Glenndale University claims accreditation from the [[National Distance Learning Accreditation Council]]; however, NDLAC is not recognized by the [[US Department of Education]] (USDE) or the [[Council on Higher Education Accreditation]](CHEA). Without USDE and CHEA recognition of the "accreditation agency" such accreditations are "bogus" to the academic community.[http://www.chea.org/pdf/fact_sheet_6_diploma_mills.pdf]

Glenndale University is an online entity that offers degrees, founded in 1997. Glenndale University is not accredited by any accreditation body recognized by its country. According to the US Department of Education, unaccredited 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.[1]

It has been listed as a diploma mill.[1] The New York Times said, "we could graduate for $500 from Glendale [sic] (not to be confused with the Glendale colleges in Arizona and California). The competing reps gave the same spiel: no classes, no accreditation but a diploma to convince any employer."[2]
