UoPeople Increased their fees
#10
The university 1st and 2nd attempt at regional accred got rejected for two main reasons, 1) student grading (or more accurately lack of instructor involvement in student outcomes) and 2) 

Quote:CFR 3.4:
The Commission specifically requested that the university develop a pragmatic, detailed,
and integrated multi-year financial and business planning model that ensures all critical functions
of the institution are sufficiently supported to keep pace with growth. Since 2021, total
enrollment has increased from 103,000 students in AY2021 to 155,000 in AY2022. Additional
discussion is included in Part II of the team report.

WASC simply told them, you guys are broke and there is no way you can maintain this growth just with bill gates donations and you have to hire specific staff for x, y and z. So currently they have to curb a bit on their scholarship and raise their fees while they seek more funding. Actually WASC forbade them in the first report from offering grad degrees until they rectified that issue, so as far as I can tell, they are simply following up on the plan. It sucks but unless they get more donations, that's how it's gonna be.
