Accreditation

NEOMED is fully accredited by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC). The HLC is one of the six regional agencies that accredit U.S. colleges and universities at the institutional level.

The university’s last site visit by a Commission team was in September 2022, resulting in a full 10-year reaccreditation, the most that can be earned.
