Virginia University of Lynchburg Accreditation on Warning

[ss20ts]

The main reason I didn't bother jumping on the ship when they were just $15K a few years ago is because I wanted RA options over NA ones... Even though NA options are better now than before and the CHEA/USDOE doesn't differentiate the NA vs RA as much, I still am more in favor of RA (80% of the time) over NA (20% for those programs that can't be found elsewhere cheaply).  There are only a handful of NA options I like, mainly from DEAC institutions...

While USDOE doesn't distinguish between NA and RA currently doesn't mean that they won't again in the future nor does it mean that individual states and colleges don't care. They definitely care. An NA degree in many fields will not allow you to sit for licensing in many fields in my state. With several of the NA accreditors having issues over the last few years, I'm not surprised to see states and colleges still make the distinction that RA is what they require.
