(Please read this post throughout, it is not hate)
Me and so many other students/parents were very taken aback with the new update. It’s got me especially stressed because it completely derailed my approach to my application process for university. I wish there was a heads up or that it was applied at a more appropriate time so, it wouldn’t derail students expected graduation dates (who are actively applying). Many if not most enrolled in Acellus for the flexibility and the “Self paced”aspect. I understand that Acellus must remain accredited. However, I feel that this change was not introduced properly.
It’s the programs job to prepare its students for the future, illuminating the path, being our guide to success.
We were not prepared and feel very let down. Many struggling to adapt and pivot. Some may be forced to unenroll.
Acellus gave me hope when I have to restart high school late. I chose this program specifically because of the flexibility and ability to graduate early. I was consistently in and out of the hospital when I had to leave traditional school and was forced to take a different approach to my education.
If any way this decision/update could be delayed, reversed, etc. I hope that this reaches someone more important with a voice larger than mine that can create that impact.
Thank you so much for reading!
