THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! I cannot thank you all enough for this thread! You just saved me $34,000! I looked into Brown Mackie and was accepted the same day (Wed), was supposed to see their "financial department" today about getting the student loans and start on Monday. Then I found this board. When I talked to the director about the lack of NLNAC she tried to sell me the same "We are in the process of getting our NLNAC, we just had our 2 passing classes last month" that I've seen was told to others. I checked with NLNAC.org to see if they had in fact applied, and therefor were considered candidates for the accreditation before I contacted them again. Of course they were not on the list. When I pointed this out she didn't have an answer for me as to why and became increasingly irritated I was asking so many questions about it.
