Does Title IV approval for financial aid eligibility by the Foreign Schools Team at the U.S. Department of Education mean that a foreign school is academically sound?
No. The Department of Education’s foreign school evaluation process is focused on financial issues. Although the department states that approved foreign schools meet basic standards, in fact such evaluations should be considered unreliable and insufficient to demonstrate equivalence to an accredited U.S. college.
