Definitely failed. Whether they are unscrupulous or not remains to be seen. Looks like a lot of people potentially have gotten stung. Let's hope refunds or teachouts at no extra cost are on the horizon.
BTW, just how worthless is the Better Business Bureau? Right up until CCNH went out of business the BBB was touting them as "A+" rated.
"Information in this BBB Reliability Report is believed reliable, but not guaranteed as to accuracy." The secret seems to be that instead of screwing one or two students at a time and having them complain, you screw everybody all at once, take the money and run. They ought to change their disclaimer to "Information in this report is less than useless. Don't waste your time."
