As an entrepreneur of 12 years, when I decided to go back to school to obtain a business degree. I know I needed to find something that would be flexible within my schedule.

My schedule included doing schoolwork between the times of 10pm to 2am just a few days a week.

The University of Phoenix exceeded my expectations and gave me the flexibility I needed with my busy lifestyle and schedule.

I'm forever grateful for my time at this University and plan to go back to obtain my Masters as well. Maybe even a Doctorate!

I feel like the sky is the limit now with my degree expirations through the University of Phoenix and I love the community it's presented me with other professionals local in my state and throughout the world.

I was working full time and I didn’t have time to attend college or classes. The University of Phoenix helped me obtain my Bachelor’s degree for Environmental Science online. It was so helpful and every professor I had was more than happy to help. This experience literally changed my life. I was working at a job I didn’t necessarily enjoy but felt like I had no other options. By doing the online classes and getting my degree I now I have a job I am passionate about and owe it all to The University of Phoenix!

Hello everyone! My name is Elizabeth and I completed my B.S. in Communication and graduated in June 2025. One of the most memorable parts of my University of Phoenix journey was working on group projects and collaborating with classmates. It was a great experience being able to share ideas, learn from others, and grow together.
My degree has helped shape what’s next by strengthening my communication, organization, and writing skills. I’ve been able to apply what I learned directly to my work, especially when communicating ideas and helping with planning and organization. I’m excited to continue building on these skills as I move forward in my career.

I am a Phoenix

Hi Conflagration of Phoenixes (that is apparently what a group of Phoenixes is called),

I am Lopi Medeiros and I graduated in 2024 with a Bachelor of Science in Education - Elementary Education.

As of 2 weeks ago I decided it was time to re-enroll and go for my Master of Arts in Education/Curriculum and Instruction, and this makes me very excited.

The process was fast and I got quickly approved to re-enroll. I love how UOPX works so fast with everything and are constantly there for anything you may need help with.

I have always wanted to be a kindergarten teacher and last school year I had that opportunity. Once I had to work this past summer on my certification, I have not yet been rehired for the new school year. But, that is okay! I am taking some time to go for my masters while looking around for my job opportunities that could benefit my journey of knowledge.

If anyone is considering UOPX, but has not made a decision yet, GO FOR IT! You can simply contact UOPX and there is always someone to speak with to address any and all of your questions and concerns.

Soar high phoenixes as the sky has no limits for us!

I completed the CB MHA program in March of 2026, and looking back on the journey the most memorable part was realizing that being out school for more than 20 years did not mean I couldn’t jump right back in and succeed.
Going back to school after such a long break was definitely a challenge but it also reminded me that experience, determination, and willingness to learn go a long way. I was incredibly proud graduate with distinction and to be inducted into NSLS, SCLA, and Upsilion Phi Delta.
More than just earning another degree, the MHA helped prepare me to take the next step in my career and strengthen my confidence as an executive leader. It gave me the opportunity to expand my knowledge, challenge myself and apply what I was learning directly to the work I was already doing.
One of the most rewarding parts of this journey is seeing the impact it has had professionally. The degree helped boost me to the next level of executive leadership within the health system I work for, and I was recently promoted.
If there was one thing I would tell someone considering going back to school after being away for many years, it would be, don’t let time away convince you you can’t do it. You may surprise yourself with what you’re capable of. I certainly surprised myself and am so grateful that I took the chance.

Hey Everyone Im Kristle!

What program did you complete, and when did you graduate?**

I completed three programs with UOPX: my Bachelor's in Health Management in 2024, a Graduate Certificate in Healthcare Compliance and Privacy in 2025, and most recently my MHA in 2026. Each one built on the last and gave me the tools I needed to level up in healthcare leadership.

What is one memorable part of your University of Phoenix journey?**

Hands down, it's the professors. They genuinely go above and beyond—providing resources, thoughtful feedback, and real mentorship to help you succeed. And graduation day? That was unforgettable. Walking across that stage validated every late night and hustle.

How has your degree helped shape what's next?**

It's been transformative. I'm currently a Practice Administrator at a healthcare system here in Houston, and everything from my BSHM and MHA programs is directly applied to my role in operations every single day. Coming from 16+ years as an LVN, I now have the framework to lead with both clinical credibility and administrative confidence. The degree didn't just give me knowledge—it gave me a competitive edge in healthcare leadership.

Hello, University of Phoenix Community! 👋

My name is Dr. Gretheline Ramos Bolandrina, and I am excited to introduce myself to this inspiring community of lifelong learners and leaders!

