If you are interested in Degrees-r-us for your next phoney degree, here is a list of bogus institutions that provide degrees for their applicants who have "life experience" qualifications: Adams University www.adamsuniversity.net Imperial University College www.imperial-online.net Kendall University www.kendall-u.net Macarther University www.macarther.net Ratchford University www.ratchfordu.com Ross College www.rosseducation.net Walsh Business College www.walsh-college.net Xavier Business College www.xb-college.com The diploma mill business is not only alive and well.....but thriving!
I clicked onto the Adams University website, and learned that all of your submitted transcripts must be sent to the National Academic Archive Registrar. When I followed that link, I found that a student must pay $195.00 to open an account, and a $45.00 fee each time the archive sends your transcripts out. The schools I have attended hold my transcripts for free, and charge me $4.00 to send a certified copy out.
Note also that this "Walsh Business College" is NOT the same as Walsh College, an RA business/accountancy school in Troy, Michigan. Even the colors are copied from the real Walsh College website.
Some colleges send transcripts free of charge. Harvard University, University of Massachusetts, and British Columbia Open University are 3 that I know of. However, I think NAAR may be willing to send out forged transcripts submitted by the "student". (It says, "Each individual and/or entity that archives records into the National Academic Archive Registrar database is solely responsible for the data contained in their personal record." http://www.academic-archive.com/disclaimer.htm And "When returning by mail; A) Attach your academic records and fax them to us." http://www.academic-archive.com/PDF_Files/NAAR%20Registration%20Account%20Setup.pdf) If so, NAAR provides an extra service that your alma mater does not.
