- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result of the debate was Delete. Looking at both sides, I the arguments in favour of deletion outweigh the arguments in favour of keep. If this school is notable enough (and not just another small private school like many others that advertise on late night TV), I have no prejudice against the recreation of this article as long as it is no longer an ad.

- Keep, most schools and colleges are notable. Stifle (talk) 00:05, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
- I doubt that the present state reflects in a good way the OBI should be seen. It is in my opinion more like an ad as it stands now. Lincher 02:40, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
This AfD is being relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached. Please add new discussion below this notice. Thanks!

- Delete - as it stands, it is now an advertisement. It's not really a college - it doesn't offer proper degrees. - Richardcavell 09:26, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
- Weak keep. Not much information there other than that the place exists, and where to find more information. I suppose someone checking the initials would want to know that. --woggly 10:35, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
- Delete If we take out what is not verifiable except at their own web site, we are left with the title. Kevin 11:20, 9 May 2006 (UTC)
- Weak delete This page suggests that the institution does exist, but the article looks like an ad/redirect to their website. Not enough content in the article to warrant keeping. Paddles 16:07, 10 May 2006 (UTC)
