My mother recently "graduated" from Kaplan with a Bachelor's degree in Substance Abuse and Addiction Counseling, after previously getting her AS in Psychology from our local community college. I tried to tell her how those places aren't*** well accredited and that she should get her money back and go somewhere else, but she wouldn't listen to me (she is more naive and gullible than she thinks she is). Before I knew it she had got her degree, and actually has a mental health tech job now at a local detox facility where they are helping her train to get her counselor licensing.
As her daughter, and knowing about all the bs of these places, I was very worried that she would go through all that work and money and end up getting laughed at when she presented her "credentials", but this actually turned out okay and she has a great job that she loves and is excelling after years of unemployment and getting turned down for job after job.
