Colleges and Universities not accredited by Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA)

As you can see this is pretty long list published by michigan.gov. The way many smaller, especially christian colleges get around this is that they create their own accreditation boards, and then tell students that they are accredited by such and such borad. This still does not solve the issue that some government offices do not accept these accreditations, as this is the case of the state of Michigan. Here is also a great resource: the official US government board of education website, that talks about how accreditation works in relation with the public offices.
