Accreditation
The University of North Carolina Wilmington (UNCW) is regionally accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS). Regional accreditation ensures that an institution's academic programs meet acceptable levels of quality. Institutions must be accredited by a federally recognized accrediting agency to qualify for participation in federal financial aid programs.
Programmatic accreditation, also known as specialized or professional accreditation, is designed for specialized departments, programs, schools, or colleges within a university or institution that has already received accreditation. The Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Management Education (CAHME) is considered a programmatic accreditation. The Master of Healthcare Administration (MHA) degree program, part of the College of Health and Human Services - School of Health and Applied Human Sciences, is accredited by CAHME. Learn more here.
