HLC Reaffirmation of Accreditation
The ´óÏó´«Ã½'s institutional accreditor is the Higher Learning Commission (HLC).
The university has maintained continuous accreditation since March 28, 1973. ´óÏó´«Ã½'s most recent reaffirmation of accreditation was in August of 2015. The next reaffirmation (comprehensive) will occur during the 2024-2025 academic year.
Preparation is currently underway for this reaffirmation visit. Committees are collecting evidence in support of narratives that demonstrate how ´óÏó´«Ã½ meets and exceeds the five criteria for accreditation, assumed practices, and federal compliance requirements.