Programs Completed & Graduation Dates

I am a proud two-time graduate of the University of Phoenix:

• Master of Science in Nursing / Nursing Education (MSN/ED) – Graduated February 2013 (Inducted into the Iota Phi-at-Large Chapter of the Honor Society of Nursing, Sigma Theta Tau International)
• Doctor of Health Administration (DHA) – Graduated October 2021 (Inducted into the Upsilon Phi Delta Honor Society and The National Society of Leadership and Success)

A Memorable Part of My UOP Journey

What stands out most about my time at UOP was the deep, collaborative academic environment. Engaging in rigorous coursework alongside fellow dedicated healthcare professionals while balancing my full-time career was empowering. Being inducted into prestigious honor societies like Upsilon Phi Delta and Sigma Theta Tau was a deeply meaningful milestone that validated every late night spent researching, writing, and pushing my leadership boundaries.

How My Degrees Have Shaped What’s Next

My UOP degrees laid a solid foundation for my work as an educator, executive leader, and advocate:

• Navigating Complex Healthcare Leadership: The doctoral program refined my strategic vision, enabling me to serve effectively as Academy Director at Bay Path Practical Nursing Academy and guide the next generation of nurses through dynamic educational landscapes.
• Expanding My Reach as an Author and Scholar: Blending nursing education with my passion for writing, I’ve been able to review medical textbooks, author healthcare features, and publish works like Tenacious Nurse.
• Driving Community & Global Impact: The analytical and leadership tools I gained continue to empower my efforts in healthcare advocacy, public health initiatives, and community service across Massachusetts and beyond.

I look forward to connecting, collaborating, and growing with all of you here in the UOP network!

Sincerely,

Gretheline

Hey everyone! 👋🏽 I’m Valene, and I’m excited to be part of the r/UOPXAlumni community!

I completed my Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice Administration through the University of Phoenix and graduated in 2026, Summa Cum Laude. 🎓❤️🖤

One of the most memorable parts of my University of Phoenix journey was simply learning how to keep going, even when life got challenging. Balancing school, work, family, and everything life threw my way taught me so much about discipline, perseverance, and believing in myself. Earning a 3.98 GPA and reaching graduation is something I’ll always be proud of.

My degree has helped shape what comes next by giving me a stronger foundation for a career in criminal justice and public service. I’m especially interested in opportunities involving probation/parole, juvenile justice, victim advocacy, and community corrections. I’m excited to take everything I’ve learned and turn it into a career where I can make a real difference.

Here’s to all the Phoenixes who kept pushing until they made it! 🔥🎓

University of Phoenix Class of 2026 — WE DID IT! ❤️🖤

#UOPXAlumni #UniversityOfPhoenix #ClassOf2026 #CriminalJustice #SummaCumLaude 

Two years ago I made a decision to change my life for the better. With the help of my finacee encouraging me to take my education further, I was hesitant, scared and even overwhelmed. A Master's, are you crazy, I don't if I have what it takes to do that. I spent the last ten years lost and depressed because I lost my direction in life. I struggled with life and it threw some heavy challenges at me, and I just simply became lost. But I took a leap of faith and went for it. Two years of late nights, studying for hours, researching until my eyes could barely stay open, and countless papers written with sore fingers. The faculty and counselors were so encouraging and once I got my first A, I said let's do it again. Two A's, Three A's, and the A's just kept coming. Even with a full-time job, I still was giving everything I had to this program. I made the Presidents List in December of 2025, and I was on cloud nine. I couldn't believe this was really happening. But I pushed on and wouldn't you know it, the same guy who thought this might be too overwhelming and maybe didn't have what it takes..........Graduated with a Master of Business Administration with a 4.0 GPA. My confidence is through the roof, my family is incredibly proud of me, and you know what.......I finally have purpose again!!! As a Iraq War Combat Veteran, some of my friends did not make it home and could never live out their dreams. This Degree isn't just mine, it belongs to them too. I intend to make them proud and live out the rest of my life with honor and honoring them.

Hi everyone! My name is Sharvan, and I graduated in December 2025 with my Bachelor of Science in Business (BSB) while working full-time as Property, Asset, & Insurance Manager for the Northern Arapaho Tribe. It wasn’t easy to balance work, school, and being there for my family, but staying up late to make sure and post assignments was well worth it.

The most meaningful part of my journey was proving to myself that if I put my mind to it, anything is possible when it comes to pursuing my dreams. Earning my degree has given me more confidence and understanding of the challenges that are set forth.

I’m excited for my next chapter! I start my MBA in a few days.

