AIU EXPERIENCE
The experience I have in AIU is a landmark to my academic pursuit. The experience was very positive. AIU helped me discover who I am. A new road to an educational journey which is totally different from what I knew already. The system of learning here all revolves and are centered on the student. The student is the key player without having to depend more on the teacher/ lecturers just as it is found in the traditional system. Students are allowed to design their own curriculum. This helps the students to really discover who they are and their capabilities. It also helps students discover their hidden potentials that would not have been realized if it were in the traditional settings. You decide when to schedule and submit your assignment without the unnecessary interventions from the supervisors and their delays.
Well, I am glad to say that my experience in AIU was worth the effort, the money spent, and also the time. It was indeed rewarding. It gave me the chance to connect my past, present and the future experience all together.
One of the things I found so interesting is that someone is always there to assist when the need be. The program was affordable. Thanks to the installment system of payment which allowed me to pay when I was able to do so.
However, though I had wonderful experience in AIU, there is still something missing. I am suggesting that AIU should create a channel through which course mates or even students in the same faculty could interact and relate with each other. This will help the students to have shared ideas. Sometimes during the course of my studies, I felt like quitting because I felt all alone. If this means is devised, it will go a long way to encourage the students.
I had fantastic experience in AIU and I will most definitely recommend it to friends and colleagues. I also look forward to pursuing my PhD programme in AIU which I believe will be more fantastic.
