College On Line

I am looking for some info on the university of Phoenix online courses are the GED programs a scam and does anyone have a degree from there?

I did my GED in 2005 so I have an High School diploma. I really would like to earn a degree in something. The only problem is I’m living in Germany and they don’t accept the GED as they do a normal high school diploma. In the US I can study, my SAT scores were about average. I was wondering if I could start a program even though I’m not currently living in the US.

I’m especially interested to read answers from people who were in the program.

My friend wants to do it and she said this recruiter was pressuring her and said she didn’t need references from other schools which I thought brought up a red flag. Does anyone know anything about this?

How prestigious is getting a Masters in English from the University of Phoenix? Is it looked on as a credible degree or not really? What other online schools are more prestigious or available?

I have an undergrad degree with a GPA of 2.4. The University of Phoenix admissions requirements state you must have a 2.5. Do I have any chances of still getting in? My graduate degree I would go for would be very closely related to my career I am currently in.
