Accreditation

In July 2006, Nevada State College was granted accreditation "candidacy" status by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities. As a result, NSC is able to award and disburse financial aid independently, while other institutions can accept NSC coursework without a sponsorship letter from the University of Nevada, Reno. NSC will continue its accreditation efforts under the sponsorship of UNR, which provides oversight for NSC's programs and services.
