Did samone know samthing about the Canyon College in Caldwell, Idaho. They offer a lot of degrees for $900-$1500. Lelica ------------------
Not a good choice. It's not accredited by any recognized association. Here's a relevant article: "An Online College Based in Idaho Avoids Regulation, and Raises Concerns" Dan Carnevale, Chronicle of Higher Education, September 20, 2000 http://chronicle.com/free/2000/09/2000092001u.htm If you're looking at US schools, it's important to look at whether the school is accredited by an association recognized by the US Department of Education. Here's an article with some tips on evaluating schools and links to related resources: http://distancelearn.about.com/library/weekly/aa011701a.htm ------------------ Kristin Evenson Hirst DistanceLearn.About.com
Kristin Hirst's advice is wise. Last year, Steve Levicoff, by dint of contacting the fire department in Caldwell, determined that the "campus" address is the private home of Canyon College administrator John Denmark.
The right hand giveth . . . And now Tom Nixon has discovered an ABC News report on distance learning, focusing on some poor shlub in Pennsylvania who is doing his degree with Canyon College. This will undo some of the good that Good Morning America is accomplishing with its diploma mill features. John Bear
