Clarity required

Hi, thanks for putting your points on my article. May you pls share more information on what more type of secondary sources are required?

For a university, official reference to affiliations, Association have been furnished.

A little more insights from your side will help me to improve article relevance. Obviously, seeing delete is disheartening. Hitesh Kakkar (talk) 10:50, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

Hiteshkakkar0912, I left a response on the AfD page as part of the record of that discussion. As I concluded there, it may be that there are no published sources on Apex that meet Wikipedia's notability requirements for private universities, yet. Perhaps a few years down the road, there will be some appropriate sources. Best wishes to you as you contribute here. Grand'mere Eugene (talk) 19:14, 14 April 2021 (UTC)

For-profit and private

"for profit" in the context of schools does not mean private. The vast majority of schools in the US that are private are operated by non-profits. Probably the majority are operated by religious groups and organizations, and those are all non-profit. Even a large portion of private schools that are non-religious are operated by non-profit organizations. Actually in the US secondary school market almost all of the for profit institutions are operating charter schools with government authorization. The tertiary school market is different, and there are lots of for profit schools, many of which may not really be notable. In some other countries there are large numbers of for profit secondary schools. There are in the US also some for profit institutions that run highly specialized things called schools, that teach music, dance, karate, etc. for profit. These will only very rarely be notable if they are aimed at children. For profit does not mean private.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:21, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
