    It is NOT accredited, see the list at the link below listing all known un accredited universities.

    Belford claims to be accredited by 2 organizations but they are both fake. The US Department of Education www.ed.gov has a link to a list compiled by the Oregan Student Assistance Commission and that's what was posted below.

    Office of Degree Authorization

    Now FAKE is not really a word I use for some of these, they are merely non accredited schools. They do give you exactly what they advertise a piece of paper with a degree that has litte value

    laurencedrage, yes, the US Department of Education keeps track of all schools, for non-accredited schools they refer you to a list maintained by the Oregon Student Assistance Commission that I posted above but always go to the US Department of Education first
