The goal of accreditation is to ensure and continually enhance the quality, integrity, and effectiveness of an institution’s academic programs, student services, and operations through a collaborative process of peer review. Accreditation fosters a culture of continuous improvement by engaging faculty, staff, students, and external reviewers in evaluating how well the institution fulfills its mission, meets established standards, and supports student learning and success. It also promotes shared accountability and transparency, building trust with students, families, employers, and the broader community.
The University of La Verne (ULV) is accredited by Western Association of Schools and Colleges – Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC) and initially accredited in 1955. The most recent WSCUC Commission action was February 2024 and May 2025, which requires ULV to submit an Interim Report to the WSCUC Commission in November 1, 2025. The next Offsite Review will be in Fall 2027 with an Accreditation Visit in Spring 2028.
