Adison Highschool review: FRAUD

Adison Highschool claims that they are located in Houston, Texas. I called the Texas Department of Education and they personally told me that this school is not accredited with the U.S. Department of Education. If you call Adison, they will tell you that the blogs telling you that their school is a scam are blogs written by their competetors. I can tell you now that I am not a competetor. When you do the live chat and ask for an address they will then tell you that online schools dont have an address. Which is BS. I've decided to post all my live chats with the school on this blog. If you read these conversations you will see how they try to steer you from the truth. If you take their online test to receive your diploma, BEWARE. They give you the correct answers and let you re-take the test so you will NO MATTER WHAT, pass the test. I've called 16 colleges and they have all told me that Adison School is not accredited and they WILL NOT accept the diploma. I also have a military contact who also told me the same exact thing.
Here is the ACTUAL Live Chat I had.
NOTE: The first chat is the one I had after I passed the test. I passed this test in under 20 minutes..because they gave me all the correct answers..
The 2nd chat was to try to ask questions and I was ignored and then cut off because they did not want to answer my questions about their accredidation.

As you can seem it's very hard for them to give you an actual legitimate excuse as to why nobody can back them up on their accredidation. PLEASE BEWARE. Save your $300.00 and study for your GED. In order to receive an actual HS diploma YOU HAVE TO DO THE WORK! It's dissapointing but true. Don't buy into this scam. You WILL be let down. I can guarantee this.
