I feel like the difference lies in that Warwick (and some other UK universities who do the same thing, including my own) do still have a relatively high barrier to entry that sets them apart from the American for-profits.
Not to say that Warwick & other institutions aren't as for-profit as places like Corinthians, but they definitely manage to get away with it by still maintaining academic excellence.
