NCU Students: Sallie, Nellie and Questions.

Getting ready to make a decision on whether to enroll in NCU and just wondering if there are any NCU students who might be able to answer a few questions.

First, what are the advantages and disadvantages of using Nellie Mae vs. Sallie Mae? I spoke with the FA office at NCU and they mentioned Sallie but said some others might be using Nellie. They could not elaborate on why people chose one over the other.

Also, can anyone provide a "day in the life" example of how the courses work at NCU. I've used Blackboard before and also have done independent study (self paced). What have you experienced at NCU?

Finally, I asked about enrollment numbers in the Ph.D program and the Registrar's office has not called me back. Anyone have these approx. figures? Thanks in advance and if you would like to PM me with the info, that is fine too.

 

nellie is owned by Sallie Mae, just different loan programs. just like SLFR.
