Is alford high school online diploma accepted?

Answer 1

There are a numbers of factors that determine the worth of an academic credential and the school's reputation is one of those. But in realistic terms, graduates coming out of a school having the same school name on their certificates don't get to similar positions, be it their academics or careers. It all depends upon how well you capitalize upon opportunities and make your resume stronger using your own abilities. The school only gets you as far as a first interview and after that everything depends upon your own potential. The diploma you earn from this school might open up the avenues for you but in the end it all rests on how you make the most out of it.

Answer 2

You come across anybody looking for a reputable school to study online and the first question asked is about accreditation status (and it is not just the case with online schools, take any school for that matter). Not surprisingly though, because it indeed is one of the ways to check the authenticity of the institution. What students do want to know here is about the benefits of earning a degree or certificate from a particular institution and the implications that it will have on their academic and career prospects. But one of the misconceptions in this regard is "the name that sounds GRAND is indeed GRAND". This however or rather unfortunately is not the case in real world. Students get intimidated by impressive names of accreditation bodies that carry no weight. People perceive that agencies having impressive names or explicitly mentioning 'International' or 'Global' depict international recognition which is not necessarily true. Organizations that sound too BIG turn out to be the biggest disappointment. What people forget to realize is that International Accreditation Agencies wouldn't be going around distributing accreditation statuses to high schools operating within a country or state. They grant accreditation candidacy to only the best educational institutions (universities to be precise) having campuses and affiliations all over the world. In realistic terms, accreditation of a national or regional level for a high school; such as Alford High School's accreditation from NAAHE (National Accreditation Association for Higher Education), is equally good because it is a proof that that the school is nationally or regionally recognized and a testimony enough to get its graduates into any top tier University around the world. Schools that are legitimately accredited on a national or regional level are as good as they can get and should be the preferred choice for anyone.

Answer 3

The accreditation agencies of online schools work in collaboration with foreign ministries dealing with international academic affairs to examine the educational standards of these schools and grant accreditation status accordingly. Alford High School is an online school and accredited by an agency named NAAHE. This agency is an independent and private academic reviewing body that is affiliated with higher education departments of a number of countries including U.S to grant accreditation candidacy to institutions that operate online and have international presence. It is necessary for online schools because there are students coming in from different states and countries hence it requires a unanimous consensus from all relevant authorities.

Answer 4

Alford is an online school offering high school diploma program. It is an accredited school with a large student body. Looks like any other online school to me.
