Default Thought about changing my school

So the school I'm attending right now has some issues with their flight department. And I have thought about transfering my credits to Embry Riddle and go to one of their satellite campus/ online classes.

I am wondering has anyone had experience with Embry Riddle's satellite/ online classes? A friend of mine said a lot of people do not like it but I'd like to hear more opinions.

Thanks!

I did the satellite campus at McConnell AFB. It worked great. Online wasn't an option back then, but they did have correspondence options you could do there too. I mostly went to actual classes. Aviation insurance was the best outside class. Banged that one out it 2 weeks...

You can get credit for ratings and experience. Overall it was good. The only downside was the lack of the traditional college life you'd get at a 'normal' college since most people were mil, or older, and all working full-time.
