    :confused:

    I have finally narrowed my choice between either UOP or Touro. After searching through the threads of email--it appears that UOP has somewhat of a bad reputation. I am still on the fence about this--I want to make a good decision. I plan to major in the field of Health Care Adminstration/Services. Is there anyone out there that has obtained their degree in this area and could possible provide the pro's and con's of the program taken at the above listed schools? I was wondering if the opinons that were expressed throughout the board related to the area of concentration--or was it directed towards to the entire program. Please help!!!!!!

    You didn't state if it was a BA, Master's, or Doctorate, but I took an undergraduate class at UOP and will never take a class again.

    I have also researched Touro for a Doctorate in Business and it seems like a very strong school, with a growing reputation.

    Both will land you an accredited degree. Personally, cost, etc. being equal I would choose Touro U. University of Phoenix has been called the McDonald's of Universties and you may avoid that reputation with Touro.

    Good luck.

    Having gotten my undergrad at UoP, and taking my PhD at Touro, I am in the position to give a qualified opinion here.

    I say go with Touro. Although I don't agree that UoP has a bad reputation, I do think Touro's is better. At the undergread level, you would have to take fewer classes to get the degree. Starting with nothing, it would take 40 at UoP and 30 at Touro. Also, a class at Touro is $1000, where UoP is over $1200. I think Touro is headed to more prestige than UoP.

    Just my thoughts.
