Can someone tell me if these accredations are worth while ?

Question

I want to go to a school called Mt Sierra College in Monrovia , CA to get a bachelors degree in Information Technology with a concentration in Information Security. I believe this is a trade school and it is very expensive. Here are the accredations the school has : Accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges of Technology (ACCSCT), Arlington, VA

Approved as a degree-granting institution by the Bureau for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education (BPPVE), Sacramento, CA

Authorized by the U.S. Department of Education to offer Federal Loans and Grants to qualified students, Washington, D.C.

Are these accredations good enough and should I enroll in the school. How do I know if it is a good school or not . What should I be looking at ?

Answer 1

Sorry, but if this school is located in California and offers bachelors degrees, they should be accredited by WASC (The Western Association of Schools and Colleges), which is the regional accrediting organization for this part of the country.

I looked on the school's website, and there are a couple of really worrisome things on there. First of all, the school is only 17 years old, and it was founded by the current President and CEO of the university. He does not have a Ph.D. The only other information I can find for him is that he taught at DeVry, which doesn't sound like an adequate background for a university President! I don't see anything on the site about a Board of Regents, who would control the behavior of the President. There is also nothing on the site about who does the teaching - this is important, and if it isn't listed, you wonder if they are really qualified. I also went onto the site to look at their business program, since as a business professor, I know something about these things. The classes listed don't look terrible, but the information about what this would prepare you for is COMPLETELY off. There is no way you would be hired as a sales manager or a management consultant right out of a college, especially one like this. I would really think twice before enrolling here.

Dude this skank sounds like a real piece of work. All she wants is the ***k and thats all she'll get for the rest of her life if she doesn't change her ways. Obviously she knows what she wants. I say, don't sleep with her for a few weeks. if she's really interested in U(which she probabaly isnt ) then she will wait and keep calling you. when she see's however , that u arent giving just physical feelings she will find it somewhere else. u guys arent married, so she can do whatever with any1, which, as far as the rest of the neighbourhood is concerned, makes her a whore. And unpaid whore at that. YOU ARENT PAYING ARE YOU???
