Since The Higher Learning Commission accredits entire institutions rather than individual programs within those institutions, we do not maintain a list of external programs offered.

A large number of accredited institutions offer one or more programs through distance delivery. Internet resources for information on distance education include:

Be sure to verify the current accreditation status of any institution that you select.

You should be aware that there is a proliferation of on-line institutions that are either unaccredited or are accredited by agencies that are not recognized by the U.S. Department of Education. To check on the legitimacy of any accrediting agency you may call the U.S.D.E. at (202) 219-7011 or check its website: www.ed.gov/admins/finaid/accred/index.html.
