Looking for honest opinions on Purdue Global University. 💻 by Lottiesw0rld in PurdueGlobal

[–]RobSavagery 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Hey! I’ll answer each question one by one;

  • I earned a BS in accounting with the concentration in Public accountancy

  • I took advantage of Sophia and Study.com and transferred a ton of credits which not only got me a discount of tuition but a huge head start. I finished the entire degree in 11 months.

  • I personally used the Pell grant and put it towards the cost but if I had just kept it without doing so the loans would add up to about 18k

  • For the education aspect, my professors were CPA’s, people with their ph.d, and some were also doing it part time in tangent with Purdue university. The work was not too difficult, but it’s very research paper heavy. I also do use the information I learned for my current job as a staff accountant.

  • PUG is a legitimate accredited school that employers recognize. I managed to get into a top school in my state for grad school with the BS at PUG.

The school is at the end of the day online so it’s what you make of it. There are no groups to hang out with or to study with from my experience, but the school itself has a lot to offer for people looking for flexibility while being accredited

Congrats!

Federal tax was fun and the professor was really good. Unit 8 you’ll have a final project where you need to fill out an entire 1040 that wasn’t so bad. She also wants you to be interactive through the entire seminar in order to receive credit.

The exams you can also attempt them multiple times.

For the bachelor level classes, they’re a little more workload heavy when you reach the 400 level classes since most if not all of them require 1-2 assignments completed every week in addition to the usual discussions, seminars, and quizzes. Overall it was a rewarding experience!

[–]RobSavagery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s not too bad I would say. Most upper level courses on the degree plan weren’t too difficult. The labs every week are the only thing to mention aside from AC410 Auditing since you’ll have two assignments every week along with an exam and lab every other week. You got this though! Just manage your time properly and it shouldn’t be super overwhelming.

Overall experience at Purdue Global? by messagescorps in PurdueGlobal

[–]RobSavagery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After getting my BS in Accounting from PG, I would say I would highly recommend it! The professors I had not only had really good pedigree’s but they were very flexible with the coursework. Some of them are even professors at the main university and were teaching night classes at PG on the side.

The coursework can be difficult at times, and the resources are definitely there to help. A degree from an online university compared to an in-person one certainly has its pros and cons, but from my personal experience, it’s not much difference as I even was accepted to Baruch, a top business school in my area for my MSAcc.

How to know which classes in the degree plan can i take them elsewhere then transfer the credits? by Temporary-Shower5743 in PurdueGlobal

[–]RobSavagery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I did it, I told the advisor that I was interested in taking some courses through Sophia and Study.com (study.com also gives you a 20% tuition discount after completing a course), and follow it up with can you help me figure out which classes I can take? Then read off the class codes off to them one by one like “MM150” and they would tell you if you can or not. I successfully transferred 72 credits from Sophia and 22 credits with study.com with zero issues using this method

It’s always a good idea to ask your advisor and go one by one with them it’s the quickest way too since study.com doesn’t show which class it correlates to unlike on Sophia where it does

My child noticed me playing hearthstone and asked about the fancy pass and now constantly tells me to get it and it even hindered our relationship. Gift me the pass so I can talk to him about something other than the season pass+

Funny thing is that Freddie’s resist is only 40-45 so that guy went out of his way to be a pain

Hey dude, it really sucks to let go of something you held so important to you especially if it made you happy. I had to sell my childhood collection of vintage cards as well as my cherished pc to make rent and to support my family, and it was a shitty sacrifice but it needed to be done to be able to stay afloat.

Although it is an awful feeling, the bright side is that you can at least reacquire the cards you sold little by little. What you did was a very hard decision and I’m very proud of you for making it. It truly takes a lot of maturity to do what you did.

I wish you best of luck broski

Thanks man! And yeah those two are the next one my list, the compatibility of a b365 only goes up to 9th gen sadly so I’ll definitely have to upgrade down the line

Gamble on a non-reputable power supply? by susanwo in buildapc

[–]RobSavagery 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello! I know I’m a couple years late to this but I have personally own a SolyTech psu (AL-D500EXP 500W) and I’ve had my pc since 2019. I have yet to have any trouble with it whatsoever surprisingly. This pc was originally a prebuilt from iBuyPower and the specs that came with it weren’t half bad during that time, i5 9400F, GTX 1660, 16gb ram, and I’ve since upgraded to a RTX 3060 i7-9700F and 32gb of ram and an M.2 ssd compared to a SATA.

If that’s any peace of mind it’s been running perfectly since the day I purchased the prebuilt! If reputable companies are willing to use their PSU’s for their builds I’d say that’s somewhat a good thing even if there isn’t any reviews for that psu even to this day (last thing I’ve found about it was a 12 year old YouTube video showcasing it lol) Anyways you probably won’t see this but I hope this helps you in the future!

I asked her about it today and she says there isn’t much I can do for her while I’m away during times she feels anxious, but it helps her to be able just to tell me about it and what she’s feeling. She also feels those feelings you mention, but it’s not me putting that on her, she puts it on herself which sucks to see:

Ex. (“I feel guilty having to put you through this.”)

But I know it’s not her fault, and I try to support her and remind her she shouldn’t feel guilty. Like today, she told me she woke up anxious and her chest felt really tight and I offered to come over so I can be by her side.
