Hello! I've been considering Lone Star College as an option for my college journey. Before I make any decisions, does anyone know if they're accredited and who their accrediting body is? Thanks!
Lone Star College is indeed an accredited institution. They are accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC). This regional accrediting agency is recognized by the U.S. Department of Education and grants accreditation to associate, baccalaureate, master’s, and doctoral degree-granting institutions in the Southern United States. By attending an accredited institution like Lone Star College, you can be assured that the education you receive meets a certain level of quality, and your credits will generally be more easily transferable to other accredited institutions if you decide to pursue further education.