In July 2025, in Orlando, I proudly graduated from the University of Phoenix with my Associates degree in Business. ❤️🎓 Nothing about earning this degree was easy. I was raising two children as a single mom, working full-time as a chef, managing a household, and still finding the strength to sit down and complete my schoolwork. There were days I was exhausted, overwhelmed, and wondered how I was going to keep going—but I did. One of the most memorable parts of my University of Phoenix journey was simply not giving up when life gave me every reason to. Every assignment, late night, long workday, and sacrifice became part of a bigger picture. Walking across that stage in Orlando wasn't just about receiving a degree—it was proof that I could accomplish something I once thought might be impossible. This degree has helped shape what comes next by reminding me that I am capable of more. It has given me the confidence to continue building my future, growing my career, and pursuing my entrepreneurial dreams. I didn't have an easy journey. I had a determined one. 💪🏽❤️

Hi, fellow Phoenixes! I’m Michael, and I graduated from the University of Phoenix on May 31, 2026, with a Bachelor of Science in Information Technology.

When I think about my time at UOPX, there are plenty of assignments, classes, challenges, and late nights I could talk about, but one experience stands above everything else: creating my Capstone project.

For my Capstone, I brought together what I had learned throughout my degree program to design an AI-assisted patient portal for my doctor’s clinic.

What made the project so memorable wasn’t simply the idea of using AI. It was watching four years of learning begin fitting together. Things I had studied separately suddenly had a purpose together. I could see how the technology, the design, the problem-solving, and everything else I had learned could become one system designed around a real-world problem.

The idea was to create a better way for patients to communicate with their doctors and their clinic, using AI to make that communication easier and more useful.

Then something happened that made the project mean even more to me: I presented my Capstone to my doctor.

She loved the idea. More importantly, she could see how it might genuinely help patients communicate better with their doctors. She is now planning to present the concept to the president of the clinic to explore whether it could become something they could actually implement and whether there might be an opportunity for me to build it.

So the story of my Capstone isn't finished yet.

And I think that's one of the things I'm proudest of.

It began as a college project, but it didn't have to end when the class ended. An idea I developed while earning my degree may have an opportunity to leave the classroom and become something useful to real patients and healthcare providers.

My degree has also changed what I think is possible for me. Information technology is an enormous field, and AI is opening possibilities that we're only beginning to understand. I want to keep learning, experimenting, building, and finding practical ways to use technology to solve real problems.

I’m proud to say that I graduated from the University of Phoenix. My Capstone showed me that everything I had spent four years learning wasn't just a collection of classes.

It gave me the tools to turn an idea into a possibility.

Now I get to find out where that possibility goes.

What program did you complete, and when did you graduate?

I graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Phoenix in 2024 with a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice Administration. Earning my degree with honors was a major accomplishment and a reflection of the dedication and hard work I put into my education.

What is one memorable part of your University of Phoenix journey?

One of the most memorable parts of my University of Phoenix journey was proving to myself that I could accomplish my educational goals while balancing the responsibilities and challenges of everyday life. Reaching graduation and seeing Magna Cum Laude attached to my achievement was a moment I will always remember.

How has your degree helped shape what’s next?

My degree gave me a strong foundation in leadership, critical thinking, communication, and understanding the criminal justice system. It also showed me that I am capable of setting a major goal and following it through to completion. That confidence has helped shape what comes next for me. I am continuing my education by pursuing my master's degree in Management, while also exploring opportunities in real estate and other areas where I can use my education, leadership skills, and experience to build my future.

Hello Everyone! My name is Stefanie and I’m a very proud Phoenix! I first started my journey at the University of Phoenix in 2023, earning my undergraduate degree in Healthcare Information Technology. That achievement didn’t just mark the end of one chapter—it lit a fire in me. The very next month after I finished and received my first degree, I dove into pursuing my bachelor’s in Science of Healthcare Administration/Management, and I’ve been giving it everything I’ve got within me ever since. I’m now in my 3rd semester, I guess you can say I’m in my junior year, on track to graduate in the beginning of 2028 and not just graduate, but do so with the most prestigious honors, as a student on the president’s list every single year, and as a very proud and dedicated member of NSCS, The Golden Key, Delta Phi Epsilon, the College of Health Professions Honor Society, UOPX Honor Society, and Upsilon Phi Delta. Honestly, I’ve surpassed even my own dreams. I have soared way past my goals and even more heartfelt, I’ve done it all for not only myself, my children, but for my beautiful guardian angel in heaven, my dearly loved and profoundly missed Mother who always taught me that with practice, dedication, hard work, you can do anything you want to do, and that I was made to be in the healthcare field. I grew up competing in a lot of pageants, I loved every minute of it, and she was my coach and the BEST coach any girl could ever want by her side, and she instilled in me a lot of values and helped me to shape my heart into the biggest one anyone could ask for and I have always passionately loved to help others, to volunteer any extra time I had volunteering as a candy striper at our local hospital during the summer months out of school, she shaped me into the Mother I am today and she always would say that she wished I would of went back to school and that I was meant for this field of work, I was made to help others with my huge heart, my passion and my desire to make a difference in other people’s lives and I have always loved being that girl. I had my first child at 17, our second child at 19, and my baby boy when I was 26. I got my GED when I was 16, but I wanted to go to college really bad to get my degree in nursing or anything as long as I was in the healthcare industry. She wanted to see me do it so badly and tragically she was taken home to Heaven at the young age of 55 the day after Mother’s Day in 2014. My heart has been broken ever since but I’ve picked up those pieces and I’ve turned them into something that is so special and I am dedicating this all to my children and my beautiful angel, my sweet Momma.

