Is it illegal for a company or organization to call themselves a University?

If in fact they are not a University and are not accredited?

I am researching a company that is the “Training Company” for a MLM corporation. This particular training company calls itself a university, but there is noaccreditationn for it, and it is not listed for the Council of Higher Education.

Can someone please tell me if this is illegal or not? They are operating in the State of Illinois, and some persons are listing this as their “education” on their resumes.

Thank you.
