[edit] Accreditation
California Graduate School of Theology is not accredited by any accreditation body recognized by its country. As such, its degrees and credits might not be acceptable to employers or other institutions, and use of degree titles may be restricted or illegal in some jurisdictions. [6] This school is unaccredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, the primary body responsible for college and university accreditation in the region. It is also unaccredited by the state of California, although the California Bureau for Private Postsecondary and Vocational Education has "approved" the school to "operate" in California, but it is unaccredited.[7]
