3. "Olivet" apparently operates a chain of colleges across the US

The one in NY State got in trouble last year. It seems to mainly attract students from East Asia, and investigators found that not only were some students forced to work to cover the cost of their educations, but other students made loans to the college which they had trouble collecting on. It all sounds fishy and somewhat Moon-y to me.

"Classes" that were investigated contained only a few students, with no syllabus, and were conducted--it sounded to me--online. Investigators found that the material being taught was not advanced enough to warrant its ranking.