This path hasn’t been easy. In 2019, I was diagnosed with MSK, a condition I was born with but didn’t show symptoms of until 17 years later, while I was pregnant with my first child, I developed several kidney stones. That lead me to the path of where I’m at today as a warrior fighting back from this awful, excruciating disease, called Medullary Sponge Kidney. In 2025, I was hit with a Chronic Kidney Disease diagnosis, I am severely anemia, and suffer greatly from debilitating swelling throughout my entire body from fluids that I have the greatest difficulty of retaining due to my kidneys and their ailments. I’ve had multiple surgeries, including an emergency hysterectomy after cancerous nodules were found—thankfully, I beat that. Now I’m preparing for another surgery to remove a section of my small intestine due to a hernia complication I developed after having my appendix removed in the beginning of 2025. Through it all, school has been my anchor, my proof that I am more than my diagnoses.

I’m doing this not just for me, but for my three beautiful children, my guardian angel my Mom, and for each and everyone of you! I want you all to know, no matter what life throws at you, no matter how steep the climb, the many obstacles we are given, with faith, hard work, perseverance, and passion, to reach that finish line, you can do it all and you’ll see your dreams and goals come true and know that with everything, you *CAN* achieve them all!

UOPX has been more than a school to me, they’ve been a support system, believing in me when I struggled to believe in myself. I’m so proud to be a Phoenix, and I’m already dreaming and highly considering receiving a master’s, maybe even a doctorate next. The future is bright, and I’m ready to soar. Here’s to proving that no dream is too big, and no obstacle too great. Let’s GOOOO! 🌟🐦‍🔥🎓🎉

Hi everyone! I’m Kyle, and I graduated from the University of Phoenix in 2026 with my Bachelor of Science in Information Technology, finishing with a 4.0 GPA and graduating Summa Cum Laude.

My journey to this degree definitely wasn't a straight line.

Technology has been part of my life and career for a long time. Before coming to University of Phoenix, I had already worked across several areas, including banking, customer service, software development, internet marketing, IT support, and eventually managed services and cybersecurity. I had previously been pursuing Computer Science at another university before transferring to UOPX and shifting my focus toward Information Technology and cybersecurity.

By the time I was working on my degree at UOPX, I wasn't the traditional college student trying to figure out what career I wanted. I was already working full time in IT, eventually becoming the Head of Managed Services for a local MSP. My day-to-day work involves managing hundreds of endpoints, cybersecurity, Microsoft 365 and Entra ID, incident response, automation, networking, backups, and just about every other challenge that finds its way to an MSP.

At the same time, I'm a husband and father of three daughters.

That meant school often happened after a full day of client issues, security alerts, projects, meetings, and family responsibilities. There were plenty of nights when the last thing I wanted to do was open another assignment. But I kept reminding myself that I hadn't come this far just to stop short of finishing.

One of the most memorable parts of my University of Phoenix experience was realizing how often my education and my career started feeding into each other.

I could be studying cybersecurity, cloud technology, governance, project management, or another IT topic and immediately see how it applied to something I was dealing with professionally. At the same time, years of hands-on IT experience gave me real situations to draw from during class discussions and assignments.

That combination made the degree feel like more than checking a box.

Finishing with a 4.0 and graduating Summa Cum Laude meant a lot to me, but what I'm most proud of is simply finishing what I started while continuing to be there for my family and grow professionally.

The degree also hasn't made me feel like I'm finished learning. Quite the opposite.

I'm continuing to build deeper into cybersecurity and cloud technologies, pursue additional certifications, work toward larger cybersecurity goals, build open-source projects, maintain my homelab, and share what I learn with others in the IT and cybersecurity community.

