None of the professors are researchers, and none understand research design or statistical analysis. They will force you to get a third-party editor and statistics consultant to help with your dissertation. At the same time, they are your most prominent critics that hinder your progress.
Overall 1.1
Alliant is far and away the worst school I have ever gone to. In fact, it is the worst organization of any kind I have ever seen. It is a complete and total academic disgrace and one of the worst experiences of my entire life. The instructors are horrible and the students are incredibly stupid. Stay away from this terrible place. Absolute ripoff.
Overall 1.2
Stay away from this school and save your money. The professors lack experience in clinical and research. They will flex their muscles to make your life miserable to compensate for their shortcomings. My boss overheard one of the lectures, and she couldn't stop laughing at their made-up nonsense. Alliant is the butt of the joke at my clinic.

Horrible school that doesn't work with their students. Once they get your money, they forget about you.
Overall 1.8
Internet would fail, the A/C was busted, bug problems, no student store, only one working water fountain, religious undertone in lectures, accepted anyone w/out taking psy. prep. courses. Led to non-psy background students to be ill-prepared for courses. Little diversity edu. Most prof. were racist, unstructured, rude, & unhelpful.
