  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Nations University Concerns

:confused:

I just sent my registration fee to nations university the other day, as they have a certificate program that I am very interested in taking.

I know it's not accredited and they were also dropped from DETC accreditation process as well.

I pay the $25 fee and they send me a student ID and password. I try it and it doesn't work! I send a request to have it changed or to have it fixed and still not word.

Is this how Nations University works? Should I be concerned? I don't want to send them $480 tech fees if they won't even respond to a simple password fix!

Since the account is a tech issue, make sure that you talk with the tech support staff, not admissions or academic staff. That might result in emails passed around and lost.

On this page they show this as the tech link:
NationsUniversity®

I skimmed some reviews, and they are not good. Some of the problems are due to online study requiring a lot of reading, but also unannounced changes in policy, aid, and billing. One site gathered a 63% recommend rate. More than one person said their free $0 + tech fees were later charged at the full tuition rate.

Since it is not accredited, the degree might not necessarily improve your chances of getting work in a field. You can find information in so many ways these days, to build your own skills. It can show that you meet deadlines and committed to mastering a body of information.

What you experienced is not unusual, but it is a sign that systems are not organized or workers are too overloaded to respond. Tuition pays salaries, and if tuition is this low, then staff might not be able to sustain a thriving, responsive relationship with students.

Even if they started with great motives and ideals, it doesn't seem to be an organized place.

Still, some reviews were positive.
