    I came across to two accrediting agencies and would like to seek your opinion regarding them. They are: The International University Accrediting Association (IUAA) and Virtual University Accrediting Association (VUAA). You may be interested in visiting their web page before you make your comments. Their web page is: http://www.accrediting.com
    They accredit many recognized universities all over the world. Do you think universities appeared in their lists of accredited universities are recognized internationally? Please advise!

    If I'm not mistaken, this is Dr. Chief Swift Eagle's little game. I'd say it's a safe bet that his new accreditation process involves involuntary listing, and many of the legitimately accredited schools would object to their listing on his site.

    You aren't mistaken. His 'International Theological Univerity' is another part of the same 'accrediting.com' site.

    This is a common ploy of fake or useless accrediting agencies: award your accreditation to some major universities (without their knowing or, probably, caring), along with the miserable schools you run yourself.

    When Columbia State was the biggest fraud going in America, their fake accrediting agency said that they had accredited Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Notre Dame, and Columbia State, among others.

    Once again John has given us a very descriptive term to define the quality of certain schools. Remember the "less-than-wonderful" phrase, which I thought was very diplomatic, but I like this one even better---MISERABLE!

    Thank you, John!
