The regionally accredited colleges and universities will not accept coursework from institutions with other accreditation's. It would be like compromising their own. Each accrediting agency has standards of their, therefore not equivalent. The regional accrediting agencies are recognized as having higher standards than other types of accrediting agencies.
If you're a hiring manager or human resources professional, chances are you review applications and resumes from people who want to work for your organization or who want to be promoted. Some applicants may list credentials - like a bachelor's, master's, or doctoral degree, or a professional certification - that sound credible, but in fact, were not earned through a legitimate course of study at an accredited institution.Federal officials caution that some people are buying phony credentials from "diploma mills" - companies that sell "degrees" or certificates on the Internet without requiring the buyer to do anything more than pay a fee. Most diploma mills charge a flat fee, require little course work, if any, and award a degree based solely on "work or life experience."According to officials from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the Department of Education, and the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) bogus credentials can compromise your credibility - and your organization's. You could place an unqualified person in a position of responsibility, leaving your organization liable if the employee's actions harm someone. You could hire a person who is dishonest in other ways, exposing your organization and colleagues to potential damage. And if the bogus degrees are brought to light, you risk embarrassment.The agencies have teamed up, putting new tools in place to help you weed out bogus academic credentials and insure the integrity of your hiring process. Although it's not always easy to tell if academic credentials are from an accredited institution, the federal officials say there are clues to help you spot questionable credentials on a resume or application. Look for: * Out of Sequence Degrees. When you review education claims, you expect to see degrees earned in a traditional progression - high school, followed by bachelor's, master's, and doctoral or other advanced degrees. If an applicant claims a master's or doctoral degree, but no bachelor's degree - or if the applicant claims a college degree, but no high school diploma or General Educational Development (GED) diploma, consider it a red flag, and a likely sign of a diploma mill. * Quickie Degrees. It generally takes time to earn a college or advanced degree - three to four years for an undergraduate degree, one or two years for a master's degree, and even longer to earn a doctorate. A degree earned in a very short time, or several degrees listed for the same year, are warning signs for the hiring official or the person doing the preliminary screening. * Degrees From Schools in Locations Different From the Applicant's Job or Home. If the applicant worked full-time while attending school, check the locations of the job and the educational institution. If the applicant didn't live where he went to school, check to see if the degree is from an accredited distance learning institution, using the steps described under 'Checking Out Academic Credentials.' If the degree is not from a legitimate, accredited distance learning institution, it may be from a diploma mill. * Sound-Alike Names. Some diploma mills use names that sound or look like those of well-known colleges or universities. If the institution has a name similar to a well-known school, but is located in a different state, check on it. Should you come across a degree from an institution with a prestigious-sounding foreign name, that calls for some homework, too. Researching the legitimacy of foreign schools can be a challenge, but consider it a warning sign if an applicant claims a degree from a country where she never lived.Federal officials recommend that you always check academic credentials, even when the school they're from is well-known. Some applicants may falsify information about their academic backgrounds rather than about their work history, possibly because employers are less likely to check with schools for verification or to require academic transcripts.Here's how to verify academic credentials:# Contact the school. Most college registrars will confirm dates of attendance and graduation, as well as degrees awarded and majors, upon request. If the applicant gives permission, they may provide a certified academic transcript. If you aren't familiar with the school, don't stop your research just because someone answers your questions on the phone or responds with a letter. Some diploma mills offer a "verification service" that will send a phony transcript to a prospective employer who calls.# Research the school on the Internet. Check to see if the school is accredited by a recognized agency. Colleges and universities accredited by legitimate agencies generally undergo a rigorous review of the quality of their educational programs. If a school has been accredited by a nationally recognized accrediting agency, it's probably legitimate. Many diploma mills claim to be "accredited," but the accreditation is from a bogus, but official-sounding, agency they invented.You can use the Internet to check if a school is accredited by a legitimate organization at a new database of accredited academic institutions, posted by the U.S. Department of Education at www.ope.ed.gov/accreditation. (There are a few legitimate institutions that have not pursued accreditation.)To find out if an accrediting agency is legitimate, check the list of recognized national and regional accrediting