Comes now St. James Business College (with a first in new school marketing)

Ad in USA Today today for "SJBC" which turns out to be St. James Business College, addresses in Washington DC and London. www.sjbc-edu.info

While I am naturally suspicious of people who put an "edu" into their URL in that way, this one looks better than most USA Today advertisers. They say they will be applying to DETC as soon as they are the necessary two years old. Half their doctorate-holding faculty (one of the two) has the degree from California Coast.

Oddly, in their warning not to deal with degree mills, they actually include a live link to the site of phony Rochville University so we can see what a degree mill looks like. A real skeptic might wonder if that could be the real reason for this ad?

 

Their accreditation page could use a little editing.

"They may claim to be accredited, but these orgainzation are not apprroved"

"Sample of :Dimploa Mill"


11 Faculty Members (Including the adjuncts):

From their US about us page.

So where are they getting their authority to offer degrees? Certainly not from the UK. Their office in Washington, DC?
