The DOD had actually banned this racket from Military facilities back in '15. Dirty Uniparty RINOs are in bed with these predatory$$ "Universities".
Defense Dept. bans University of Phoenix recruiters from bases October 9, 2015 University of Phoenix Stadium is a multipurpose football stadium located in Glendale, Arizona. It is the home of the Arizona Cardinals of the National Football League (NFL) and the annual Fiesta Bowl.
The Department of Defense announced Thursday that the University of Phoenix is barred from recruiting on military facilities and troops can no longer use federal money for classes at the for-profit school.

University of Phoenix banned from recruiting at military events October 13, 2015 After a scathing report from the Center for Investigative Reporting came out earlier this year, Senator Dick Durbin called on the Department of Defense to investigate the college.
For-profit colleges in general have been criticized for preying on veterans and low-income students, promising bright job prospects. But they continue to post high student loan default rates and below-average graduation rates…
Schools are not allowed to receive more than 90% of revenue from federal aid. But funds from the Department of Defense and the Department of Veterans Affairs don't count toward that limit. That gives for-profit schools an incentive to target veterans in order to stay below the threshold. https://archive.ph/wip/k3fub - https://money.cnn.com/2015/10/09/pf/college/university-of-phoenix-veterans/index.html
Romney Offers Praise for a Donor’s Business https://archive.ph/aeW2l January 14, 2012 WASHINGTON — At a town-hall-style meeting in New Hampshire last month, listeners pressed Mitt Romney on the soaring cost of higher education. His solution: students should consider for-profit colleges like the little-known Full Sail University in Florida. Mr. Romney did not mention the cost of tuition at Full Sail, which runs more than $80,000, for example, for a 21-month program in “video game art.”
Mr. Romney has received financial support from other segments of the for-profit college industry as well, and he was quick to praise the industry as an affordable alternative to traditional colleges…. He said schools like Full Sail and the University of Phoenix, a much larger and better-known nationwide system, offer students an alternative. Mr. Romney also just brought on Charlie Black, a prominent Washington lobbyist who has worked for for-profit colleges, as an informal campaign adviser.

Romney and Rubio Attack Trump University, But Both Are Tied to Predatory Colleges Mar 3, 2016 Both Romney and Rubio are tied to for-profit colleges that fleeced not just many U.S. students, leaving them with substandard educations and overwhelming debt, but also ripped off U.S. taxpayers, who foot the bill for student Pell grants and defaulted student loans. …
As the 2012 GOP nomination contest neared the critical Iowa caucuses, Romney was asked…what he planned to do about higher education. Romney's response was crystal-clear: He liked for-profit colleges, including the University of Phoenix , and especially a Florida school called Full Sail University, which, he said, knew how to "hold down the cost of their education."
… The facts are these: Mitt Romney's son Tagg and 2012 campaign finance director Spencer Zwick had launched the private equity fund Solamere Capital in 2008 with a $10 million investment from Mitt Romney. In June 2012, the Romney campaign held a retreat in Park City, Utah, for about 200 wealthy donors. Remarkably, right outside the retreat, Solamere Capital held its own investor lunch meeting.
In March 2013, following his defeat in the presidential election, Romney took on a more formal role at Solamere, becoming chairman of the executive committee. https://archive.ph/XB7H5
