TUI says they are WASC Accredited

DTechBA,

Thanks for sharing your opinions! And your
emotions, and all of your name calling. B-)

We'll just have to agree to disagree as your
real world experiences seem in contrast with
many others, including mine.

I really DO hope you have a relaxing weekend.

Billy

 

TUI may not necessarily be the first accredited 100% online school accredited by WASC. In fact, the nursing school at the University of Hawaii just received online Ph.D. accreditation from WASC as well. Please see information at this site: http://pacific.bizjournals.com/pacific/stories/2005/02/28/daily19.html

Also, check this site to read the program requirements at the Uinversity of Hawaii: http://www.nursing.hawaii.edu/programs.html?show=phd

They require, I believe, 4 visits. So, there is probably some information about TUI that we still do not know. Also, this may also be a new nomancleture for WASC. Regardless, I wish TUI and its students well. It was indeed a good news. Thank you.

 

Ummm... what about the Fielding Graduate Institute??

Also, they are APA accredited.

 

HOW MANY ARE THERE???

Wait a second! Someone stop and explain this to me. There are 2 more Touros?

So let me get this straight, there is the main campus, Touro College, and then 2 Touro Universities, and then Touro University International??

How does all this work, as in how are all these schools related to one another?

Also, why wouldn't TUI just drop the "International" if there are already TU's.

I'm now confused.

 

Touro College has its own international branches such as Touro College Berlin:

Congratulations to Touro University International and students on achieving WASC accreditation!

 

WGU is accredited by four regional accrediting agencies (http://www.wgu.edu/about_WGU/accreditation.asp)

One of which is WASC

 

I believe that Eli quickly corrected himself with the same information in a previous posting.

 

Yes, I stand corrected

 

WASC Accreditation Update

WASC website has been updated with Touro accreditation information.

Looks like Touro University International (@ Cypress, CA ) and Touro University California (@ Mare Island, Vallejo, CA) are separately accredited by WASC.
