ASSOCIATION OF PRIVATE COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES APCU

[Herbert Spencer]

Great catch, ham!

APCU is listed among the "Unrecognized and Fake Agencies for Online College Accreditation" at GetEducated.com, the "Diploma Mill Police."

Here is a list of 30-plus distance learning accrediting agencies that claim to oversee a variety of online and distance learning college and university degree programs. Most "accredit" diploma mills or degree mills.

Consumers Beware - NONE of these accrediting agencies are recognized as college accreditors in the U.S. by the Council on Higher Education Accreditation or the U.S. Department of Education. As such, colleges claiming “accreditation” by these agencies are not widely accepted as valid providers of higher education online and should be approached with great caution if online college credibility is important to you.

Remember - Most diploma mills and degree mills are accredited -- but by fake or phony agencies that the degree mills themselves own and operate!