agencies maintained by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation at www.chea.org.Look at the school's website. Although it is prudent to check out the school on the Internet, it's not always easy to pick out a diploma mill based on a quick scan of its site. Some diploma mills have slick websites, and a "dot-edu" Web address doesn't guarantee legitimacy. Nevertheless, the website can be a source of information. Indeed, federal officials say it's probably a diploma mill if:#* tuition is charged on a per-degree basis, rather than per credit, course, or semester#* there are few or unspecified degree requirements, or none at all#* the emphasis is on degrees for work or life experience, and#* the school is relatively new, or has recently changed its name.Check other resources. There is no comprehensive list of diploma mills on the Web because new phony credentialing sources arise all the time.However, the Oregon Student Assistance Commission's Office of Degree Authorization maintains a list of organizations it has identified as diploma mills at www.osac.state.or.us/oda.Another way to check up on a school is to call the registrar of a local college or university and ask if it would accept transfer credits from the school you are researching.# Ask the applicant for proof of the degree and the school's accreditation. If you don't get satisfactory answers from the school itself and the accreditation sites on the Web, ask the applicant for proof of the degree, including a certified transcipt, and the school's accreditation. Ultimately, it's up to the applicant to show that he earned his credentials from a legitimate institution.OPM oversees the federal work force and provides the American public with up-to-date employment information.

Honor role in middle school means that a child is at or above a certain grade point average (GPA). It varies from school to school but the lowest GPA most likely will be around a 3.0. Somethimes there is a high honor rolw which will be those who have the highest GPA's in that grade, again each school is different but high honor role is usually around a 3.5
B+ and up equals honor roll A+ equals high honor roll
Master's is highly respectedThere are reasons why schools, such as Master's International would choose not to pursue accreditation, Here is the information supplied on the website, that the person who answered this question did not happen to mention:Exactly What Is Accreditation and How is it Different from Certification?Accreditation is essentially a statement of approval. In the United States, if it is to be meaningful, it must come from an independent association having attained its own approval from the United States Department of Education (USDE). In the U.S., the government (USDE) does not accredit schools. However, the USDE is in the business of approving the associations which do accredit schools (for the purpose of serving as gate keepers for Title IV Funding). You must understand this if you are to properly understand accreditation. Title IV Funding is the nearly 60 billion dollar congressionally approved annual money stream that flows from taxpayers to educational institutions that are accredited by an agency approved by USDE. The reason that USDE approves accrediting agencies is to assure quality control over the flow of Title IV Funds. The greater part of accreditation requirements is geared toward satisfying the USDE mandated standards that are specifically designed to safeguard the huge taxpayer investment in higher education.Accrediting associations in the U.S. are not required to seek USDE recognition, but without it, the value of such accreditation may be questionable, and schools they accredit are not eligible to receive Title IV Funds. That is why schools promoting accreditation from sources not approved by the USDE are considered "unaccredited." BEWARE: There are dozens of so-called accrediting agencies (some with very official sounding names), that are nothing more than a fraud designed to deceive.EXCEPTION: Accrediting agencies (just like schools), must first operate according to accepted practices and attract a sufficient number of clients before they can petition the USDE for possible acceptance. Unrecognized agencies that are in a petitioning status with USDE, and are operating openly within the general parameters set forth by USDE (though still not considered recognized), ought to be considered valid, but their members schools are still not qualified for Title IV Funds.The following quote is taken from the web site of the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). "There are accrediting organizations that may not be recognized but are not accreditation mills. For example, the accreditor may be seeking recognition, but the process is not complete. Or the accreditor does not meet the requirements of CHEA or USDE for reasons that do not relate to quality."Certification is also essentially a statement of approval, but significantly different from accreditation in several important ways. Most importantly, certification is not tied to Title IV Funding. Only USDE recognized accreditation qualifies institutions to receive such funding. Certification is not generally recognized as being equivalent to accreditation since certification criteria is not geared toward satisfying the requirements for Title IV Funding. Therefore, certifying agencies are not as well known, and their value not as readily appreciated.Legitimate certification is similar to legitimate accreditation in that it also involves voluntary peer review through private agencies accountable to their constituents and the public at large, but not to the federal government since Title IV Funding is not involved. Much of the misunderstanding