Cool thread! 
I'm currently working on a Master's in Public Administration with a concentration in Health Policy at American Military University (NA & RA). I choose this school because it had the program I wanted that could be completed quickly at a fantastic price - $250 per credit hour. I will graduate in August of 2009 (with the help of 3 classes of transfer credit). I am also set up to start my Master's in Social Work at Ohio State in September 2009 - hopefully I can add more about that later. My ultimate goal is a government job in social services policy administration.
American Public University System (AMU & APU)
First, there is no difference between the schools. The classes are exactly the same and people enrolled in AMU and APU are in classes together.
I love the fact that you have a nice selection of classes within each program. There is usually something for everyone. This helps make the classes more enjoyable
The curriculum is engaging, class conversation is good. The classes are not easy but the work is doable. There is a lot of reading but the textbooks are enjoyable! *Definitely pick something you're interested in for graduate studies.*
The customer service is great! I've asked many questions and received helpful answers. There is a forum where you can hang out with your classmates, network, and even get help from faculty. It's been a really good experience for me so far. No school is perfect, but I don't have anything negative to say about APUS.
