Nexford has raised $15.3 million
#1
This might be a few weeks old, but old news is good news? Or so, I think...

Yes, this is the same Nexford we have talked about.  They're state recognized in the US and they have ASIC recognition in the UK.  Many people including myself look at ASIC with a cautious eye. 

Having said that, I think Nexford is actually doing their part, and what I mean by that is, they're trying to provide an education as inexpensively as possible for the people of under-developed nations. 

They're not seeking to be the next U of People, but they're doing something similar.... once thought of as a bad apple, seems to be blooming properly.  I'm not against or for Nexford, but I hope they keep up the good work and help those in need of a proper education.

Yes. They've been on the DEAC "Institutions to be considered" list for a while. If they make it, they will be the FIRST ASIC "accredited" school to achieve recognized US accreditation -either RA or NA. With money behind them, I'd guess that they might make it. We'll see...
