Basically, yeah. I went to a trade school, which is required for the field I wanted to work in. Only 52 schools in the US are accredited. I got in, and was one class short of passing. The class I failed was graded to a standard of only allowing 90's (90% of answers being correct) to pass. If you got below 90 on one test, you failed the entire class. I got 83, and failed the entire class.
The next semester, the college lost accreditation. No refunds. No apologies. Nothing.
Colleges want your money, by any means necessary, and there is no real world accountability for academic fraud.

Colleges are the biggest scammers; they are just a company. They don't give a shit about you, only your money.
