Walden University is a highly accredited institution that functions through motivating altruistic individuals by furthering their pursuits in academia. The faculty and staff at Walden achieve this goal via intensive efforts geared toward personalized attention and exceptional instruction aimed at bolstering far-reaching knowledge of each chosen field; engendering each student with a comprehensive vision of their future.

Do you have any tips for prospective students?

Each student at Walden should have, or develop, a basic knowledge of current internet capabilities, and have a general understanding of Internet access and etiquette. Further, Walden students must be self-motivated and willing to dedicate at least an hour each weeknight to their online studies. Posting early and often is the best way to achieve an excellent grade at Walden while they guide you through the process of achieving your very best.

Do you find there’s enough academic rigor at your school?

Walden will set a fair and stimulating pace; it is up to you to keep up! Those of you looking for an easy A may as well not apply as Walden is for diverse and intelligent students seeking a broader understanding of themselves and the world around them. Walden University is setting the bar on distance learning and you could be as proud as I am to say that you helped to set that standard.

Describe the dorm life at your college.

N/A; live at home and attend a globally enrolling school! Walden University is an online Undergraduate and Graduate College perfect for the working man or woman seeking a higher path for success. Walden offers both certificate and degree programs for personal and professional achievement in a globally diverse and currently relevant atmosphere.

Describe the food and dining at your college.

Eat whatever you like while you study online in your pajamas! Online education is the perfect venue for working professionals, single parents and the elderly or disabled. Imagine attaining your highest and finest good: all from the comfort of your home.

What’s there to do for fun at your college?

Attaining personal and professional excellence is not for the faint of heart , or the weak of will. However, learning from a distance has its benefits; such as maintaining social status while impressing your friends with your academic prowess. Go ahead and show off your smarts; attend Walden!

Do you feel you’re getting value for the money you’re spending on college?

I have a Bachelor's degree in Health Services Administration and graduated Magna Cum Laude from a local College in my area; however, in this difficult and highly competitive economy, I was unable to gain employment in any field until I started working toward my Master's at Walden. In fact, Walden seemed to open many doors for me as I began speaking confidently and passionately about my field of study to employers. Walden has changed my perspective about the job market and myself as I am now gainfully employed in my field of choice and looking forward to the future.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

It is highly unusual that graduating classes know each other by first and last name basis, have debated each other and really come to like one another without ever having seen each other. At Walden, one really looks forward to making connections that last and can be conceptualized via fiber optic connection worldwide.

Which types of students will excel at your college?

Walden University is great for all students; particularly for international and regional students who may seek unusual, or otherwise unattainable programs to bolster their professional endeavors. In addition, Walden is the ideal institution for working professionals and single parents.

Are you involved in any clubs or activities?

While there are no traditional clubs, Walden offers an extensive online format with student to student and faculty to student support via email and/or chat. You are never alone at Walden, while support has your back, current students are always there to help.

How would you describe campus safety? Do you feel safe on campus?

You never have to worry about safety. Walden's online format offers a completely violence free atmosphere. Make the right choice and seek a higher education.
