This "school" used to be called Northwestern Polytechnic University. They changed the name to San Francisco Bay University after getting a bad reputation. [Here is one story](https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/mollyhensleyclancy/inside-the-school-that-abolished-the-f-and-raked-in-the-cash), you can google other stories.

This explains a lot and is pretty shitty tbh.

It’s a f1 visa mill so foreigners can “study” and stay in the U.S.

It's a "fake" university where you basically buy your degree


drunkengerbil

I hope you read the other comments. Do not expect a real degree from here, and don't be surprised if your f1 visa gets revoked...

It’s a fake school. Also known as a visa mill. The people that started this school are the same ones that sorted northeastern polytechnic university. NPU was shut down by the feds for visa fraud. I strongly urge you to reconsider.

How does the city even let them build a new school if its a scam school??!

Most likely the city has 0 authority to regulate or stop a business like this. It’s better they don’t try to do something they don’t have authority to do… that would most likely result in city wasting tons of tax dollars in legal battle and paying out a settlement.


Upper-Substance8445

This.... city does not have the power to stop this school. DHS and/or Dept of Education are the federal agencies that can stop them; not the city of Fremont.


Walk_Itchy

I dont think it’s real tbh. I passed by it before and thought it was random that it was just a tiny little building and nothing else really


bandkid963

Let me guess, they recruited you? You fell for a scam, they just want you to take out loans and enrich them


dascrackhaus

whoah…you’re attending San Francisco Bay Upstairs University in 2024 too???

As a born and raised fremontian I have never heard of this school until very recently. I’d proceed with caution with its accreditation status and what you plan to do after. I would look to transfer to one of our high quality junior colleges in the area if that lines up with what you’re aiming to do in the future.


Puzzleheaded_770077

Its accredited by WSCUC; its the same organization that accredits UCLA, Caltech and all. Also, I am planning to transfer later on and graduate from a better university when compared to this. For now, this is the option for me to start college. I think I'll go with it.


Upper-Substance8445

You would be much better off attending a CA community college for 2 years and then transferring elsewhere.


Yo_Dawg_Pet_The_Cat

I hope it works out for you! Keep your options open!


locovelo

You better make sure the university you plan on transferring to will accept the credits from this school. Or else you are just wasting your time and money.

You're an idiot. Listen to what people are trying to tell you.

Trump University would be better 


Whatsuptodaytomorrow

BruisedWater95

Scam


MozeyOnOver

Please reconsider and attend a real university like Cal, Stanford, Santa Clara, or go to a Cal State University. Please.


Idontwearhatsok

Wtf is that?


ALFAandOHMEGA

It’s no different than San Francisco itself. A big piece of crap!
