- Delete. This article lacks sufficient sourcing, failing WP:GNG and WP:NORG. If there is not consensus to delete, consider redirecting to List of unaccredited institutions of higher education. While one might argue there is value in retaining this article as a warning to potential customers of this fraudulent business, unfortunately diploma mills proliferate like fungus and simply change names every so often to continue to operate. The Council for Higher Education Accreditation and the United States Department of Education used to maintain lists of diploma mills, but today when I searched I didn't find those lists, only lists of accredited institutions and a few articles about degree mills and accreditation mills.

- Delete This clearly fails the notability guidelines. I'm not sure what else to say about it then that. --Adamant1 (talk) 05:44, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
- Delete Fails notability and already on list List of unaccredited institutions of higher education. Gusfriend (talk) 06:47, 26 February 2022 (UTC)
