Is Rushmore University who is unaccredated institution one of those many diploma mill graduate school?

Question

Ruhmore University is offering postgraduate, non-traditional, distance learning.

Answer 1

I did consider going into this particular school since I was looking for a distance learning school. If your focus is merely learning skills for personal development then I suggest you can take up Rushmore. Especially since you are going to be in charge of how intense your studies will be (since it is an onine course).

However, if you are looking to leverage Rushmore's degree to boost your career in the corporate world, then it may not be such a good idea. Not a lot of corporations accept people with these unaccredited degrees, more so an online degree.

Answer 2

Not necessarily. Judging from the website it seems "legit" in the sense that it is not a diploma mill because it has an "edu" adress, but if it is a unaccredited institution, I wouldn't bother trying to get a diploma with them because most employers won't look highly into a graduate degree from an unknown college.
