Why do people attend "for profit" universities?
#10
There aren't too many regionally accredited for-profits that are as reasonably priced as APUS. That makes me wonder why do the other for-profits need to charge so much. APUS hires more full-time and doctoral-level instructors than the average for-profit school. I've heard that their full-time instructors also make over $50k while the other for-profits heavily depend on master-level adjuncts who are paid the equivalent of $10 an hour.
