University of East Carolina, any information

Im looking for a school with a online program thats right for me, and found this one. Has anyone had experience with their online programs?

 

Is that East Carolina University East Carolina University or the University of East Carolina?

 

East Carolina Univ,

 

My brother is in their Online Masters of Tech and really likes the program and the school.

 

I completed a graduate certificate in Finance at East Carolina within the past year. Their online programs are well-run, with courses mainly taught by associate and full professors, not adjunct instructors. They use Blackboard as their online course platform, and required proctored exams in all courses. Getting a proctor is very easy if you live in NC, as the UNC system of schools maintains a large proctor database that is shared among the 17 campuses of the UNC system and the community colleges as well. I don't know what the proctoring process would be like out of state. The only issue I had with ECU was that course availability sometimes seemed to be a problem. My program was only four courses long, but it took me six semesters to get all four courses in because the courses I needed weren't offered every term. I've been told that additional faculty is being hired to improve this, but since I'm not a student there anymore, I can't validate it one way or the other. Still, it's a good school, with a wide variety of undergraduate and graduate programs offered online. Tuition and fees are as cheap as you'll find if you live in NC, and are pretty reasonable for out-of-state students. ECU has a bit of a party school reputation, but it also has a large alumni network (over 50,000 active alumni association members), and its profile has risen lately because of an expanding medical school and the recent addition of a dental school. There may be higher-profile schools that you could attend, depending on what you want to major in, but ECU is an excellent value and I highly recommend it. You won't go wrong putting an East Carolina degree on your resume. Good luck!

 

Thank you, I am interested in their MA program English and hopefully plan to get in it they do have good rates, I am a military spouse so I move around a lot
