Slopest school ever. They never inform you of anything regarding your education your just suprised. Take loans on your behalf without your permission. I'm pretty sure that's illegal. Add classes on without informing student. Never talk to an adult who doesnt go to the school. Advisors are always on break when they messed items up and you need to talk to them. Some teachers take forever to grade so you dont know your grade until the class is over. No good through communication that gets anywhere. Do not graduate when they say you will find extra classes out of nowhere. Save your money go to a different school if you want a Christian education it is not worth it here. They stress you out so much for no reason. Plus they are more expensive than other schools so save money and stress go somewhere else

A decent school that allowed me to take one class at a time which is hugely beneficial to me since I have to help my parents out. But at one point I started to not do so well because of the mental illness (depression) that I suffer with and other things in my life had started getting in the way of my work. I sent in an appeal and it was rejected, I was kicked out and I don't think that I was given a fair chance. Other than that it is a good school for others who can only do one class at a time.

I emailed to let the school to let them know that my father was in hospice and that I was in no shape to complete my class. The only option they gave me was to get caught up in to weeks when I asked to withdraw prior to the class starting. I was told that since I had signed into my student account that I was responsible for the full course. Additionally they gave me an F and not a withdrawal. This is supposed to be a Christian school but has no compassion. I have tried to no avail to get them to remove the F at the minimum. I told them they could keep the 1500.00. Unfortunately still nothing. Sad that they claim to be Christian but won't do the right thing.

Two of my sons graduated from Ohio Christian University and it was a wonderful experience for both of them. The knowledge they received there as graduates has resulted in both of them owning and operating very successful businesses. Most of all, they we're loved and cared about by friends and staff alike. I had reservations at first but it was the best place they could have gone and now the university has grown by leaps and bounds. They both received encouragement and support throughout their time there over all. Most of all they we're encouraged in their walk with the Lord and are young men seeking after Jesus and doing their best to live for Him and care for their families while serving others and giving back to their communities in many ways. I have a great respect for this University.

Beware if you are going to school online, No one will call you back except you recruiter. I have been waiting 5 days for a call back or a email from student adviser Seth Brisker Not sure if he still works there, Im personally thinking about going to a different school.

Heather Ward's and Rhayanna Chandler's reviews criticizing Ohio Christian University's accreditation are 100% NOT true. Ohio Christian University is regionally accredited through the Higher Learning Commission, the same agency which accredits highly rated and renowned public and private universities such as Purdue University, The University of Notre Dame, Northwestern University, Drake University, DePaul University, University of Michigan - Ann Arbor, Creighton University, University of Arizona, Oberlin College, Marquette University, University of Wyoming, and University of Nebraska - Lincoln. That list is only a small selection of major universities accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. Regional accreditation, which Ohio Christian University holds, is the gold standard of accreditation in the United States. To further emphasize the importance of regional accreditation, Harvard, Yale, Columbia, and Princeton are all regionally accredited. Ohio Christian University is rated as a top-tier university by the US News College Rankings for 2016 and is ranked as #62 for regional colleges in the Midwest. I am a proud alumnus of Ohio Christian University and I graduated in April 2016 with a BA in Business Management. I felt it necessary to present the facts about Ohio Christian University and its regional accreditation, which is NOT religious accreditation. Both Heather Ward and Rhayanna Chandler are clearly inaccurate in their reviews of the university. As a matter of record, Ohio Christian University is ALSO accredited by the Association for Biblical Higher Education simply because it is a Christian university. Being a regionally accredited university, I do not believe Heather or Rhayanna when each state they are dead in the water and credits do not transfer. The only reasons a course from Ohio Christian University would not transfer to another regionally accredited college or university are as follows: Either the receiving school feels that certain credits they took are credits from courses which are a duplicate of other courses they took or the courses do not apply toward their major at the new college and they already have enough elective credits. That is the case any time a student transfers from one regionally-accredited college to another. I personally have researched MBA programs at other colleges which all are willing to accept Ohio Christian University's credits in full from my BA in Business Management degree program. Heather and Rhayanna are correct that the university requires books to be purchased at the Tree of Life bookstore. However, I find that to be very convenient because I do not have to pay for the books out of pocket, since financial aid covers the books to begin with, and because I do not have to search for the books elsewhere because the books are automatically shipped to the student for each course. The only books which I found to be expensive are the math books which had to be purchased as brand new. For most courses the student can either lease the books or purchase used books to keep costs down. In regard to the devotional requirements, most Christian colleges require some sort of chapel attendance or that religious courses to be taken as part of their degree programs. Typically, students choose to attend a Christian college because they want to have that experience.

Heather Wards comment is actually spot on. I personally have a love/hate relationship with this college. Like Heather said the books come from Tree of Life and they’re VERY EXPENSIVE and you have absolutely no choice but to receive them from there and like Heather I also found the exact same books that they issue out brand new for 1/4th the cost. As far as the professors and financial aid they’re very helpful and professional and I’ve had no issues with receiving answers and help. Once again like Heather said the school’s degrees are useless unless you’re attending ministry. This is a Christian school which I am fully aware of but I’ve learned more about Christ than what I’m actually supposed to be learning which is Human Resources. I am currently in the process of switching schools mainly due to how overpriced OCU is and changing my major but I recently found out that all my credits are useless therefore I’m 9,500$ in debt to a college that ripped me off and like Heather I’m in dead water. The courses are extremely easy! Honestly too easy none of the courses are challenging. Like Heather said there is lots of bible study assignments and devotionals which I could get at church and not get charged for it I don’t feel as if I should be getting charged for biblical courses and biblical books when I’m supposed to be studying HR. My biggest issue with OCU though is as I’m transferring they’re holding me hostage demanding I pay 100$ to leave the school as if I signed a contact with them this is not to release my transcripts as I have already paid the 10$ to have them sent to my new school.

Very disheartened. The books are VERY expensive - math book was almost $300. No option to purchase books elsewhere, they are contracted with Tree Of Life Book store and ALL students MUST pay their prices. Found the same books for 1/4 of the cost many other places brand new. Issues with a professor were handled appropriately on my end, no complaints there. My biggest complaint is that I found out their degree's are not worth the paper they are printed on unless you are going into ministry, which I am not. I am working on a business management degree. My credits DO NOT transfer to a traditional community college. Their accreditation are not through higher education organizations, they are through religious organizations making those credits worthless to any other college or university and I am not over $10000 in debt. I have spoken to several colleges and I am dead in the water with over 1 year wasted. I emailed the school 2 days ago, but have received no response. Course work, aside from Algebra, were not difficult or challenging. Just a lot of writing and a template to put it all in. Lots of devotionals and Bible study though, but I can get that at church. Was looking for a challenging school, Christian based, that I could possibly transfer to a local college at a later date. This is not it. feeling deflated.
