Ashworth - Ashworth College - Ashworth University Ashworth = Diploma Mill; Degree Mill; Scam School Internet

I am a high school history teacher. Not only have both my own children attended Ashworth's online school. The oldest got several scholarships to Auburn University and was admitted without any problem. 

Ashworth College is accredited by the DETC and recognized by The U.S. department of Education U.S. Army. etc, and also recognized by CHEA and its member of HETA. Check for yourself.

My story I received and Associates Degree from Ashworth Enrolled in the U.S. Army and then Transferred my credits to A Regional Accredited College.

A lot of Regional Accredited Colleges do not Accept National Accredits college credits from DETC or ACICS ( the two major national accredited agency both recognized by CHEA and U.S. Department of Education)

It is not an Ashworth problem okay it is a feud between RA accredited schools and NA accredited Schools. RA schools don't want to accept their credits because of business they want to keep having a monopoly.

Detc is the best National accreditation and Ashworth is Accredited by them. It would be great if Ashworth was also Regionally Accredited and I believe they are working on getting their RA Accreditation. Contact them and tell them to get RA Accredited.

Also contact Department of education and tell them that they must stop RA accredited colleges from just refusing National accredited college credits.

Contact DETC also and tell them about your issues




RA schools that I know that take Ashworth College
( their are more you have to look)

Ashworth is Accredited okay. To transfer your credits you have to find a college that will take their credits not all Regional Accredited Colleges Accept Ashworth Credits okay. Their are a lot of Schools that take Ashworth credits

Lynn.edu
bellevue.edu
Grand Canyon University

just to name a few

Distance learning accreditation means nothing!

Regional
National

Those are the two major types of accreditation. Regional is the type of accreditation that is WIDELY accepted for transfer. National is almost never accepted without great expense to you.

I have posted numerous times on this subject under the ashworth posts, but it bears repeating. They need to get it together and get regionally accredited.
