    History of “Forgiveness”
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------




    In 1995 when Evaluations and Management International, Inc. (doing business as CULA/City University Los Angeles), elected to “no longer be a California institution,” it forgave the State’s oversight agency (now called Bureau of Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education), as it had earlier ‘forgiven’ the California State Bar (for “awarding two years of college recognition to any 26- year-old who could past a simple “equivalency test.”_ “The Bureau” was forgiven for (1) Issuing an Authorization Certificate which contained a disclaimer: “...is not accreditation...and does not imply accreditation.”_ (2) For informing the public, over an 18-month period, that “City University Los Angeles IS NOT” authorized/approved when all the time, The Bureau meant “Century University” (the likeness being both schools began with the letter “C”)._ (3) For forcing academic institutions to adopt a “Refund Policy” based on “number of hours of classroom instruction” (a norm applied ONLY to trade and technical/vocational courses!)_ (4) For sending out unqualified “Visitation Team” members who were incapable of “...reading, thinking or rendering anything close to an academic assessment.”__
    (5) So blatantly operating in “a conflict of interest” as to force private schools “out of California,” including the University of Phoenix, now America’s largest private school!_ Finally (6) For more than two years running, using the logo of CULA© on another school’s listing!

    At least the initials are not "CULO". That would be a naughty word in Spanish.

    From the website:

    "The institution has had, but has not used in recent years a non-profit bulk mail permit."

    I don't see how you can beat that.

    Their FAQ is also good. Amongst other questions,

    Great! I always wanted a masters degree to complement my BS in Levitation.