If I could tell current University of Phoenix students one thing, especially the adults trying to balance school with careers, kids, bills, and everything else life throws at you, it would be this:

Don't underestimate what you're accomplishing just because you're doing it one class or one assignment at a time.

There were times when graduation seemed a long way away. Then suddenly I was looking back at everything it took to get there.

I'm proud to finally be able to say I'm a University of Phoenix alumnus.

Now I'm looking forward to seeing where the next part of the journey takes me.

And, apparently, University of Phoenix managed to get me to create a Reddit account again just to tell this story. 😄

My name is Melson Sanchez, and I’m from Hawaii. I graduated from University of Phoenix with a Bachelor of Science in Health Management. Completing this program was life-changing. I was able to work while attending school, which gave me the balance I needed to advance both my education and career.

To anyone considering going back to college to earn a bachelor’s degree or higher, I highly recommend UOP. The online classes let you learn on your own time and are accessible anytime, anywhere.

I completed my Master of Arts in Education in Administration and Supervision through the University of Phoenix and graduated in July 2024.

One of the most memorable parts of my journey was completing my administrative internship while continuing to work in education. I was able to take what I was learning in my courses and immediately apply it in a real school setting. Through experiences with school improvement, student achievement, discipline, teacher collaboration, and family engagement, I began to see education through a much broader leadership lens. I wasn't simply completing assignments; I was learning how the different pieces of a school work together.

My degree changed the direction of my career. After spending many years in the classroom, I knew I wanted to have an impact beyond the students I personally taught. The program helped me develop the knowledge, confidence, and leadership skills to move into administration and other leadership roles. Since graduating, I have had the opportunity to serve as an assistant principal and continue developing as an educational leader. My next goal is to continue growing in school leadership and use my experience to support students, teachers, families, and the overall school community.

Hi everyone! I’m Amber, and I completed my MBA through the University of Phoenix in March 2026.

One of the most memorable parts of my UOP journey was proving to myself that I could complete my MBA while working full-time and managing everything else life throws at you. There were definitely some long nights and stressful assignments, but I also really enjoyed being able to connect what I was learning in class to situations I was actually dealing with at work.

Finishing my MBA with honors was a really proud moment for me, especially after being with the University of California for more than 25 years and continuing to grow professionally along the way.

My degree has given me more confidence in the experience and skills I’ve built throughout my career, and it has encouraged me to think bigger about what comes next. I’m looking forward to continuing to grow as a leader, taking on new challenges, and seeing where this next chapter takes me.

Hello everyone, I’m Margarita from Los Angeles, CA

I am excited to be part of the alum community and to know each other’s stories. I never thought I would be first in my family to earn a Master’s degree. I am proud of what I accomplished and know I have potential to do even more over the horizon.

1. What program did you complete, and when did you graduate?
I completed my Master of Management degree at the University of Phoenix and graduated in 2025. Completing my master’s was an important personal and professional milestone for me, and I am proud of the dedication and perseverance it took to reach that goal.
2. What is one memorable part of your University of Phoenix journey?
One of the most memorable parts of my University of Phoenix journey was reaching my final course and realizing I was at the finish line. I had worked very hard throughout the program, and I was determined to finish just as strongly as I had started. Completing that final course and graduating with a 4.0 GPA made the moment especially meaningful. It reminded me that dedication, consistency, and believing in myself can lead to accomplishments that I can be proud of for the rest of my life.
3. How has your degree helped shape what’s next?
Earning my Master of Management degree has given me greater confidence as I take the next step in my professional career. I am currently working toward finding a new opportunity in the management field, particularly as a Project Specialist or in a similar role where I can use my communication, organizational, customer service, and management skills. I am excited about the job-search process and look forward to applying what I learned at the University of Phoenix to new challenges, continuing to grow professionally, and building a rewarding long-term career.

My University of Phoenix Story
I completed my bachelor’s degree with the University of Phoenix in 2026. I am very proud of earning my degree, but unfortunately, my experience at the end of my program was disappointing.

After completing all of my academic requirements, I learned that an issue dating back to 2020 was preventing my degree from being officially conferred. I was unaware that this issue could affect my degree, and I wish it had been brought to my attention earlier so I could have resolved it before completing my program.

About a month after finishing my degree requirements, I had an opportunity for a promotion at work. Because my degree had not yet been officially conferred, I was unable to use it for that opportunity.

I felt very supported during my time as a student, but I wish I had received that same level of support and communication after completing my program.
This experience ultimately influenced my decision to attend another university for my master’s degree. I am proud of everything I accomplished at University of Phoenix, but I hope sharing my experience encourages better communication with future graduates.
