    Does anyone have experience with the University of the Rockies, particularly the new PHD program? It seems interesting with a few short residencies. Would appreciate some opinions before I move forward. thanks.

    I am now a year into the PHD in OD at University of the Rockies. It is a great program so far and I enjoyed the residency in Denver. With six week classes, I am nearing the completion of 21 semester hours.

    University of the Rockies is a regional accredited and private own by Bridgepoint Education, the same company owns Ashford University. I have not seen any complaints about the school; however, always avoid private for-profit institution as possible.

    Unlike the other people here that seem to prefer to worry about how you spend your money and to share their personal preferences I congratulate you for completing your first year and moving ahead. Great job!

    Did you not notice that the original post was from over a year ago and was the same person that updated to say that they were 1 year in to the program at this point and really liked it?

    Nope, I sure didn't. Congratulations, jgaddy33688!

    (The price tag still makes me say wow, though....)
