SACSCOC Global Impact

The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) accredits institutions of higher education primarily located in 11 states in the southern region of the United States. Additionally, it accredits seven international institutions.  Since many of our member institutions also operate in states and countries outside of those areas, we have posted a list of jurisdictions in which SACSCOC conducts accreditation activities. This list includes any main campus, a branch campus, or other instructional site operated by an institution.
