Institutional accreditation is…
- Important to the maintenance of the institution’s reputation
- Important to the transferability of earned UT credit hours to other institutions
- Essential for the acceptance of our students to graduate and professional schools elsewhere
- Necessary for access to federal student financial aid and to some federal grants
Programmatic accreditation is…
- a process that ensures an academic program meets rigorous educational quality standards
- a credential that applies to a single degree program or school housed in an accredited institution
