Tri-Valley University (TVU) was an unaccredited university located in Pleasanton, California, United States. According to its website, the school "is a Christian higher education institution offering quality academic programs in Engineering, Business, Ministry, Law and Medicine at a Christian learning environment". Most of the classes for the school were offered online. The school was shut down after being raided by Immigration and Customs Enforcement due to possible visa fraud. It is under investigation by the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) department for allegedly operating as a front for illegal immigration. The ICE claims the school issued F-1 visas to students who lived outside California. From May 2009 to May 2010, the school went from having 11 students with F1 visas to 939 students with F1 visas. The number went to 1555 in December 2010. 89 percent of the students were from India. Students paid up to $2,700 per semester for tuition. Furthermore, the Department of Homeland Security claims students who were enrolled were paid if they referred another student to the school. Susan Su, operator of the school specifically blamed two student workers, one of whom runs a consulting company, for operating the visa fraud scheme. The school was shut down after a raid by ICE on January 19, 2011. The US Attorney filed suit to forfeit five properties owned by Susan Su relating to the school. More information...
