Verify the CURRENT legal status and operating situation of any institution, and your government's travel advice, BEFORE making any plans.

Always confirm a university's current accreditation with the named national authority, and that the qualification is recognised in the country where you intend to use it, before enrolling or paying any fees. AlmiStudy records information to help you check — it is not an endorsement.