that arises between the two is due to the lack of consumer awareness, and the generally held belief that accreditation is the only standard for academic legitimacy. This is one reason why accreditation mills thrive while certification mills generally are not popular targets for scam artists.Furthermore, certification is a term more often associated with professions, products, and processes. For example, there are "Certified Financial Planners", "USDA Certified Agricultural Products", and "Procedures Certified" by certain medical associations. Of course, the the term "accredited" is also used in many of these situations. This is because the two terms often serve as synonyms. However, when it comes to higher education, accreditation is tied to Title IV Funding and certification is not. Schools may be accredited but not certified, certified and not accredited or both or neither. The important thing is that the school not misrepresent itself.Exactly What is an Accredited Degree?This may come as a shock, but in point-of-fact, there is no such thing as an accredited degree. Only schools or programs within schools are accredited. Period!. Look carefully at any degree earned from an accredited school, and you will not find one word that even suggests that it is an "accredited" degree. If it does, you may be certain that the degree is bogus. That's because degrees are not accredited. You can earn a degree from an accredited school or program within a school, but you cannot earn an accredited degree from that same school. It may seem like only a matter of semantics, but it much more. You can earn a degree from either an accredited or unaccredited school, but the degree you earn is neither accredited nor unaccredited. Here is an example (admittedly extreme, but it makes the point): Sam Smith graduated from MYU before it was accredited. His degree is from an unaccredited school. Sam's son (Sam Jr.) graduated from MYU after it received accreditation. Sam Jr. earned a degree from an accredited school. Sam's grandson graduated from MYU during the time that it lost its accreditation. Sam III earned a degree from an unaccredited school. Sam's great grandson earned his degree from MYU after it regained its accreditation. Sam IV earned a degree from an accredited school. Now let's look back, The fact that MYU was accredited when Sam Jr. attended, was of no consequence to Sam. His degree was still earned at an unaccredited school. Why? Because there is no such thing as "grandfathering" when it comes to accreditation. The same is true for Sam Jr. at the time MYU lost its accreditation. Sam Jr. still earned a degree from an accredited school. Why? Because even though a school may lose its accreditation (it happens), there is no reverse of grandfathering. The school will always be considered accredited at the time that it held accreditation, and unaccredited at the time it did not hold accreditation. The bottom line, there is no such thing as an accredited degree. One either earns a degree from an accredited or unaccredited school. All accredited schools in the U.S. were at one time, unaccredited, and all accredited schools are subject to the loss of accreditation (it does happen).Are Schools Required to Obtain Recognized Accreditation?No. For the most part, accreditation in the U.S. is strictly voluntary. Many states require, or provide for, a kind of "state approval." However, this is not the same as accreditation. There are many schools in the U.S. that operate as top-quality institutions with high academic standards and yet have elected to not seek accreditation.The following quote is taken from the web site of the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). There are institutions that may not be accredited but are not degree mills. For example, the institution may be seeking accreditation, but the process is not complete. Or a legitimate institution may choose not to be accredited for reasons that do not relate to quality.The following quote from the United States Department of Education makes the point. "It should be noted that some institutions have chosen not to participate in the federal student aid program and therefore do not have to be approved by an accrediting agency recognized by the Department. While these institutions do not appear on the Department's list, they may be legitimate schools. Stroup encouraged consumers and employers to use the list as an initial source of information and to investigate further whenever an institution does not appear on the list."(February 1, 2005)The former executive director of the Association for Biblical Higher Education (an accrediting agency recognized by the United States Department of Education), as quoted in that agency's September 2005 quarterly publication stated that "There are hundreds of Bible Colleges and Seminaries in the United States and Canada that are offering good solid theological training, yet they are not accredited. This would be the case with our Affiliate institutions that take advantage of the programs and services that we offer."Of course, all schools in the U.S. attempting to seek recognized accreditation must first operate as an unaccredited school and provide sufficient proof of institutional credibility prior to applying. All accredited schools in the U.S. were, at one time, unaccredited. In fact, the common qualifying procedure for schools seeking recognized accreditation is the development of a "Self Study" through which the institution demonstrates, to the satisfaction of the accrediting agency, that it is operating in a manner sufficiently consistent with the criteria required for accreditation. On a practical level, this demonstrates that it is possible for an unaccredited school to operate at a