Is Concorde career college an accredited school?

Answer 1

I called to ask them and I was told that they are accredited by the ACCSCT or The Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges of Technology. I did not get a straight answer as far as national or regional accreditation.

Concorde Career Institute is a scam! They are not regionally accredited and they will lie to you just to get your money. It's not worth paying over 40,000 for a school that's not recognized.
