Foreign Colleges
Might Be Fakes,
Students Warned
An increasing quantity of pro
motional material from foreign
schools and colleges has prompted
the Southern Association of Col
leges and Schools to urge stu
dents to investigate thoroughly
foreign institutions before enroll
ing.
A Southern Association state
ment said some foreign colleges
and schools are using high pres
sure tactics to sell programs of
questionable academic quality and
have deceived American students
and some college officials.
Students planning to study a-
broad and who plan to transfer
the credit to an American insti
tution should first determine whe
ther the college or university in
the United States will accept the
credits, the statement continued.
Failure to check in advance the
acceptability of courses offered
by foreign institutions can easily
result in the loss of credits, it
was pointed out.
The Southern Association, the
accrediting agency for colleges
and schools in 11 Southern states,
also issued a similar warning to
high school students planning to
enroll in summer programs offer
ed by foreign high schools.
“This warning,” the statement
said, “should not be considered a
blanket indictment of foreign in
stitutions for many of these
schools and colleges offer quality
educational programs."