level generally equivalent to that of an accredited school. The very same logic can be applied to certification as well.What Are Some Advantages of Recognized Accreditation?Access to government sponsored or approved student loans and grants (Title IV Funds).Easier recognition for transfer of its credits to other accredited schools.Easier recognition of its degrees by other schools and organizations.Greater likelihood of acceptance of its students by other schools for further study.Greater probability of the recognition of its educational programs meeting the qualifications for some goals, requirements, and licenses.What Are Some Disadvantages of Recognized Accreditation?More difficult entrance requirements into its programs of study.Program requirements which may limit certain individuals or prevent them from being accepted into its programs.Significantly higher tuition and related costs for all programs of study.Less accommodating schedules and course offerings.Fewer options for the older or nontraditional student.What Are Some Advantages of Not HavingRecognized Accreditation?Less difficult entrance requirements for desirable programs of study.Lower tuition and related costs making it possible to graduate without debt.More accommodating program schedules and course offerings making it possible for busy adults to study anywhere anytime.Unaccredited schools are likely to be more innovative and liberal in the development of specialized courses, unique study concepts, the use of emerging technology, and the design of nontraditional certificate and degree programs. In this regard they are often pioneers and early adopters.Providing the school is properly dedicated to its mission, the student will have an opportunity to gain an education comparable to that offered at accredited schools for similar courses and programs, but at a fraction of the total cost.What Are Some Disadvantages of Not HavingRecognized Accreditation?No access to government sponsored or approved student loans and grants (Title IV Funds).Transfer of credits earned may be more difficult.Acceptance of graduates by accredited schools for further study more difficult.The recognition of educational qualifications earned for meeting some goals may be problematic.Certain licenses and professional requirements may not permit the acceptance of degrees earned from unaccredited schools.Does Recognized Accreditation Assure A Quality Education?No. Even though recognized accreditation is a very good indicator that a program meets acceptable standards, the quality of an education is still largely dependent upon the value of the course content, the background and competency of the instructor, and the willingness of the student to get the most out of the course. It is quite possible to attend even a top-rated accredited school and obtain an inferior education. No level of accreditation can force a professor to do her or his best, and no professor, however gifted and dedicated, can force a student to learn. It's always possible for a less than sincere person to beat the system.Can A Program Without Recognized Accreditation Provide A Quality Education?Yes! Again, since the quality of an education is largely dependent upon the value of the course content, the background and competency of the instructor, and the willingness of the student to get the most out of the course, it is quite possible to attend a well organized unaccredited school and receive a first-class education. In fact, there is no reason why the level of learning between an accredited and unaccredited program offering similar courses and programs should not be comparable. The honest student truly seeking to learn, will quickly discover whether the program is meeting the need. If the course of study is meeting the need, and the student is doing her or his best, whether the school is accredited or not may be immaterial. Beware of those who suggest that there is "no reason to attend an unaccredited school." Such logic suggests that there is no need for new schools, or for the older and established schools to become accredited. How so? In order to become an accredited school, an unaccreditedschool must first demonstrate through a pattern of evidence [to the satisfaction of the accrediting agency], that it is operating in a manner sufficiently consistent with the criteria required for accreditation. In other words, in order for any school to become accredited, there must be a sufficient period of time during which the school is unaccredited but operating as if it were accredited, before it can be accredited. This cannot be done unless the school is enrolling and graduating students! Furthermore, without the pressure from innovative and immerging institutions, competition would be stifled, resulting in fewer choices and even higher tuition.Will a Degree Earned Through an Unaccredited School be Accepted and Considered Legitimate?This depends upon what is meant by accepted and legitimate. Here is the blunt truth. There is a difference between a legitimate degree and a degree earned legitimately! Depending on the law of any given state or country, even a cheap degree may be legally legitimate. But was it legitimately earned? A degree is legitimately earned providing the entrance requirements, course work, and completion requirements are appropriate for the degree awarded (whether it is earned through an accredited or unaccredited institution).Will a Degree from an Unaccredited School be Accepted by My Church or Place of Employment?While there certainly are some situations when only a degree from an accredited school can qualify one for certain positions and privileges, for the most part, you are judged and accepted on you, not the school from which you graduated. Example: