(詳細はcolleges, seminaries, and universities that do not have educational accreditation. In many countries, accreditation defined as a governmental designation. Degrees or other qualifications from unaccredited institutions may not be accepted by civil service or other employers. Some unaccredited institutions have formal legal authorization to enroll students or issue degrees, but in some jurisdictions (notably including the United States) legal authorization to operate is not the same as educational accreditation.〔(Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) ), Oregon Office of Degree Authorization, accessed October 5, 2010〕〔John Bear and Mariah P. Bear (2003), (Bears' guide to earning degrees by distance learning ), Ten Speed Press.〕 Institutions that appear on this list are those that have granted post-secondary academic degrees or advertised the granting of such degrees, but which are listed as unaccredited by a reliable source. An institution may not maintain accreditation for one of several reasons. A new institution may not yet have attained accreditation, while a long-established institution may have lost accreditation due to financial difficulties or other factors. Some unaccredited institutions are fraudulent diploma mills.〔(Important Questions about Accreditation, Degree Mills, and Accreditation Mills ), Council on Higher Education Accreditation website, retrieved October 17, 2010.〕 Other institutions (for example, some Bible colleges and seminaries) choose not to participate in the accreditation process because they view it as an infringement of their religious, academic, or political freedom.〔An example of a school that has historically refused to participate in an accreditation process is Pensacola Christian College. ''The Chronicle of Higher Education'' reported (in Bartlett, Thomas, ("A College That's Strictly Different )," March 24, 2006): "Pensacola has shown no interest in outside approval of any kind. Nor does it advertise its unaccredited status. A search of the Web site turns up no mention of accreditation. It is not mentioned in the college's viewbook either, which dedicates four pages to sports activities and two to campus facilities. It is mentioned, in small print, on the inside flap of the course catalog: 'Pensacola Christian College has never made application for regional accreditation as the College believes it would jeopardize the College's philosophical distinctives.' The catalog goes on to say that getting other colleges to accept Pensacola's credits 'has seldom been an insurmountable problem.'"〕 Some government jurisdictions exempt religious institutions from accreditation or other forms of government oversight.〔(Religious Exempt Schools ), Oregon Office of Degree Authorization website, accessed October 17, 2010.〕 Still other institutions are not required to have accreditation. Some of the institutions on this list are no longer in operation. Several unaccredited universities have names that are similar to those of accredited institutions, and thus some persons may be misled into thinking that that an entity is an accredited university. It should be noted that accreditation is date-related: In the United States, colleges and universities are typically not fully-accredited until several years after they open. Also, in the United States, many colleges and universities existed prior to the development of the modern accreditation system.〔https://cihe.neasc.org/about-accreditation/us-regional-accreditation-overview〕 ==A== * Académie Européene d'Informatisation, aka ''World Information Distributed University - WID'',Belgium, Russia〔〔〔(Letter from Ministère de la Communauté française, Belgium, to AACRAO ), April 15, 2005, identifies this institution as a private organization in Belgium whose diplomas and degrees have "no legal effects."〕 * Academy of Natural Therapies, formerly in Hawaii until closed by court order; may have reopened in Wyoming, Colorado or Montana〔State of Hawaii Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs, (Civil Enforcement Lawsuits: Academy of Natural Therapies )〕〔 * Academy of Religious & Spiritual Studies〔 * Accademia di Belle Arti di Mendicino, Italy〔Fiocchetti, C., Checcacci, C. & Lantero, L., "How to spot and counter diploma mills", Chapter 4 (November 2010) Information Centre on Academic Mobility and Equivalence (CIMEA) ()〕 * Adam Smith University, Liberia; Saipan〔〔〔〔 * Adams College * Adams and Washington University, King College of Professional Studies, England 〔 * Addison State University, Ottawa, Canada; "has no Ontario authorization to issue degrees" 〔 * Adison University 〔 * Advanced Learning Network, Vermont〔 * African Distributed University (AIDP), connected to World Information Distributed University〔 * Akamai University, Hawaii 〔 * Alberdeen University, New Mexico 〔 * Albert University, Delaware 〔 * Alexandria University, Nevada (not to be confused with Alexandria University in Egypt)〔 * Al-Hurra University (or Alhuraa University), Sweden, Netherlands; U.S. states of Michigan and Rhode Island〔〔 * Al-Ishraq University, Saudi Arabia〔 * All-American University, Nevada〔 * Allen Maxwell University, Wyoming〔 * All Saints American University, Liberia〔 * Almeda University (also called Almeda College or Almeda International University)〔〔〔〔〔 * Al Qasim University, Pakistan〔 * Al-Shurook University, Saudi Arabia〔 * Ambai University, Massachusetts〔 * Ambassador University Corporation〔〔 * American Androgogy University, Hawaii, Bolivia〔 * Americana University, Liberia〔 * American Capital University, Liberia〔 * American Central University, Wyoming〔〔(Tie to illegal degrees doesn't block Wyo. school licensing ), ''Casper Star Tribune'', March 12, 2005.〕 * American Century University, New Mexico; formerly known as Century University〔() The ACU website (accessed May 14, 2009) states that the school is accredited by Accrediting Commission International but notes “The A.C.I.
