Good points, all, but, I feel more trepidation now than I did before. The degree program I'm in now (Business Admin / MIS) is almost impossible to find anywhere else, plus, as I mentioned, I'm half way through and it's doubtful another institution is going to take any of the credits, although, I could try. The worst they can do is say, "no". I am concerned about the "orphan" degree. Would this mean that anybody checking on the validity of the degree is going to find it has no merit? Can the school be sued for not fulfilling it's side of the bargain (i.e. breach of contract) and by awarding empty degrees built on the premise of accreditation? Is there a school that people do recommend?
