How to check accreditation of a foreign university

What will happen to my career goals if the university I am applying is turned out a fake later? A common question every career conscious applicant asks to self. Fakes are everywhere; fake people, fake currency, or a fake institute is nothing new term. If you are going to apply for an institution like Harvard you can do away with this exercise. Also your knowledge about education system comes into play when deciding upon a fake or real institution. What if a wrong doer is running an institute with a catchy and popular name which is a fake? Wrong doers are found in every segment of the society, self care holds utmost importance in doing a task; same is true with college admission.
