WASC Senior College and University Commission

The WASC Senior College and University Commission is an organization that evaluates and accredits higher education institutions in parts of the western United States and beyond. Its goal is to ensure colleges and universities meet quality standards in areas like academic programs, faculty, student services, and governance. Accreditation by WASC confirms that an institution provides a credible and sound education, helping students, employers, and other stakeholders trust the institution's degrees and credentials. Essentially, WASC acts as a quality assurance body that maintains high educational standards across higher education institutions in its region.
