Virginia University of Lynchburg Accreditation on Warning

I agree with most of your post.

Of course there are millions of students in total who use federal student aid, but TRACS students are a small part. The largest TRACS school today might be Pensacola Christian University, with around 5000 students.

TRACS' DOED recognition may be all that matters to a given student. In my opinion TRACS' DOED recognition sufficiently establishes TRACS schools are academically credible. But students are still reasonably allowed to say distinctions between NA and RA matter to them (e.g., if they aspire to a competitive position teaching in RA), that doctrinal distinctives of TRACS matter to them (pro or con), etc.
