8 WE HAVE AS MANY FLAVORS OF ACCREDITATION MILLS AS
9 ACCREDITATION DEFINED: TO GIVE OFFICIAL AUTHORIZATION TO, OR APPROVAL OF; TO PROVIDE WITH CREDENTIALS; TO RECOGNIZE OR VOUCH FOR AS CONFORMING TO A STANDARD;
10 TO RECOGNIZE (AS AN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION) AS MAINTAINING STANDARDS THAT QUALIFY THE GRADUATES FOR ADMISSION TO HIGHER, OR MORE SPECIALIZED INSTITUTIONS FOR PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE; TO CONSIDER OR RECOGNIZE AS OUTSTANDING
11 THE ACT OF GRANTING CREDIT OR RECOGNITION, ESPECIALLY TO AN EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION THAT MAINTAINS SUITABLE STANDARDS.
12 BENEFITS OF LEGITIMATE ACCREDITATION ASSURES QUALITY OF INSTITUTION ASSISTS IN THE IMPROVEMENT OF INSTITUTIONAL PROGRAMS ACCREDITATION MAKES THE DEGREES PORTABLE
13 ACCREDITATION MILL DEFINED: AN ORGANIZATION NOT RECOGNIZED BY THE U.S. DEPT. OF EDUCATION,NOR BY THE COUNCIL FOR HIGHER EDUCATION ACCREDITATION WHICH GRANTS ACCREDITATION WITHOUT REQUIRING THE PURPORTED COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY TO MEET GENERALLY ACCEPTED STANDARDS FOR SUCH ACCREDITATION.
14 IT EITHER RECEIVES FEES FROM ITS SO- CALLED ACCREDITED INSTITUTION ON THE BASIS OF FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATIONS, OR IT MAKES IT POSSIBLE FOR THE PURPORTED COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY RECEIVING SUCH ACCREDITATION (OR ITS GRADUATES ) TO PERPETRATE A FRAUD ON THE PUBLIC.
15 ACCREDITATION MILL ODDITIES SINCE IT HAS NO OFFICIAL RECOGNITION, IT CAN NOT IMPART WHAT IT DOES NOT HAVE ON OTHERS OFFERS FAST ACCREDITATION OFFERS PERMANENT OR LIFETIME ACCREDITATION HAS FEW,IF ANY,STANDARDS PUBLISHED FOR ITS ACCREDITATION
16 HAS NO RIGID STANDARDS RELATING TO ACADEMICS OR STAFF NO PROCEDURES IN PLACE TO MEASURE LEVEL OF COMPLIANCE OR ENFORCEMENT PROCEDURES SOMETIMES ACCREDITS SCHOOLS WITHOUT THEIR KNOWLEDGE DOES NOT PERFORM ON SITE INSPECTIONS PRIOR TO GRANTING ACCREDITATION ONLY COMMUNICATES BY MAIL AND TELEPHONE
17 DOES NOT OPERATE AT ARMS LENGTH WITH THE INSTITUTIONS IT ACCREDITS FREQUENTLY MAKES FALSE STATEMENTS REGARDING ITS ADDRESS, OWNERSHIP, STAFF, LENGTH OF TIME IN BUSINESS, SCHOOLS IT ACCREDITS, ETC. SELLS ITS ACCREDITATION FOR A FLAT UP-FRONT FEE SOMETIMES USES ADDRESSES IN WASHINGTON,D.C.,TO IMPLY A GOVERNMENT AFFILIATION,OR NATIONAL IMAGE
18 MAY USE A NAME SIMILAR TO LEGITIMATE ENTITY (DETC VS.IDETC; COPA VS.COPRA, ETC.) MAY PRE-APPROVE A SCHOOL FOR ACCREDITATION - FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY MISLEADS OR DEFRAUDS GRADUATES OF INSTITUTIONS IT ACCREDITS THROUGH ALL THE ABOVE, MAKES IT POSSIBLE FOR GRADUATES OF ITS ACCREDITED INSTITUTIONS TO DEFRAUD THIRD PARTIES WHO RELY ON THESE DOCUMENTS AND PURPORTED ACCREDITATION.
19 ROLE PLAYED BY ACCREDITATION MILL ADDS APPEARANCE OF LEGITIMACY TO DEGREE MILL SUPPORTS THE CREDIBILITY OF THE SCHOOL VERIFIES ACCREDITATION TO POTENTIAL STUDENTS AND OTHER END USERS
20 HARM DONE BY ACCREDITATION MILL CONFUSES STUDENTS AND THOSE WHO RELY ON THIS ACCREDITATION DEVALUES LEGITIMATE ACCREDITED SCHOOLS DEVALUES LEGITIMATE ACCREDITATION DEFRAUDS STUDENTS AND END USERS
21 WHY DO WE HAVE ACCREDITATION MILLS? WHY GROCERY STORE COUPONS? (SO YOU WILL BUY THE PRODUCT-SAME HERE) AM S ARE STRICKLY A SALES TOOL USED TO SELL THE END PRODUCT (D s & T s) JUST ANOTHER PART OF THE DEGREE MILL SUPPORT NETWORK & TRICKERY OCCURS BECAUSE OF THE PUBLIC S MISUNDERSTANDING OF ACCREDITATION IN GENERAL IN PARTICULAR, FOREIGN STUDENTS.
22 MANY PEOPLE BELIEVE ACCREDITATION IS GIVEN BY THE GOVERNMENT SINCE WE HAVE NO FEDERAL MINISTRY OF EDUCATION AS DO OTHER COUNTRIES THIS CONTRIBUTES TO THE CONFUSION OVER ACCREDITATION THIS OVERALL LACK OF KNOWLEDGE REGARDING ACCREDITATION MAKES STUDENTS & PUBLIC VULNERABLE TO ACCREDITATION SCAMS
23 MANY PEOPLE HAVE READ WARNINGS ABOUT DEGREE MILLS, BUT FEW ABOUT ACCREDITATION MILLS ALSO CONTRIBUTING TO THE GENERAL CONFUSION, IS THE PUBLIC S LACK OF KNOWLEDGE REGARDING THE 8 REGIONAL ENTITIES, SET UP GEOGRAPHICALLY TO ACCREDIT COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES IN THEIR REGIONS
24 COMPOUNDING THIS, NUMEROUS DEGREE MILLS EVEN EXPLOIT THIS CONFUSION, BY DISCUSSING ACCREDITATION, SOME SAY, ACCREDITATION IS VERY CONFUSING I CERTAINLY DO NOT THINK SO EITHER YOU HAVE IT, OR YOU DO NOT.
25 WEB SITES CONTRIBUTING TO THIS CONFUSTION BLENDING NAMES OF UNRECOGNIZED ACCREDITING ENTITIES, WITH THOSE OF LEGITIMATE ACCREDITING ENTITIES
