Unaccredited schools- all degree mills??

[Virtual Bison]

Which are the bogus accredited schools and why?

Which good, unaccredited schools were denied accreditation because of politics?

Yes, I'm sure politics can enter into the accreditation question. But so can the academic validity of the school in question, its finances, etc. It's complicated.

The school of which I am most familiar is Kennedy-Western. That was an extremely successful college which emphasised business and engineering programs. And the accreditation mafia shot the works to bring it down. I believe that there are many others which got thrown under a bus as well. There are a number of others which get a bad rap even though they are challenging to students. I believe that Breyer State University is one such school. Maybe American InterContinental University though I believe it is now accredited. Rocheville University seems to be a popular school at the moment but I cannot say whether or not its legitimate. The accreditation mafia likes to bash it but knowing how those assholes opperate they might be picking on it because its making money.

Schools whic are substandard and accredited are rather numerous. I attended PCCI and got a certificate in an area. This school is now called Ashworth College. It is accredited and yadda yadda yadda but the correspondence course I took was extremely easy. A lot of the for profit online schools have gotten bad reviews from various students. I believe that Charter Oak School which awards degrees through examination is not all that great. I am sure there are others on this board who can tell you more.
