r/SNHU

Do y’all say thanks to your instructors at the end of term? I would like to, but in my head dropping an email out of the blue is breaking the fourth wall.

Hello I just started the mba program in leadership and the work load is not too bad but I’m wondering if there are or were any classes that required a little less work that maybe I can double up a term and try to get done quicker. If not no big deal. I’m not trying to double up and work every night and all weekend but if there was one I could get a little break I would entertain the idea. Thank you for the assistance!

I’m starting on May 4th for cyber security and I really need to get my laptop. I was looking into a MacBook but I think that there might be better options for this program so I’m just looking for any recommendations from anyone. Thank you so much :)

My advisor scheduled me for a science class with a lab for one term (3 unit + 1 unit lab) but I want to add another class to be full-time. I'm not sure what the rules are about going over 6 units.

Has anyone taken two 3-unit classes with a 1-unit lab before?

Edit: Units as in credits. At my previous school, they called it units so sorry about the confusion!

I have just submitted my final assignment and I am done. 4 years of math, theory and bank mobile drama are in the past.

Now comes the real challenge.

Paying those student loans back.

My professor is not grading my late assignments turned in within the late policy period per SNHU.

I understand that they have an extension degrade these assignments, and I had to email earlier in this semester twice in order to get my latest assignments graded.

I still have assignments from 4–2 to now that have not been graded even after emailing to which I received no response.

I did email my advisor who asked me if I submitted within the policy., And I did, but I currently have an F when I should have at least a B.

The professor does not reply to emails. I guess I should email my advisor and email again…? Has anyone else experienced this?

I have him for FIN450 next term and am debating whether I need to move this class to next term because his rate my professor page is...not great. Wondering if anyone has experience with him?

I recieved a letter in the mail today saying I owe them $1026 when a) I've never even signed up and b) I've never even been to their website, everything on the letter seems official though not entirely sure what to do with it other than just ignore it

Edit: Got in contact with the financial department and they'd said I'll hear back from them in 7-10 days from their fraud department so hopefully it gets all sorted out, thanks for the help!

Finished my last discussion post for PHL260 just last night. So glad this one is over. It wasn't even a difficult class. I learned stuff, but the assignments weren't written very clearly (at least clear enough for me, maybe that's my problem). Maybe it's the beginning stages of burnout? This one was tough, and I'm looking forward to almost 2 weeks of time off!

TL;DR:

Transferred to CSULA but got almost no financial aid and now owe $3.6k. Took a semester off. Considering either going back (now that I qualify for full aid) and overloading credits, or switching to an online school to finish faster. Not sure which is the better/cheaper option. Looking for advice

Hey everyone, I could really use some advice on what my next steps should be to finish my bachelor’s.

My college path has been kind of all over the place due to financial issues and timing problems. I transferred from community college to a CSU (Fall 2025) after finishing my AA and came in with junior standing. But my FAFSA situation got messed up, and I was only offered about $300 in aid as an in-state student. Tuition ended up being way more than I could afford, so I didn’t take out loans or pay it. Now I owe about $3.6k to the school.

So far I’ve completed:

AA degree (3.9 GPA, over 60 credits)

1 semester at CSULA (12 credits, straight As)

I took Spring 2026 off because of all this.

I’ve been considering switching to an online school (like SNHU) and just paying out of pocket to finish as quickly as possible. But I’m worried my credits won’t transfer fully, and I won’t actually be able to finish within a year like I was hoping and I’d be in way more debt.

I recently filed FAFSA for Fall 2026 and my SAI is 0, so I’m expecting to receive full aid this time. Now I’m wondering if it makes more sense to:

Go back to my current CSU and try to overload credits to catch up

Or switch to an online program that might be more flexible but potentially slower/less predictable with transfer credits

I’m also planning to meet with an advisor, but I wanted to hear from people who’ve been in similar situations.

Main goals:

Finish as fast as reasonably possible

Minimize debt

Avoid wasting credits/time

What would you do in my position?

Hello,

I paid for the required book "Tech+ CertMaster Learn CompTIA." Is there a way to download it to access it when we're offline? I don't see an option for this. I would also like the option to listen to the book when I'm on the go but unfortunately I don't see an option for this either. Please help. Thanks!

I shattered my wrist and broke my arm in two places. I am a 3rd-year, full-time student, age 55, raising my 1-year-old grandson. This has put me in a spiral. Does anyone know if there is still help available for us students? My GPA is 3.45, and I want to be able to keep concentrating on my education, but not having food in the house is scary. I have applied for emergency FS, but that's a process, and I have an appointment for WIC, again, a process.

Any information is greatly appreciated!
