No indication this institution is accredited, also can't really find any indications of it passing WP:NORG or WP:GNG. Please keep in mind that WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES does not provide a carte blanche for all schools, even those claiming to be higher education. It might be a degree mill, and we should be careful not to provide legitimacy to such scams. Also note a red flag - no Brazilian wiki entry for this, generally most reputable higher education institutions will get a local wiki stub before English one.

  • Delete: Per Nom. Thoughts of legitimizing a degree mill scam would not be good. If something is notable (sourced) as being a scam we can call it that. Being sourced only through the "External links" leaves no option to me but to remove the article. We avoid wording like "claiming to be higher education" and "appears to be a seminary" by providing multiple reliable independent sources. Otr500 (talk)
