL was able to answer all my questions and got a hold of all my transcripts including the ones from overseas with no cost! Got started in two weeks! Most of my credits also came through so I’m only going to school for one and half years.
Customer Service: if I have a question, I have the different departments to go to and I get a live person who helps me straight away. Or if I’m in a hurry, I speak to my student rep who takes care of everything– he gets the answers for me or he gets the person who knows the answer to talk to me. No running around!
Their turn around time if I need something is amazing. Before I call the next department, they already know and have the paperwork I need cause my student rep informed them.
Classes: they are 5 weeks at a time.
Books: mailed to you a week before class starts. If does come late the professors are good extending your due dates for assignments. Which has never happened to me.
Work load: on average you’ll need to do 2 – 3 chapters of reading and Write a reflection page on it. Participate in weekly discussions: write ur own post and reply to 2 other people. Do a quiz: has 5 – 10 easy questions that u can look at, find the answers to and go back to when u’re ready. There will be a final paper at the end of the class but u can start working on it as soon as classes start. Usually a 7 – 8 page APA style paper.
Professors: like any other college– it’s a mixture of excellent ones and good ones. I haven’t had a bad teacher so far. The excellent ones are the ones that participate in your discussions, give good feedback on your work, grade your work quickly and respond to your questions immediately. The good ones are the ones who pretty much just grade your work and respond to your questions if u email them directly.
Online services: you upload all work, view all lectures, download all documents through your class account. U do not need to worry about logging in somewhere else to do any work. If you have some computer background– you’ll be fine. If not, they have a live online workshop to teach you the functions to work your account.
Online vibe: everyone is helpful, encouraging and will pray for u if u ask them too. Everyone is respectful and will not shove their faith on you. I appreciate that.
I have had an amazing time with SDCC on line. Have two friends enroll with them and two more on their way! Been on the Dean’s list with awesome GPA. I work full time and just had a baby– wat I am trying to point out is that as long as u keep up with the work U’ll do amazing. The work load and educational requirements are fairly easy and very manageable. I can’t say anything about the physical college experience but for the online experience I have nothing but good words!
Good Luck on your search for the right college– not every college is right for every student so find the right one before getting stuck with student loans.
