    I am checking out Walden too. I have spoken with them on the phone several times. They are very helpful, but not pushy in any way.
    Walden is a regionally accredited school and has been around for 30 years. Everything I have found so far has been positive.
    Only negative is cost for doctoral program. About $300 per credit hour. They said people usually take 2 course at a time and it takes about 12 weeks to complete.
    I am looking into their doctoral degree in Public Health.

    Walden was my first choice. I went through the application phase and was granted admission into the Applied Management and Decision Science Ph.D. program. Once the first bill arrived reality hit - this was going to cost over $40K to complete provided I did indeed finish. If I had alternate financial support I would have done it in a heartbeat. All of their programs look sound and the student is required to do extensive research and writing throughout the programs 7 Knowledge Area Modules. .Walden would be an excellent choice if you so choose. Good Luck.
