I have a friend going through baker he loves it however it has nothing to offer in the field I am intrested in. Now there are a couple that have what I want but, I am not sure if they are Accredited. They all say they are but....you never know. Anyone know anything about:

CTU Online (Colorado Technical University)

Virginia College

or

Central Florida College

I am not sure if these are good or not can anyone let me know?

CHEA, the Council for Higher Education Accreditation, has an online tool you can use to determine quickly whether a school is accredited or not:

For example, it says that Colorado Tech is regionally accredited and that both Virginia College and Central Florida College are nationally accredited.

What does that mean?  Well, here's an explanation of the different types of accredition:

Hope this helps!

My brother graduated from Colorado Tech.  A good school, expensive but good.

Are they expensive as far as tuition is concerned? Just wondering.

Colorado Tech is expensive, at least their doctoral program is.

Comparing apples to apples pretty much all of their programs are fairly expensive.  A good school but there are more cost effectives options out there and it's not as if Colorado Tech carries a warranted amount of prestige to justify the additional expense.  At least in my opinion.
