About

The University of Hawai‘i–West O‘ahu is accredited by WASC Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC). The University was granted initial accreditation in February 1981 by what was then known as WASC, and has been reaccredited in all subsequent reviews, including most recently in July 2022 . The WSCUC accreditation process aids institutions in developing and sustaining effective educational programs and assures the educational community, the general public, and other organizations that an accredited institution has met high standards of quality and effectiveness.
