Bell Mar has been around and accredited for nearly 26 years. You can't be a scam/diploma mill and be around that long. You won't be accredited or eligible for US Dept of Education financial aid, as Bel Mar is, for long if you truly are a scam school.
Bell Mar's owners have, in the last couple years experienced the deleterious effects of aging we may all experience. Subsequently, in the last couple of years the school has not be run as well as it had in the past.
Bell Mar is now open under new management (as of 6/9/10) and I invite any recent graduate with complaints to return and discuss them with me. We will do our best to correct any deficiencies in your education.
I also invite any prospective students to come in and see how we are doing at 5717 W, Cernak Rd, Cicero Il 60804.
