    Hey guys,

    On top of their HLC accredition being reaffirmed until 2021, their newly acquired ACBSP accreditation, they have two new mascots. This is the first time I have heard an online-only school having a mascot.

    AMU is now the AMU Golden Eagles! I really like this name. It makes me feel better about choosing AMU.

    APU is now the APU Volunteers. The logo has a Labrador on it.

    Below you can see the logos on these shirts.

    Well, not really.... Northcentral University adopted Road Runner as their mascot.

    Now all they need is a football team for that mascot.

    I am glad they have mascotts, but perhaps they should have been more orignial and unique to AMU/APU?

    Interesting. I remember getting an email about how they wanted submissions for mascots. It took a while, but I am happy with the results. Not bad, not bad at all.

    Doesn't TUI have Neptune/Poseidon for its mascot?

    At the moment, maybe the ship from "The Poseidon Adventure" would be fitting.

    WGU is an online-only school, and they've been working on a mascot for a few months now. They've actually setted on a "Night Owl", but have not come up with a design that satisfies the students yet.

    WGU should adopt former California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger as their mascot. The one that he was in body builder championship. :)


    @ Ted, Yup...Roadrunner is NCU's mascot! I like NCU old log than the new one, the new one looks like more for marketing company vs traditional academic institution.

    I wonder if anyone will ever take Wile E. Coyote as their mascot.

    They're closer to the former than to the latter.
