Most Universities and professional organizations around the world operate under Charted Status upgraded from the Accredited Status in order to become an independent entity exempted from the regular performance, assessment and evaluation checklist like the University of London and several tertairy institutions around the world, specially the private universities whose cost of evaluation and performance assessment checks and the related fees are not subsidized quite unlike the public or government owned universities like the University of London being one of the private Universities in the U.K under Chartered Status. Vicent University Owerenta in Abia State is one of those private Universities in Nigeria under Chartered Status.
Consequently it would be seen as though those Chartered Universities are not Accredited having been exempted from the list of Accredited Universities like the University of London and Several others in the U.K and around the world.
In another development, the names of foreign Universities are not included in the list of those indigenous Accredited or Chartered Universities in most countries due to the dichotomy existing between foreign Universities and the indigenous Universities in terms of prospective foreign students patronage seeking to gain admission into any of those Universities in the host countries whose names are published in the official Database and websites; but excluding the foreign Universities which the host countries official would regard as rivary institutions and instead will promote their indigenous Universities; unless the foreign University is legally registered and incorporated to operate as one of those indigenous Universities with local Investors as a joint venture and not One Hundred Percent foreign ownership.
Consequently, the European-American University was legally registered and incorporated in Uganda as a Chartered University in order to award her degrees to African students at an affordable cost whose fees could be higher lf she is incorporated under the Charter in the United States her country of origin with higher tax rates.
Being a foreign Chartered University, she is not included among the indigenous list of the Accredited or Chartered Universities based on the afforementioned development.
However, the Ministry of External Affairs in the host country will provide such list of both foreign Universities and foreign companies based on the Bilateral Cooperation Agreement reached between both countries; such list could be accessible through the Embassy officials of the foreign University's country of origin in the host country and not through the Ministry of Education of the Host Country dealing with the indigenous Universities Database.
However, it is necessary to indicate the region (such as State, Province, Kingdom etc) the foreign University registered in the host country to enable the Embassy official in the host country carry out their verification through the Ministry of External Affairs in accordance with your directive.
