Accreditation of Colleges in the U.
S.
Students studying in the U.
S.
can be reassured of the quality of education they receive through a process
called, ‘accreditation’.
Accreditation is one of the most important factors to consider while deciding on
which college to attend, be it online or on-ground.
Here is a look at the accreditation process in the U.
S.
and its importance.
Understanding accreditation
Colleges in the U.
S.
voluntarily seek out accreditation from non-governmental, third party organizations.
Accreditation is an independent review process carried out by these organizations of the programs and
the amenities (faculty, curriculum, administration, financial aid assistance, student services) offered
by a college.
The process helps to determine that the education provided by the college is of uniform
and sound quality.
A college maintains its accreditation by adhering to criteria set by these accrediting
organizations.
