Accreditation of an institution by the New England Association indicates that it meets or exceeds
criteria for the assessment of institutional quality periodically applied through a peer group review process.
An accredited school or college is one which has available the necessary resources to achieve its stated
purposes through appropriate education programs, is substantially doing so, and gives reasonable evidence
that it will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Institutional integrity is also addressed through
accreditation.
Accreditation by the New England Association is not partial but applies to the institution as a
whole. As such, it is not a guarantee of the quality of every course or program offered, or the competence
of individual graduates. Rather, it provides reasonable assurance about the quality of opportunities
available to students who attend the institution.
Inquiries regarding the status of an institution’s accreditation by the New England Association
should be directed to the administrative staff of the school or college. Individuals may also contact the
association.
