Ross University degrees not legal in Oregon

Caught in an awkward position with his vendetta against Berne University, Alan with his back against the wall clings to his last straw – drag Ross University into the brawl and it would give the impression that he (Alan) is being neutral, given that Berne and Ross University (Vet School) are the only private schools in Saint Kitts which are fully accredited by the Ministry of Education.

Subject: Please Advise - Ross University

Dear Sir:

I have noticed that degrees from Berne University are not valid for use in Oregon. I would like to attend Ross University (veterinary school) in St. Kitts, however, I was informed that this institution is chartered and accredited by the Ministry of Education (St. Kitts). My question is : Would a degree from Ross University be acceptable for use in Orgeon?

Thanks,
S. Ibbott

“Ross University is not listed by AACRAO as an acceptable international institution. Oregon will not accept Ross degrees.

However, Ross was recently purchased by an accredited U.S. college. You might contact Ross and ask when they will have U.S. accreditation.”

In the first place, this is the same stuff you posted on another thread. In the second place, Contreras hardly "drags" Ross around by pointing out its acquisition by another school and suggesting further inquiries there. In the third place, if you have a point--or a real beef with Contreras--let's hear it. In the fourth place, if you got screwed by relying on a St Kitts & Nevis "accreditation," that's not Contreras' doing. That's just a guess. Your point escapes me entirely.

 

Can't argue with the Unk!

 

Since Uncle is too kind, thoughtful, and gentlemanly I'll add

for the fifth place, when Alan's email is read objectively, there does not appear to be any connection between the wild accusations put forth and Alan's email. You owe Alan Contrera's an apology, IMHO.

 

Why do all recently-built roads seem to lead to Berne?

On a related note, if I develop Multiple Personality Disorder, can each of my personalities have their own login identity? Perhaps then I could have six or seven identites shilling for TESC.

 

No.. No.. No... I'll do it for you... and I only have one log in name.

....... TESC is a legitimate Regionally Accredited institution. Wooah imagine that....

 

Funny, ain't it? Hail, hail, the gang's all there.
