Synopsis
Is that college or seminary you are considering a credible school? Walston's Guide identifies hundreds of good schools through which students can earn Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctoral degrees off campus. For many school counselors, administrators, registrars, accrediting agencies, denominations, employers, and prospective students, Walston's Guide has become the standard by which Christian distance learning is evaluated. ~ A "must read" when conducting thorough background work. I recognized many of my alma maters, and I felt right at home with L.I.A.R.S. [a bogus organization identified in the book]. In fact, I believe I even met some of their school officials, when I investigated Degree Mills for the FBI. Allen Ezell, FBI Special Agent (Retired), headed the agency's diploma mill task force known as DipScam Walston's Guide is an excellent and comprehensive resource for identifying and describing both accredited and non-accredited distance learning degree programs . . . It is used by this office, along with other widely recognized higher education directories. Dr. Russell G. Fitzgerald, Executive Director, Transnational Association of Christian Colleges and Schools Walston's Guide serves as one of our primary sources of information in responding to inquiries. We cannot overstate its usefulness to us! Dr. Randall E. Bell, Associate Director, Association for Biblical Higher Education Walston's Guide is the first place I look when I need a tough but fair evaluation and description of a school offering religious degrees by distance learning. It is a most valuable resource for students, registrars, human resource professionals, and the media. Dr. John B. Bear, Author of Bear's Guide To Earning Degrees Nontraditionally ~ Dr. Rick Walston is well known as an expert in Christian distance learning.
