Does anyone know if this school is a good school? I would like to know the background of it.

Here is some info from former students:

Warren National University - Online Degree Reviews (http://www.onlinedegreereviews.org/college/warren-national-university/)

Here is info about the University itself:

Warren National University - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kennedy-Western_University)

It is not an accredited institution, which will more than likely cause problems when applying for other schools or employment.

Hope that helps.

As John Snow said, it is not accredited. If you earn credits at this school and transfer to an accredited school, those credits will not transfer and you will be required to take the courses again.

As a college instructor, I implore you to run the other way as fast as you can. Besides being illegal in many states, you can read all about Kennedy Western University a/k/a Warren National University in any of the following articles and Senate investigational hearings:

*"Federal Employees Have Obtained Degrees from Diploma Mills and Other Unaccredited Schools, Some at Government Expense."

*"Diploma Mills are Easily Created and Some Have Issued Bogus Degrees to Federal Employees at Government Expense."

*"Bogus Degrees and Unmet Expectations: Are Taxpayer Dollars Subsidizing Diploma Mills?"

Other reading items on Kennedy Western University a/k/a Warren National University from various other exposes and news articles.

*"It May Take Hours, But You Too Can Earn a University Degree"

*"When Elected Officials Aren't What They Seem
Texas officials and Pennsylvania cats tout misleading credentials"

Whatever your major, there is a legitimate school offering the program online. From the Senate hearing that investigated them this is how they work (you can find in one of the above articles.) 1. They employ a lot of telemarketers, about 60% of their employees. 2. They will waive about 50% of any degree for any "life experience". 3. A graduate "class" taken by an undercover agent, consisted of 1 open book exam where she picked terms out of the glossary.
