I am thinking about adding they are going through DETC acred process....what do yall think? --Super (talk) 01:20, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
The DETC website has a different, and perhaps more accurate info listed for their registered address than the pdf printed last month. Updated the address to TN. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 183.3.28.38 (talk) 03:19, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
I can't edit the main part of the document for some reason. The link is not showing up. But the statement that Nations University "claims to have applied for accreditation from DEC" implies that it may not be true. The Cited source from DECT clearly states that it has applied, and it is not a claim by the institution but a confirmation by the accreditor.75.223.69.194 (talk) 13:03, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
Never mind. I got it to work, and made the change.75.223.69.194 (talk) 13:06, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
As a board member of NationsUniversity, I'm changing the statement on the official name of the school, which is the one-word "NationsUniversity." Philomathes (talk) 21:14, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
It was incorporated as "NationsUniversity" and goes by that name. It may be known as "Nations University" to the extent that the single word with embedded caps is not intuitive to all. Philomathes (talk) 00:36, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
Thanks Orlady--I was about to ask what the convention would be for naming an article for an entity with such a name. I'm also updating the degree offerings, which have been streamlined. Philomathes (talk) 00:50, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
I realize that the university does not own this page, however this page has caused us grief with DETC. Furthermore, we have removed the reference you keep citing regarding the update (citation 5).(Jonroy.sloan1 (talk) 16:08, 11 February 2013 (UTC))

My name is Jon Roy Sloan, and I am the Director of Communications for NationsUniversity. I respectfully request that any mention of DETC be removed from the NU article featured in Wikipedia until we finish the accreditation process. This places an undue burden upon us. Also, the link (citation 5) has removed and is a dead link that you keep referencing. We have an agreement with DETC that we would not mention them. It is their policy not ours but they asked why we had that on the wikipedi site in violation of our agreement. Thank you.

I removed the link and the document that was originally hidden on our website. This is in regards to citation 5. We are not found on the page linked in citation 7 so it may be misleading.(173.14.107.42 (talk) 20:14, 11 February 2013 (UTC))
An anonymous IP and now a new registered user have repeatedly edited this article to change the university's location from Brentwood, Tennessee to New Orleans, Louisiana. These changes are not supported by references, as required for verifiability, and they are contradicted by information in the published sources that are cited in the article. Sources (specifically, content on Nations' website) indicate that Nations is registered in Louisiana (possibly West Monroe, Louisiana) and has a mailing address there, but is operated from Brentwood, Tennessee. Without sources to support the assertion that Nations is now operating in New Orleans, I will continue to revert edits that change its location.
However, I did remove the location from the infobox; this is not a significant detail for a school that operates solely for distance education. --Orlady (talk) 15:52, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
Some details: In 2008, a user apparently affiliated with Nations created the article and described NationsUniversity as being incorporated in Louisiana, but with offices in Brentwood, Tennessee.[1] Currently, this webpage (which I cited in the article) gives Brentwood, Tennessee, as the address for the "Board of Regents" and New Orleans only as "mailing address". The most recent student newsletter mentions Brentwood twice and Louisiana never. The address in New Orleans may be the address of the law firm that incorporated NationsUniversity in Louisiana. (See search results for other entities associated with the same street address and suite number.) --Orlady (talk) 19:01, 16 August 2013 (UTC) The current catalog[2] also has an address and phone number in Tennessee. --Orlady (talk) 19:08, 16 August 2013 (UTC)
I will direct you to our latest newsletter where we announce the address change. [3]
The announcement is on page 4 of the newsletter. I realize it takes time for caches to clear on the servers to reflect these changes. Furthermore, you will find me referenced on the NU website here: [4] and here: [5] at the bottom of the pages.--Jonroy.sloan1 0916 03SEP13 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonroy.sloan1 (talk • contribs) 14:19, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
