    I have come across a university that somehow just doesn't look right.
    The school is New World Mission Dunamis University. A website, and there are several different ones, may be found here:

    If I have read correctly, they operate an accreditation association, again, mentioned on several websites but can be seen here:

    Have any of you with experience in SA schools heard of either of these entities? Have I just misread everything?

    Looks Shady!

    Accreditation in South Africa, is governmental, through the Council on Higher Education, I believe, exclusively. For instance, South African Theological Seminary is accredited by this organization.