Are you already in ministry? If so, when was the last time a member of your church asked you if you had a degree at all, much less if it was earned at an accredited college or seminary?CAUTION! Do not fall victim to the myth that earning a degree from an accredited school is a ticket to ministry success. It is not. Ministry is one of those places where what you do with what you know trumps everything else. In fact, for those already serving in ministry, a degree from a highly credible though unaccredited school may be be the most logical choice. We ought never to forget that especially in the Christian tradition, academic freedom is considered a cornerstone of religious liberty. Of course, so is academic responsibility! Therefore, any program of study leading to a theological degree ought to be both Biblically sound, and academically honest.However, if you are concerned whether your church or place of employment will accept you with a degree earned through an credible though unaccredited school, you are strongly urged to ask! Even in the case of degrees earned from accredited schools, there may be restrictions on what kind of degree is recognized, and what kinds of schools are considered acceptable. For example, in some cases, denominations and ministries may not accept degrees from secular schools, or schools not affiliated with the group.Will a Degree or Credits Earned Through an Unaccredited School be Accepted by Other Schools?First of all, it should be understood that no school is required to accept credits ore degrees from another school (accredited or unaccredited). However, generally speaking, degrees earned through unaccredited schools will often be recognized by other unaccredited schools providing the school meets the standards of the receiving school, and the learning discipline is relevant. On the other hand, most accredited schools will accept only a very limited number of students from unaccredited schools. Such acceptance, when granted, is usually based on degree or credit relevancy, the coursework and degree requirements, and the background and ability of the person applying. The bottom line...an accredited school may accept credits and degrees from an unaccredited school, but don't count on it! If this is a real issue for you, ask first!However, in the case of Master's, because of our commitment to educational excellence, credits and degrees earned a MISD have been accepted at many regularly accredited institutions. In addition, MISD has formal agreements with several faith-based institutions of higher learning regarding the acceptance of credits and degrees, and friendly relations with more than ninety others. Names of these institutions are available upon request.Why is Master's Certified, but not Accredited?Master's is a relatively young institution (founded March 30, 1999), and is not financially endowed as in the case of institutions associated with denominations . The process of seeking and obtaining legitimate accreditation is one that requires considerable institutional resources, and a sufficient number of years of successful operation in order to be adequately prepared. Since our founding in 1999, we have pursued a policy of developing a Divinity School that operates in a manner consistent with Biblical guidelines, and have promoted and maintained appropriate academic and business standards. Consequently, we have received a remarkable level of credibility among our ministry peers. This affirmation of institutional integrity has attracted thousands of students from around the world. Our alumni serve in practically every ministry calling within the denominational and independent structures of the church-at-large. A careful examination of our Endorsements and Cooperatives bears witness to this fact. Our goal is to remain faithful to our mission and purpose, to continue to promote appropriate academic standards, and to be vigilant in our pursuit of institutional development.Nevertheless, we do recognize and honor the value of legitimate academic and institutional peer review. For this reason, Master's has achieved certification with the Council of Private Colleges of America. The mission of the CPCA is to serve private faith based educational institutions through quality standards and practices. The purpose of the CPCA is to promote quality faith based education, and provide support services for faith based educational institutions to accomplish their individual purpose and mission. The CPCA represents member faith based educational institutions before government or other educational agencies, and provides certification to member faith based educational institutions through quality peer review and onsite certification visits verifying CPCA standards.In addition, understanding the value of USDE recognized accrediting agencies, Master's has achieved affiliated status with the Association for Biblical Higher Education (a USDE recognized agency). As such, we participates in and contribute to collegial and professional development activities of the Association. Our affiliate status does not, however, constitute, imply or presume ABHE accredited status at present or in the future.Does Master's Have A Plan to Seek Recognized Accreditation?First, let's make something quite clear...one of the "tricks" of unscrupulous schools is to falsely hold out the promise of accreditation sometime in the near future. No unaccredited school can promise students that it is going to be accredited (and no accredited school can promise that it will always remain accredited). Even though Master's is currently engaged in the process of preparing for recognized accreditation, if we are successful, that will have no bearing on degrees earned prior to accreditation (see