Many university admission seekers do fall into unaccredited institutions unknowingly. This can be as a result of their lack of enlightenment, or their over-enthusiasm about gaining admission. The consequence of studying in such unaccredited institutions is not only the waste of money, but also the time and effort spent.<\/p>\n
