It doesn't matter which bank or card you are using for that transaction, if it isn't exactly what you're looking for, get that chargeback and refund. If you need to, go up that chain of command and speak with the credit card company directly. Good luck!

Always a good sign when the academic advisor, bursar, and person after whom the university is named are the same guy.

Not to forget also accreditor and university's both foremost professor and foremost doctoral student.
I didn't notice previously, it is also possible to purchase a honorary degree, special discount ends today.

ULC (Universal Life Church) was a good honorary degree back in the day at $25 for vanity purposes though, wasn't used for anything else... I think that would have been more worth it than an unaccredited diploma mill, probably can print out one better, cheaper and nicer looking too.

You can now transfer in 100% of your credits. After sending multiple follow-up emails, they offered to transfer me into this pathway.

Ah yes, exactly what I was thinking, they're selling you their diploma without any work (or equivalent evaluation).
Let me get my printer ready, I'm going to offer you a huge discount compared to their current fees!
Bachelor’s Degree: $1,320 One-Time Fee [Special Discount] - BJ's cost is only $10.
Master’s Degree: $660 One-Time Fee [Special Discount] - BJ's cost is only $10.
Doctorate: $2,500 One-Time Fee [Special Discount] - BJ's cost is only $10.
Oh, did I say, I'll just charge you $10 for each? BTW, It'll have my stamp favorite of approval!
It'll have more utility than what GIU offers, as you can combine this with my freebie Honorary degree!

Eh, you were speaking positively when you read they were going for ASIC accreditation. The question is, do you think attaining that accreditation will be enough for a positive evaluation from Validential?

Not really, as per my post #17, I'll be more interested in them after they get the ASIC or BAC, plus ACBSP instead of candidate status, and have that special price at $1K USD. We'll be talking further if it ever gets close to that, otherwise, there were a couple Spanish DBA/PhD that could be had for $3K USD. It's just $500 more expensive than their $2500 Doctorate degree offering, those offerings should provide a similar favorable evaluation as ENEB for at the doctorate level.

If I were you and could not get my refund, I would go the VAE route and try to cross validate with other schools if your goal is to have a mainstream and fully recognized accredited degree. Don’t let your funds that have already been paid go to waste.

Oh yeah, I did so. I love how the certificate looks framed!
