Reviewed: September 2026 - NECHE Preparation Review - No substantive change.
Quincy College is accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE), an institutional accreditor recognized by the United States Department of Education. NECHE accredits colleges and universities across the United States and internationally. NECHE is a voluntary, nongovernmental, peer-based membership organization that promotes educational quality, institutional effectiveness, and continuous improvement.
NECHE accreditation applies to the institution as a whole, including its programs, locations, and online offerings. Accreditation does not guarantee the quality of every individual program or course or the competence of individual graduates. Rather, institutional accreditation provides public assurance regarding the overall educational quality and institutional capacity of the College.
