Rochville University
Rochville University is an organization offering a "Life Experience Degree, and Certificate Program". It has been accused of being a diploma mill. The State of Texas "classifies this online college as an illegal supplier of educational credentials"〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.geteducated.com/diploma-mill-police/degree-mills-list/rochville-university-accreditation )〕 and lists it among "institutions whose degrees are illegal to use in Texas".〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.thecb.state.tx.us/index.cfm?objectid=EF4C3C3B-EB44-4381-6673F760B3946FBB )〕 The Oregon Office of Degree Authorization lists it as "fake".〔 Its operation is believed to be centered in Pakistan, and its diplomas and degree certificates have been mailed from Dubai, United Arab Emirates.〔(Dog Earns Online MBA ), GetEducated.com, September 21, 2009〕 Along with many similar enterprises, it is owned by the Karachi based company, Axact, whose main business, according to a ''New York Times'' investigation, is "to take the centuries-old scam of selling fake academic degrees and turn it into an Internet-era scheme on a global scale."
The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board has indicated that Rochville, Belford University, and the agencies from which they claim accreditation, "appear to be operated by the same people".〔Malisow, Craig, "(First Degree Fraud )", ''Houston Press'', July 20, 2006. Accessed August 17, 2006.〕 In 2012, a U.S. District Court ordered Belford University, Rochville University’s sister operation, shut down and its founder pay $22.7 million in damages.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Belford Class Action Lawsuit )〕
==Accreditation status==
Rochville University has claimed to be accredited by various organizations, but none are recognized higher education accreditors. These have included the International Accreditation Agency for Online Universities (IAAOU), the Universal Council for Online Education Accreditation (UCOEA), the Board of Online Universities Accreditation (BOUA), and the World Online Education Accrediting Commission (WOEAC). However, the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board has reported that Rochville University and the accreditation boards, "appear to be operated by the same people".〔Malisow, Craig, "(First Degree Fraud )", ''Houston Press'', July 20, 2006. Accessed August 17, 2006.〕 According to its website, the Board of Online Universities Accreditation (BOUA) has accredited only one other institution, Ashwood University,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.boua.org/inner/ashwood_university.htm )〕 which is believed to be Rochville University's sister operation.
Because Rochville University is not accredited by any recognized accreditation bodies in the United States, its degrees and credits are unlikely to be acceptable to employers or academic institutions.〔 According to Nicole Wilson of Top MBA Connect, an organization which ranks MBA programs in the United States, degrees issued from Rochville University are "worthless, since they are either fraudulent or come from schools that aren’t governed by proper standards." Jurisdictions that have restricted or made illegal the use of credentials from unaccredited schools include Oregon,〔(Unaccredited Colleges ), Oregon Office of Degree Authorization 〕〔(State mulls online learning ) by the Associated Press, ''Billings Gazette'', January 30, 2005〕 Michigan,〔(Colleges and Universities not accredited by CHEA ), Michigan Education and Children's Services〕 Maine,〔(Accredited and Non-Accredited Colleges and Universities ), "Maine’s List of Non-Accredited Post-Secondary Schools"〕 North Dakota,〔 New Jersey,〔 Washington,〔〔(Washington Higher Education Coordinating Board ), ''Washington Consumer Information''〕 Nevada,〔〔(Use of False or Misleading Degrees ) Nevada statute NRS 394.700〕 Illinois,〔 Indiana,〔 and Texas.〔(Institutions Whose Degrees are Illegal to Use in Texas ), ''Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board''〕〔(Two less doctors in the house - Hebert, Wilson back away from Ph.D.'s issued by ‘diploma mills' ), by Stephen Palkot, ''Fort Bend Herald'', September 28, 2007〕 Many other states are also considering restrictions on the use of degrees from unaccredited institutions.〔("Is Oregon the only state that disallows use of unaccredited degrees?" ), Oregon Office of Degree Authorization/ 〕
