ACBSP provides programmatic accreditation, and while it is valuable for business programs, that would still mean the program lacks institutional accreditation, in which case you're still dealing with an unaccredited school and would have an unaccredited degree (not taking into account the possible results of a foreign credential evaluation which may deem it equivalent to an accredited degree). ACBSP has also accredited some stinkers, so keep that in mind.

Regarding that and Validential or any other evaluator, as we've learned, some (maybe more) U.S. evaluators base their equivalency decisions on what the foreign program offers versus a domestic program rather than on the accreditation status of the foreign program in its own home country, so that's how a degree from an unaccredited school in one country can be deemed equivalent to U.S. RA through evaluation.

I'm not against unaccredited schools. Every school had to start unaccredited, but this one has one big red flag to start: they claim to be "institutionally accredited by ASIC" but ASIC is not an institutional accreditor, at least not a recognized one. Their authorized function in the UK is for immigration purposes, not institutional accreditation. Usually, when a school uses ASIC as their accreditor, it's either a scam or an operation run by people who have no idea what they're doing.

Then there is pricing. The price for the Doctorate is ridiculous for an unaccredited foreign school. 20,000 Euros? No, thanks. Shouldn't be more than 5 or 6,000 Euros and even that's pushing it. Even the Professional Doctorate for 9,999 is too much imho. Their Master's degrees are 1,500 which is actually a reasonable price for an unaccredited program.

I'd wait for unpaid reports on its quality before even thinking about it, I wouldn't deal with any of their Doctorates either so it would have to be a different and less expensive program before I'd even consider the school.
