Merge

Before removing a good faith merge proposal, please at least make a token effort to discuss it. Both schools are operated by the same company from the same location and neither article has information so substantial that it needs to stand on its own. Tomdobb (talk) 12:11, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The next time you request a merge, make sure you put down why you are requesting it on the talk page. The schools are totally different(1 is a high school, the other a vocational school), both have different accreditation status, and both articles have excellent info on each page for the respected school. I oppose a merge. MOOOOOPS (talk) 18:55, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I oppose the merge too. The preceding comment says it all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.104.122.199 (talk) 03:09, 3 November 2009 (UTC) I actually created this entry years ago. I would oppose deletion or merger. Penn Foster Career School is a school that has had literally millions of students over its 100+ year history. I have no connection to this school, other than having been a student once. This entry should stand on its own. If there's any merger, it should be merging the high school into this entry, but, really, the high school and career school, although owned/run by the same company, are separate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.180.41.253 (talk) 18:36, 8 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Founding date

This article gives the founding date of ICS as 1890; ICS-Learn gives it as 1889. Which is right? Susie Brooke (talk) 20:07, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The company itself thinks it is 1890. --StellarNerd (talk) 20:22, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
