The administrators of this school need to add to their website that it is not regionally accredited and credits will not be accepted at 4 year colleges any states. Further research shows only colleges dedicated to religion and technical careers accept credits from this school. They should tell potential students of this before they have students apply.Business response

On November 1, 2019, the ****************** of ********* released final rules and regulations regarding Accrediting Agencies. As per the Federal Register / Vol. 84, No 212: In general, these final regulations will simplify the labeling of agencies to better reflect their focus. Therefore, the ********** will no longer categorize agencies as regional or national; we will instead include them under a combined umbrella identified as institutional or nationally recognized. The terms regionally accredited and nationally accredited related to institutional accreditation will no longer be used or recognized.
A copy of the final rules and regulations may be found here: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2019-11-01/pdf/2019-23129.pdf
Hawaii Medical College is accredited by ACCET the ******************* for Continuing ********* and Training. ACCET is a U.S. ********** of ********* Recognized Agency.
As per Hawaii Medical College Catalog on page 23, TRANSFER OF CREDITS TO OTHER INSTITUTIONS
Students should be aware that the transfer of courses is determined by the receiving institution, and therefore cannot be guaranteed by Hawaii Medical College. Students considering transferring to an unaffiliated school have the responsibility to determine whether that school will accept Hawaii Medical College courses. Hawaii Medical College encourages students to make this determination as early as possible. Hawaii Medical College does not imply, promise, or guarantee transferability of its courses to any institution.A link to catalog may be found here: https://www.*******/college-catalog/
