China's education authority has issued a list of the country's 2,800 authorized institutions of higher learning.
The schools accredited by the Ministry of Education include private and Sino-foreign joint venture universities, while most Chinese institutions of higher learning are public.
The education ministry issues the list every year, partly in effort to alert the public of unauthorized "diploma mills" which are still seen in a lot of places despite repeated bans.
A commercial website issued a list of pseudo colleges, the third of its kind, naming a total of 210 diploma mills suspected of illegal enrollment and online swindling.
The new list issued by the Ministry of Education can be accessed via the website, moe.edu.cn.
