You're welcome to research their methodology if you'd like.
But I'm sure the AAU yanked their accreditation just for grins.

Their criteria are as follows:
1. quality of teaching- As I mentioned earlier, how did they profile all professors from over 600 universities?
2. career prospects- Read previous post. Other factors are included that are out of a university's realm of influence.
3. graduation rates- If you've ever been to college, you will realize how worthless this criterion is. How is it the responsibility of the institution to make sure grown men and women complete their schooling? That's just silly.
4. student debt-loads- Really?
