How much do these degrees and certificates cost?
I hear that these programs are overpriced. What are the prices for these degrees and certificates.
"Steer clear for your own sanity"
Admissions Counselors at 2U perform work much closer to fraud telemarketing than "counseling." The volume bleeds the human element out of every phone call because you will constantly be striving to hit metrics and enrollment goals. As an AC, you... — read more

BEWARE OF A QUICKLY SINKING SHIP
I don't even know where to start but the TLDR = DO NOT WORK HERE. The company profits off of putting students into large amounts of debt when they could get an equally valuable degree from anywhere else for half of the price. They only promote... — read more

Just curious.
Middle managers are only slowing the work down
Times are tough as it is, but I’ve never seen a bunch of people that are slowing the work down and hurting their very own company more than the middle managers at 2U. It’s like they fell down from Mars or something, only caring about their ego and... — read more
Don’t think that turning on your coworkers will make your job any safer.
I enjoyed working for this company, but I think we can all agree that I has become an ill environment in which none of us are safe, which results with many of us turning on each other. I believe most of us got it through our heads now, that working... — read more
2U doesn't care about its employees
At least when it comes to admissions. We are the most important cog in this company - we ensure its revenue exists in the first place. And yet, we are nothing but metrics to those on top. And those metrics are becoming rediculous and impossible to... — read more
Management needs to go!
None of what is happening right now is the fault of employees. People I work with are among the smartest I have ever met and they all know how to do their jobs. But it's really hard to do your job properly and get good results when our leadership... — read more
A lot of admissions leadership has resigned
Many admissions leaders who weren't laid off have already resigned. There is no leadership left, not that it was good anyway.
GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN, PLEASE!!
More layoffs are coming, I swear. Get out now and find a better place to work. They're out there!!

Already hearing about a second round of layoffs
Not sure who it will affect. Be careful.
MD Warn Notices and 2U
https://www.dllr.state.md.us/employment/warn.shtml Nothing shows up here because less than 33% of the workforce was laid off. They are keeping numbers below the line so shareholders don't get scared. More to come.
What's the severance?
Who knows?
100 Layoffs - All Upper Management Gone
Why does not the CEO resign?
It has started
My mom joined in 2010 and was laid off today. She's crushed. This company is going nowhere, I wish you all the best but I am skeptical. Good luck.
Potential Fraud at 2U!
This place is a sinking ship. Investors are suing them. I think it looks like Enron. Beware!

Sounds like only Student Success and Admissions being affected

2U does not hire minorities from PG County. It brings in Caucasians from GW University and from UM College Park to fudge hiring practices.
2U does not promote anyone that is not related to someone higher up on the company or from a liberal upper East Coast private university. 95% of company is from the Union. They don't hire anyone from the Confederate states.
