Universities boost revenue by partnering with unregulated, for-profit providers. But when a boot camp went bust, some students took the fall.

The partnership was approved by Dominican’s accreditor, Western Association of Schools and Colleges Senior College and University Commission, or WSCUC, in a special setup that allowed Dominican to essentially sponsor Make School and help it move quickly toward independent accreditation. This arrangement allowed Make School students to get federal financial aid.

That contention is “vigorously disputed” by Dominican, according to a statement provided by its spokesperson. The statement adds that the applied computer science program was developed in full compliance with the accreditor’s standards and is certified by the Department of Education. Dominican also says that, before being contacted by The Hechinger Report, it was not aware of SBPC’s allegations.

She had earned a bachelor’s degree in finance two decades earlier, and Make School promised that it could help her land a good job. So, for an entire year, Graziosi spent 10 hours a day at her computer, listening to instructors. She found most to be inadequate at explaining the material. To complete homework assignments, she spent hours each night teaching herself the material, with help from Coursera and YouTube tutorials.
