I would hope other national organizations are a different story. Also, not sure who to thank but, thanks for finding an existing thread... How can I move my post so it consolidates into the started thread? https://www.degreeforum.net/mybb/Thread-Accrediting-Council-for-Independent-College-and-Schools?pid=375099#pid375099 |
