I am in the process of applying for Westwood College for a BA in game design. I have read several reviews, and I know all about their controversy and lawsuits. However, reviewers for their game design program seemed to give better review than the rest, and their free re-training for alumni is certainly a very valuable asset.
Thanks for your question and interest in Westwood College! I wanted to pass on some links that might be helpful. These are real graduates who wanted to share their experiences and stories about Westwood. You can also check out our gaming site for more information about the program.

As for our accreditation, @CAT is incorrect. Westwood College is accredited by two separate national accreditation agencies: ACCSC (Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges) and ACICS (Accrediting Council of Independent Colleges and Schools). Because our accreditation is fully recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, students have access to federal grants and loans. Nationally accredited schools are required to meet and maintain rigorous standards of educational excellence and quality assurance. Visit our website for more detailed information: http://www.westwood.edu
Let us know if you have any more questions, we are happy to help.
