Illegal degrees in Oregon (奧勒岡州調查之違法學校)

Illegal suppliers of uncertain status (U)

Unaccredited U.S. entities that appear to supply degrees but have not been classified by ODA owing to insufficient information.

Basis for classification

Classifications are based on the best information available to ODA at the time of the most recent revision of the ODA web site. U.S. entities that consider themselves misclassified may apply for an evaluation by ODA under the terms set forth in OAR 583-050-0031.

Foreign entities that consider themselves misclassified may provide evidence of their status to ODA, including proof that they have approval from a foreign government equivalent to U.S. accreditation. Such proof must at a minimum include a copy of the school𠏋 application for approval, a copy of the evaluation upon which approval was based, the names of the evaluators and a statement from the national education authority indicating that all degrees issued by the school are valid for use within the host country. Any such application must be accompanied by a $400 evaluation fee.

Substandard Schools (S)

"Substandard School" means an unaccredited entity that offers credentials purported to be degrees without requiring the type and level of academic work typically needed to earn a degree. An unaccredited entity is a substandard school if it has any one of the following characteristics: (a) issues degrees without requiring any substantial student academic work. (b) Issues degrees based solely on the student's life experience or portfolio without requiring any college-level work submitted to and evaluated by faculty with appropriate academic degrees from accredited institutions. (c) Issues degrees without requiring that at least 80 percent of student work for which credit is given be college level work appropriate for the degree. (d) Issues degrees using more than 20 percent of required credits based on the student's life experience. (e) Issues degrees using more than 20 percent of credits transferred from an unaccredited school, unless the transferring school is approved by ODA. (f) Issues degrees without at least 80 percent of student work for credit being evaluated by faculty with accredited degrees or degrees from an ODA-approved school one level above the level of degree issued to the student, or holding an appropriate professional degree or doctorate. (g) Issues degrees without requiring at least 30 hours of student work (combined cumulative in and out of class, including labs and practica) per quarter credit hour (45 hours per semester credit hour) awarded. Award of credit for achieving appropriate scores on ODA-approved nationally normed college-level examinations such as CLEP, Advanced Placement or New York Regents meets this standard.

Diploma Mills (D)

"Diploma mill" or "degree mill" means an unaccredited school that meets any one of the following conditions. (a) Issues degrees without requiring any student academic work. (b) Issues degrees based solely on the student's life experience or portfolio without requiring any college-level work submitted to and evaluated by faculty with appropriate academic degrees from standard institutions. (c) Issues degrees using more than 50 percent of required credits based on the student's life experience or portfolio.

Illegal Foreign Suppliers (F)

The degree suppliers listed below that are not in the U.S. have been identified by ODA as not meeting the statutory requirements in ORS 348.609 for degree use in Oregon. In some cases ODA has been able to determine that the supplier is a diploma mill, in which case it carries a 璌? In many cases the supplier𠏋 actual status cannot be determined, beyond a failure to meet the statutory requirement, in which case it carries an 焅?which signifies that the degrees it issues are of unknown status (either Substandard or Diploma Mill) but fall below the standard required under Oregon law owing to the absence of the foreign equivalent of U.S. accreditation.
