What is meant when we say a school is accredited?
x
xxxxThere are two distinct reasons for a school to become accredited by an accrediting agency. One, the accrediting agency assures that accredited schools operate by a higher quality of standards when governing the student body and the schools identity as a whole, not the academic curriculum. Two, this accreditation can be recognized by the U.S. Dept. of Education as in compliance with governmental standards, therefore allowing the accredited school to make available to students Title 4 benefits. The government does not set school standards directly, those values are represented through the accrediting agency. Again the largest reason for schools to become accredited is to allow them to make available to the student Title 4 funds. This does not mean that the unaccredited school is a lesser qualified school in it's operations in governing the student body.

xxxxStudent's should understand that just because you can apply for government financial aid does not mean you will qualify for benefits and if you do qualify, it normally does not amount to much, only under extreme circumstances will a student see enough grant or loan value to pay for a complete education. Students must realize that a personal and or family financial commitment must be presented if you want an education. In the real world of student finances, students must have some type of new or current employment and be prepared to go to school at the same time in order for financial institutions to consider them as a good investment. There are many financial institutions that have affordable long term repayment plans that can suit just about anyone's financial and credit status.
