Accreditation

The UNL Independent Study High School maintains accreditation from the North Central Association Commission on Accreditation and School Improvement (NCACASI), the Nebraska Department of Education and the Commission on International and Trans-Regional Accreditation (CITA).

Why is accreditation important?

Accreditation ensures that quality standards are met in courses and administrative policies.

Increased performance.
Accreditation focuses on school improvement and enhanced learning for all students.

Transfer of credits.
In addition to raising student achievement, accreditation eases the transition of students as they move from one accredited school to another.

Access to programs and scholarships.
Accreditation can also benefit students as they apply for federal grants and scholarships or pursue admission to colleges, technical schools, or military programs that require students to come from regionally accredited schools.
