Who we are and how we work

Who runs this site

Accredited University is run by a team that also operates paid admissions services. Those services help working adults apply to accredited universities, including universities that give credit for prior learning, and they pay for this site. We tell you this so you can judge what you read here with all the facts.⁠​‌​​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠

• Everything on this site is free to use, and you never need to buy anything to use a tool.
• No university, school or company pays to be listed, mentioned or left out.
• Where we mention our own admissions service, we say that it is ours and that it is paid.

How we decide what to publish

• Sources for every fact. Each law, list and figure links to the authority or publication it comes from, with the date we checked it.
• We do not label schools on our own judgment. We name an institution as fake or unrecognised only when a government or education authority has done so, and we quote that authority's words.
• Our tools show signs, not verdicts. The scanners point out the phrases and patterns that fake-degree sellers use, and explain why. They cannot prove that a school is fake or genuine; only the official register can tell you that.
• No links that help sellers. We do not link to websites that sell fake degrees, so we never send them visitors or search ranking.

For entries from a government warning list, we follow the authority: if it updates or removes an entry, we do the same as soon as we see the change. If you believe an authority has listed you in error, please contact that authority as well.⁠​‌​​​​​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌‌​​​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌‌‌‌‌​​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​⁠
