Staff Report to the Senior Department Official on Recognition Compliance Issues. Recommendation Page: Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities
US Department of Education
The Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU) currently accredits approximately 160 degree-granting institutions located in the Northwest region, which consists of the states of Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Washington. The agency's recognition enables the institutions it accredits to seek eligibility to participate in the Department's student financial aid programs. This paper presents the recommendations of the staff of the National Advisory Committee on Institutional Quality and Integrity (NACIQI) concerning NWCCU's petition for continued recognition.
