ABOUT DEREE - ACCREDITATION

Since 1981, The American College of Greece has been accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges, the oldest and most prestigious of the eight regional accrediting associations in the United States.

The New England Association of Schools and Colleges Commission on Institutions of Higher Education  accredits  colleges and universities in the six New England states: Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island and Vermont; it also accredits several American international institutions.

The Commission consists of faculty and administrators from affiliated institutions and public members. It is served by a staff led by Dr. Barbara Brittingham.

The Commission is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education as a reliable authority on the quality of education for the institutions it accredits. The Commission’s recognition by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation affirms that its standards and processes are consistent with the quality, improvement and accountability expectations that CHEA has established.
