Does LIGS University have to hold U.S. federal accreditation?
We don't have to, as obtaining US national or regional accreditation is not mandatory in the US. It is up to each institution to decide whether to pursue it. The importance of U.S. national or federal accreditation is particularly important for U.S. students who want to study using the U.S. student loan system.
The advantage of studying at LIGS University is that tuition is fully funded by the global professional association International Career Advancement Network (ICAN) as one of the many benefits of ICAN membership, and students do not have to go into debt to obtain a quality American education.
