Accreditation Information
Accreditation is a process for voluntary, non-governmental review of educational institutions and programs. When choosing a business school, it is very important to consider its accreditation. Accreditation may affect your desirability in graduate programs, ability to transfer credits, the reputation of your degree, and your ability to compete in the job market.
The College of Business at Florida Atlantic University is accredited by The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business International (AACSB). As the AACSB is the Gold Standard in Business School accreditation, the College of Business is only 1 of 149 institutions worldwide accredited through the doctoral level. In addition to AACSB accreditation, we are also in full compliance with the guidelines for regional accreditation under the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS).
