I can tell you that no regionally accredited college or university will accept coursework from an unaccredited institution.
Additional Information:I searched through 550 schools to find 50 that had a process to consider unaccredited degrees--9%. Maybe beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Had I checked with first tier schools (only) perhaps the acceptance rate would have been worse or even better if only at the fourth tier schools. I guess one man's poke in the eye with a sharp stick is another's eye massage. Or perhaps it mostly depends on what we want to find or where we hunt.From what I could tell mostly case by case. Here are a few examples:
University of Hawaii at Manoa: "Degrees from unaccredited institutions will be evaluated on a case by case basis."
Phoenix Seminary: "Graduates of Unaccredited institutions, when accepted, are placed on academic probation for their first year of study at Phoenix Seminary........etc."
Ohio State University: "This classification is assigned for one or more of the following reasons. The applicant has: "1-A baccalaureate or professional degree from an unaccredited college or university."
Beacon University: "Graduates from unaccredited institutions may be accepted conditionally."
University of Idaho: "GRE general appitude scores if bachelor's degree is from an unaccredited institution."
Seattle Pacific University: "SPU will therefore, review credentials from unaccredited institutions at the students request."
Liberty University : "Applicants who hold a bachelor's degree from an unaccredited institution may be admitted to some master's degree programs on Academic Probation Status."
Arkansas State University : "Or whose baccalaureate degree is from an unaccredited institution, may be granted Conditional Admission Status after.....etc."
Florida State University: Unaccredited Undergraduate Degree: "If you have your undergraduate degree from an unaccredited institution, but your GRE scores meet the "Minimum" requirement, we can consider your application."
American Indian University: "Transfer of credit from non-accredited colleges will be awarded under the following conditions....etc."
University of Oregon: "A student from an unaccredited institution, or one that offers the equivalent of bachelor's degree instruction but not the degree itself, may be consdiered for admission under special procedures."
Auburn University: "Students transferring from an unaccredited institution may be granted provisional credit. When such credit is allowed, the final amount of credit will be determined upon completion by the student of one year of work at Auburn University....etc."
Eastern Oregon University: "Course work taken at a non-accredited institution will be evaluated but not applied until the completion pf 35 EOU credits."
Troy State University, Dothan AL.: "Students transferring from unaccredited institutions who have earned an overall grade point average of 2.0 (4.0 scale) or better may be granted provisional admission...etc." **Troy also said it will not accept DETC accredited degrees but would work with me on an unaccredited degree. (strange that)
Some of the schools don't say no--but say send the transcripts and and xxxx number of dollars and we will let you know. So who really knows--9% -- 15%-- 20%-- no way to know. Union Institute and University said they would have to see the details first.
I transferred credits from a state approved school to two DETC accredited schools. They asked no questions and I didn't argue with them. My wild guess?? maybe as many as 20% of accredited schools would consider the transfer--but that's just a guess. Many seem to be willing to listen--especially if you are serious--willing to pay and send them some signed papers. The final answer I don't know--but if you look long enough you can find one who will. And one is all you need. Liberty University

∙ 13y agoAny college will accept diplomas from recognized, legitimate, accredited schools, of which there are many. It's the non-recognized, false, diploma-mill type accredited schools, whose diplomas aren't recognized by other schools or businesses the student applies for work at.
You can apply for any academic program after achieving a diploma from any reputable institution.
Accredited high school diplomas are accepted in all colleges across the country no matter which zipcode you live in.
Your high school diploma is not a guarantee to get into any college. Colleges have their own selection criteria. If it is a private school with accredited diploma then yes all colleges accept such diplomas.
Usually colleges do not provide accreditation to other colleges or schools. Accreditation is provided by accreditation agencies. Most colleges accept accredited high school diplomas, degrees and certifications. Pennford is an accredited online school so yes it is recognized by most colleges.

In most cases a US diploma will be accepted by Canadian colleges.
None. NCICS is not, I repeat, NOT recognized as an authentic accreditation agency. Please refer to ACICS.org or edu.org for more information on accreditation.
Online high schools and colleges are just as legitimate and accredited as other schools and colleges and their diplomas are generally accepted everywhere. However, admission to a university does not depend solely on where you previously studied. However, admission in a college cannot be rejected just based on studying from an online high school.
