It's apparently accredited under conditions but I don't know what that means

After 1 year the class of 2021 has been reduced from 65 students to 42- some for personal reasons, some for failing and they will return a year later, and some permanently dismissed. Over a third of the students will not graduate in the expected 4 years. Draw your own conclusions. Do your own research. Is a less than 2/3 chance of graduating in 4 years worth $55,000+? If any news organization would like to contact me to verify the numbers, send me a direct message.
