Is there one accreditation institution that is better than another? Is there a difference between ACICS and NCCU?
Different accreditation agencencies have agreements with other schools and sometimes other accreditation agencies to transfer credits. ACICS (Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools.) NWCCU (Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities ) It all depends on whether your institition will accept the other institutions credits – the same agency will assure you of that, but different ones have to come to an agreement. Of course, costs come into play…. NWCCU is expensive http://www.nwccu.org/Process/Dues%20and%20Fees/Dues%20and%20Fees.