above). Furthermore, the process by which recognized accreditation is achieved can take years. If you are seriously considering Master's, and do not need to earn a degree from an already accredited institution, then your decision should be based upon our currently achieved level of credibility.OK, but How Can I be Sure That Master's International School of Divinity is Really Valid and of High Quality?Check us out for yourself. DO NOT rely on published guide books, Internet message/discussion boards, blogs or chat rooms for accurate information (this holds true for any other school you may be considering). Such places as message/discussion boards and blogs are often populated by one or more "self-proclaimed experts" whom only rarely possess any actual first-hand knowledge about the schools they suppose themselves to be competent to rate (or rant against). These individuals seem to crave whatever attention they may get from their pontifications.In addition, the few books and online guides that profess to give "expert" guidance, are too often out-of-date or just plain wrong, simply because it is physically impossible for these individuals to actually visit the schools they profess to know about. Consequently, information is notoriously inaccurate, out-of-date and suffers from the fact the few if any of the schools rated have received an actual on-site visit or even been afforded the benefit of submitting a formal validation document. Information is usually gleaned from the internet, school catalogs as well as second and third-hand sources. One serious indication of poor research is the use of unprofessional language and the strongly worded personal opinions of the author or compiler. While such sources may provide some useful information, caution should be exercised when accepting information as accurate.Furthermore, be aware that some unscrupulous admissions recruiters often profess to have "inside knowledge" in order to berate competing schools as a way of convincing you to enroll at the school they represent. The only sure way is to check it out for yourself. In the case of Master's, read everything on our web site, call and speak with anyone or any organization named on the web site that is of interest to you. Request an academic evaluation for yourself, and ask every question that you think is important. Don't settle for anything less than a satisfactory answer. After that, you will be able to make an informed decision.IMPORTANT: Please visit us in person if that is possible. These days, legitimate schools are trying very hard to present themselves as best they can by having a first-rate web site (such as Master's is trying to do). However, easy degree mills and outright degree mills are also doing so. That's why a visit can be worth a thousand pictures! Of course, you may not be able to visit, but perhaps you have a friend or a colleague from your church or business contacts who may be able to come on your behalf, if so, we would be pleased to meet with them in your place. If none of these options are practical, you may wish to contact the Council of Private Colleges of America. The on-site team that recommended our five-year certification will be able to answer any questions concerning the quality of Master's.

McCann School of Business and Technology is accredited by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools. This is not the accreditation that regionally accredited colleges and universities recognize. Unfortunately, I am not aware of any regionally accredited colleges and universities that would honor the coursework or degree from this school. There might be some schools that would evaluate your coursework as life experience, however you you have to research this issue. Just make sure, whichever college or university you choose has a regional accreditation. I have listed below the six regional accrediting agencies and there area of expertise. Make sure the school is accredited by one of them.Regional Accreditation Agencies· Middle States Association of Colleges and Schools - Educational institutions in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands, as well as schools for American children in Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East.· New England Association of Schools and Colleges - Educational institutions in the six New England states (Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Vermont).· North Central Association of Colleges and Schools - Educational institutions in Arkansas, Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Illinois, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, North Dakota, Nebraska, Ohio, Oklahoma, New Mexico, South Dakota, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and Wyoming.· Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities - Postsecondary institutions (colleges and universities) in Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Washington.· Western Association of Schools and Colleges - Educational institutions in California, Hawaii, Guam, American Samoa, Micronesia, Palau, and Northern Marianas Islands.· Southern Association of Colleges and Schools - Educational institutions in Virginia, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Alabama, Tennessee and Texas.*********************************************************************There are schools (universities and colleges)that accept McCann School of Business Credits.They have an articulation agreement with McCann, and you would most likely start as a junior.Schools that I know accept McCann credits are:Alvernia University- Main campus in Reading, PA and two satellite campuses inPottsville, PA and Philadelphia, PA.Desales University- Allentown, PASlippery Rock University- Slippery Rock, PACentral Penn.
