James Monroe University
|
James Monroe International University, formerly known as James Monroe University, claims to be based in Seborga and have accreditation from the Minister of Education in Seborga and from the Distance Education Council (DEC) of India. It used to claim that it was located in Liberia and that it was be accredited by the Liberian Government. It does not appear on the IAU Universities List, and critics describe the school as a diploma mill.
According to the list of unaccredited institutions of the Office of Degree Authorization of the state of Oregon, James Monroe University is actually "operated from Washington, Arizona and perhaps New York". The Oregon office also describes it as "the new home of the St. Regis University scam using supposed Liberian approval. Oregon does not recognize this approval as valid under ORS 348.609."
