Accreditation assures you that a school meets the level of quality you expect from an institution of higher education. If the accrediting organization is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education, it will also ensure that a college meets the regulatory requirements allowing students to participate in federal financial aid programs.
Accreditation also lets others know the school you attended met quality standards. For example, if you choose to transfer to another school, your new school will be more likely to accept your credits if your previous institutions were accredited. Your future employers may also ask if your educational institutions were accredited when evaluating your resumé. You may be required to provide the status of your college’s accreditation before receiving payment for tuition and fees if your employer provides tuition reimbursement.
