Should someone study from "University of the People"?

[Ol argedco luciftias]

Most universities and colleges have some israeli businessman in their administration, so that is not something only in the school you are talking about. I don't know about that school, so I can't tell you if it's a scam. But many regular schools also offer online classes. Find a school that is a good balance of the cheapest one you can find, and also still being high quality.
