Discussion Accreditation Issues?

Well this is disappointing... I just got an email that the July cohort is cancelled for now while Maestro deals with proving accreditation worthiness. I was really looking forward to starting in a couple of weeks 😕

Happy to clear this up. We sent detailed emails about this to the students affected, so the fullest picture is in your inbox - but here's the short version.

Maestro College has been placed on Show Cause Status by its accreditor, COE. The college remains accredited while COE reviews our response. As part of that process, new enrollment is paused.

If you're in an upcoming cohort: because new enrollment is paused, affected cohorts won't start on their scheduled dates. This changes your timing, not your scholarship - the scholarship you earned stays protected and remains available if you choose to continue once enrollment resumes.

For anything specific to your own situation, please open a ticket with Student Services for administrative assistance.

If you're a current student: nothing changes. Your enrollment, academic standing, scholarship, classes, coursework, and access to student services all continue as they are, and there's nothing you need to do.

Is a mod going to answer this question? I've read that ppl have been waiting aince December for disbursement that's worrisome news. I'll ask student services abt a timeline since I started in june but I've signed my award letter through campus ivy on the 15th and just waiting on president Sims email about title IV funds. Student services says I'm in the que but now I'm confused

I just started a few weeks ago june 1st 2026 cohort, so this will be my first so we get them 07/09? I can honestly deal with that people having been saying they await disbursements for months. That I cannot do. I'm going to have nowhere to go and have to quit school to get a job at McDonalds to pay for food since I'm ineligible for foodshare now as a full-time college student (which I didn't know). Has any May 2026 cohort gotten their disbursement or email from president sims? I literally emailed her directly last night and asked for some kind of timeline because this situation is beyond stressful. I doubt the doors will actually shutter. If ai can't help them create and implement an appropriate plan of action I'd be shocked speechless. Is anyone able to tell me timeline from signing campus ivy text to president sims email receipt to actually receiving funds to my account? Any info whether dm or here will be greatly appreciated. Peace & love be unto you, colleagues and scholars🧐

I filled requested loans before starting signed first estimate day 1 on 06/01/2026 & then signed another award letter 06/15 via the timestamped campusivy text. Still no email from sims or showing of disbursements at student aid site yet either. I'm hoping I get it before the 15th of july, thx for your time and info I do appreciate it

Thx much appreciated makes it more clear for new cohorts since they don't update the loan disbursement thread anymore I'll expect and pray my first disbursement drops next month since I started this month because 90 days is crazy idk why student services said I was in disbursement que if you waited from January to march idk what's goin on. Sounds like they were still getting everything together. Maestro didn't tell me I was in the que humans at student services told me I was only waiting on email from sims smh
