Is Belford University a recognized accredited university?
Answer:
Belford University is an organization offering online unaccredited degrees for "life experience". The organization maintains a post office box in Humble, Texas, but its certificates are mailed from the United Arab Emirates.
Belford University is not accredited by any accrediting agency recognized by the United States Department of Education (USDE) or Council on Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA). Neither of the organizations from which Belford claims accreditation, the International Accreditation Agency for Online Universities (IAAOU) and the Universal Council for Online Education Accreditation (UCOEA), are recognized accreditation associations of higher learning. Without recognized accreditation, Belford's degrees and credits might not be acceptable to employers or other academic institutions, and use of degree titles may be restricted or illegal in some jurisdictions. Jurisdictions that have restricted or made illegal the use of credentials from unaccredited schools include Oregon, Michigan, Maine, North Dakota, New Jersey, Washington, Nevada, Illinois, Indiana, Texas and Korea. Many other states are also considering restrictions on the use of degrees from unaccredited institutions.
Personally, I was approved, within 24 hours, for a degree in medicine based on my previous experience, 17 years as a hospital janitor. When I did not enroll, they sent me numerous emails lowering their tuition rates. No legitimate university does this.

- No, Belford University is essentially a "diploma mill" and is not properly accredited. At no "real" university is it possible for to complete a degree in a matter of days.
- Not at all its just a rip off, their toll free numbers are routed to other corner of the world you never know. And if you ask them about regular phone number they would never give you one because they can not as they are not even in states.
- Belford University is NOT recognized as a legitimate university. See Houston Press article at the Related Link below.
