Accreditation is a system for setting national standards of
quality in education. The United States is unique in the world because its
accreditation system is not administered by the government, but rather by
committees of educators and private agencies like the Middle States Association
of Colleges and Secondary Schools and the Society of Engineers. Before
registering to study in any educational institution in the United States a
student should make certain that the institution is accredited in order to
assure that the school has a recognized standard of organization, instruction,
and financial support. Foreign students should be particularly careful to check
an institution’s accreditation because other governments or future employers may
not recognize a degree earned from a school that has not received accreditation.
If a college is accredited, catalogues and brochures will usually indicate the
accreditation status. If you are not sure about a certain school, don’t hesitate
