Great experience
I am an online student. I love my classes and teachers. I give five stars to the staff in my area of study and the administrative staff, but I can not vouch for the rest. I would recommend the online at Franklin University for anyone looking to do a complete online program. I am very satisfied.

The experience at Franklin has been positive. Instructors are knowledgeable and willing to help. Great for non traditional students. I would recommend Franklin to other students. Totally online programs are great for non traditional students.
Great experience
I'm happy I am getting my BS and moving forward to my master's and maybe more. A little about me: I am a disabled vet. I was in the Army National Guard for six years until I was honorably discharged from a basic training injury. I was a very physical person working on road construction and laying asphalt. With six surgeries and a four-lead spinal cord stimulator, I am finally trying to get back into the work field. I am a freshman at Franklin University working toward my BS degree in Forensic Accounting and Minor in Analysis. For my science class, we are learning about surveys and how to graph the information, and our final paper will be on our 11-week study.
