Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience, observance of trends in the industry, information provided by outside sources and on various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant estimates include allowance for uncollectible student receivables, accrued expenses, valuation of goodwill and the provision for income taxes.falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaDisclosure of accounting policy for the use of estimates in the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 275 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 9 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6927468&loc=d3e6143-108592 Reference 2: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 275 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 8 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6927468&loc=d3e6132-108592 Reference 3: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 275 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 4 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6927468&loc=d3e6061-108592 false0Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]4false 2us-gaap_RevenueRecognitionPolicyTextBlockus-gaap_truenadurationfalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalseterseLabel1falsefalsefalse00Revenue Recognition The academic year of Broadview University is divided into four quarters, which approximately coincide with the four quarters of the calendar year. Students make payment arrangements for their tuition and related charges prior to the beginning of each quarter. The University bills students during the second week of each quarter for that quarter’s tuition and related charges; billings for tuition and lab fees are recorded as deferred revenue and are recognized over the course of the quarter. Other revenue sources include textbook commissions, application fees, merchandise sales and other miscellaneous income; the University recognizes revenue for these items when earned. If a student withdraws from a course prior to completion, the University refunds a portion of the tuition. The refunded amount is dependent on the timing of the withdrawal. Tuition revenue is shown net of any refunds. Because the University bills its students quarterly for tuition and other academic services, and 100% of these services are generally completed by each quarter end, the University has no deferred revenue at the end of each quarter.falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaDisclosure of accounting policy for revenue recognition. If the entity has different policies for different types of revenue transactions, the policy for each material type of transaction is generally disclosed. If a sales transaction has multiple element arrangements (for example, delivery of multiple products, services or the rights to use assets) the disclosure may indicate the accounting policy for each unit of accounting as well as how units of accounting are determined and valued. The disclosure may encompass important judgment as to appropriateness of principles related to recognition of revenue. The disclosure also may indicate the entity's treatment of any unearned or deferred revenue that arises from the transaction.Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 235 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 3 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6367646&loc=d3e18780-107790 Reference 2: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 235 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 1 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6367646&loc=d3e18726-107790 Reference 3: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher SEC -Name Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) -Number Topic 13 -Section B -Paragraph Question 1 Reference 4: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 605 -SubTopic 10 -Section S99 -Paragraph 1 -Subparagraph (SAB TOPIC 13.B.Q1) -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=27012821&loc=d3e214044-122780 Reference 5: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 235 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 4 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6367646&loc=d3e18823-107790 false0Revenue Recognition, Policy [Policy Text Block]5false 2us-gaap_CashAndCashEquivalentsPolicyTextBlockus-gaap_truenadurationfalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalseterseLabel1falsefalsefalse00Cash United States Department of Education (“USDE”) regulations require Title IV program funds received by the University in excess of the tuition and fees owed by the relevant students at that time to be, with these students’ permission, maintained and classified as restricted until the students are billed for the portion of their education program related to those funds. Funds transferred through electronic funds transfer programs are held in a separate bank account and released when certain conditions are satisfied.

At times throughout the year, the Company’s cash balances may exceed amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company has not experienced any losses on its cash. The University grants credit to students in the normal course of business, but generally does not require collateral or any other security to support amounts due. Generally, a student is prohibited from registering for a subsequent academic quarter if he or she has not made definitive arrangements to pay for outstanding balances. Based upon past experience and management’s judgment, the Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts with respect to student receivables at the end of each quarter. Management evaluates a number of factors, including the students’ status (i.e. active, withdrawn, etc.), the period of time a balance has been outstanding, and financial aid options that are available to students that may be applied against a balance. Generally, uncollected amounts for students who have withdrawn or are otherwise no longer in school are written off after being outstanding for more than 90 days. The Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts was $20,000 and $25,000 at March 31, 2013 and 2012.falsefalsefalsenonnum:textBlockItemTypenaDisclosure of accounting policy for credit risk.Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 944 -SubTopic 825 -Section 50 -Paragraph 1 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=28088331&loc=SL29635902-196195 Reference 2: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 825 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 20 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=28364263&loc=d3e13531-108611 Reference 3: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 825 -SubTopic 10 -Section 50 -Paragraph 21 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=28364263&loc=d3e13537-108611 Reference 4: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 825 -SubTopic 10 -Section 55 -Paragraph 1 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6875567&loc=d3e14489-108613 Reference 5: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 942 -SubTopic 825 -Section 50 -Paragraph 2 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6480020&loc=d3e61082-112788 Reference 6: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher FASB -Name Accounting Standards Codification -Topic 942 -SubTopic 825 -Section 50 -Paragraph 1 -URI http://asc.fasb.org/extlink&oid=6480020&loc=d3e61044-112788 false0Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]7false 2us-gaap_PropertyPlantAndEquipmentPolicyTextBlockus-gaap_truenadurationfalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalsefalseterseLabel1falsefalsefalse00Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation.
