244 Arden University reviews

It is one long hall. 2 vending machines and computers in lounge room so you can't concentrate. They do have a quiet study room but most of my time there it was out of use or used as a store room

Student support is extremely poor. They ignore mails and do not sort issues. They constantly push you back onto the ilearn. They will not go out of their way at all. I have sent mails and not even had responses. It is a university that only cares about getting you in.

Tutors are not the issue. They are all made to followw the same lesson plan. They say that online is the lectures and classes are the workshop. However the online material is poorly written for learners and quite inaccurate at times. They force you into 6 weeks modules with little time to explore the area. They do not do the modules in order. You basically do it in the order that financially suits them and you will be mixed with different people who have not covered what you did or the other way round. So lots of the workshops are very basic and going over stuff already taught. It does not push you or engage you in conversation. There is no practical work or experiences. You will pass the modules but they set you up to fail on your dissertation. They will put you in groups who are not even on your course. Student support will not support you or get back to you.

Dirty everywhere

They always say to you, I can’t do anything about it I’m sorry but I understand your frustration

The way this university teach is absolutely a joke, tutors don’t have an idea of the modules they are teaching plus impossible to reach out the student support and the student finance. I don’t recommend this university at all because it will waste your time

They make you think you are going to get the job and the degree but at the end of your degree they just kick you out

NEVER STUDY HERE I started studying with Arden over a year and a half ago. I was extremely excited at the prospect. I have been consistently let down by the university. I have had multiple reviews of essays with completely contradictory feedback to the point it felt impossible to complete successful work. This continued until I was mentally exhausted and decided to with draw form the course. I found out today that it seems the uni had actively withheld the information of my withdrawal from SFE. I have received a lot of strange emails from the university after my student withdrawal.

The online student platform is useful, it is not as effective as it could be, Student Reps and University Staff do monitor the boards, but it can take a while to get a reply.

The Student Support teams have been amazing in helping me adapt and cope with university life as a severely disabled person, this has been a challenge, but the staff have made it their responsibility to resolve any queries and to make the degree fully accessible for me.

As a distance learning student on the BA (Hons) Business (Human Resources Management) degree, I have found the university to be very supportive, and the learning materials to be sufficient - I do feel some of the modules are ready for a bit of an update - but that does not detract from the quality of the learning materials. The Tutors and Support Staff are all really helpful.

Currently, in the pandemic era, there is a massive jobs market for qualified Human Resources professionals and currently, the starting salary range seems to be increasing. The job prospects, at this point, look very good.

Yes

My course is online since I have been facing difficulties commuting. The average study hours is 20 per week. Zoom meeting, that is the lecturer's class, ranges from one to three hours a day. It depends on the module. Tutors and support team can be contacted through the email provided or telephone number. By email, you get your enquiry answered within 2 working days. The payment can be in instalments or full. You can access your module for your desired programme through an online platform that has everything a student might need, such as, libraries, online tutors for developing your academic skills and one to one tutoring, as well as, guidance in writing your CV or resume and helping you connect with HR manager to get hired and search for jobs nearby. There are more benifits so you won't regret enrolling.

Some of the information on the subjects are a little brief. I haven’t had to contact a tutor yet but one did reach out to me to see if I need help with anything.

My course is full-time, it is face-to-face, that are evening classes taught at night and everything is very well programmed, it is very punctual, and it is also very well connected for transportation.

Anytime, anywhere just need a laptop and WiFi.
