This "university" is on the cusp of losing its accreditation in a number of places. They have a bad reputation for preying on under qualified students who otherwise couldn't get in to college, taking their money and dumping them.
It is particularly pervasive in gi bill students.
Their business model though profitable has dubious ethical traits to it.

- brianbreslin 14y agoThey accept students who aren't READY for college level education. Kids who don't have the basis to be able to learn.
- ctdonath 14y agoUnready is one thing. Unwilling is something else - and seriously underdiscussed.
