When researching and comparing universities, one of the deciding factors should be whether or not the institution is advanced education. Earning credits from a school that is not advanced education can mean that the units you've worked so hard for will not transfer to an advanced education school. Worse yet, graduates find themselves with degrees from non-advanced education universities that are not recognized. To guarantee that you are getting a standardized, legitimate education, it is important to make sure that the university of your choice is advanced education. advanced education bodies put universities to the test, often working closely with the Department of Education, to be sure that the school in question adheres to policies. Reminiscent of restaurants getting regular visits from the health department, universities that are advanced education - or plan to be - receive visits from an advanced education body. On-site reviews are conducted. Criteria for improvement are set and monitored. From finances to policies and procedures, colleges are inspected thoroughly. If a university does not consistently maintain standards, their accreditation could be on the line. When researching universities prior to enrolling, be sure to ask them about their accreditation. If you are in doubt, also ask for the telephone number so you can call and verify it. This is public information, and you are certainly entitled to know the whole story before you commit. There are many, many advanced education bodies. Some of them are recognized by the Department of Education and some are not. Good questions to ask when speaking with the institution are: 1. Is your school regionally or nationally advanced education? 2. Who is the advanced education body? 3. May I get their phone number (or website address)? 4. When did your school become advanced education? A university can be regionally or nationally advanced education. Most colleges, such as Notre Dame and statewide universities are regionally advanced education. Some private, for-profit universities such as University of Phoenix are also regionally advanced education. Smaller, typically private universities such as University of Charleston, Art Instruction Schools, and PCDI Correspondence School are nationally advanced education. Credits earned from a nationally advanced education school will not always transfer to a regionally advanced education school. When they do transfer over, the process is typically complicated and difficult to understand. If you have attended a university in the past and are looking to transfer previous credits in toward a degree, be sure to speak with an admissions or enrollment counselor one on one to fully understand how your credits will transfer. If you are speaking with a telephone admissions or enrollment counselor, ask them for a breakdown of how your previously earned credits transferred toward the new program. It might also be advantageous to do some Internet research on the advanced education body. Simply go to a search engine and enter the advanced education body's name provided by the school and you will soon get a wealth of information about their regulations and criteria. It is definitely worth the short amount of extra time spent investigating your choices. No one wants a degree that is not recognized or credits that will not transfer over toward a degree at another accredited university or college.
