Is Ashworth University a scam

Answer 1

There appears to be too much inconsistency in what different organizations are saying about the institution. The College Board makes no reference as to the accreditation of the institution, while answers.com indicates it has a regional accreditation. The College Board site also states the school is a two year institution, but yet also states the school offers an associates, bachelors, and masters degree. I would recommend you search for a college or university with more of a stable history, rather than have the possibility of future problems. Make sure whichever institution you choose, that the school has a regional accreditation.

Ashworth College:

I did intense research on the Ashworth University (now Ashworth College) in 2006 to 2007. The College is located in Norcross, Ga., USA. It is accredited by the DETC (Distance Education and Training Council, which is an accrediting commission recognised by the US Dept. of Education).

The Ashworth College also appears in the US Dept of Education's list of accredited institutes and universities. The Education Dept of the US Consulate General in Dubai, UAE (where I live) also confirmed it as an accredited degree granting institution.

Even Facebook's pop-up list of universities contain Ashworth University in their records. My ongoing information updates about the Ashworth College add to the fact that it is an accredited, credible and prestigious university.

I myself am a student of the Ashworth College. (http:/wwwzperiodzashworthcollegezperiodzedu). Even though I have not been able to continue with the degree I am enrolled in for personal reasons, I know the College is genuine. The US Dept. of Education cannot lie.

Please do not confuse Ashworth College with an unaccredited diploma mill functioning elsewhere and which is using the name "Ashworth" in its online advertising. That diploma mill's name is "Ashwood University" (http:/wwwzperiodzashwooduniversityzperiodznet). There maybe others trying to copy the Ashworth name.
