Shoreline Community College is accredited by:
Northwest Commission
on Colleges and
Universities
8060 165th Avenue North East,

Redmond, WA 98052
Specific programs are accredited by the National League for
Nursing Accrediting Commission, the American Dental Association,
the American Dietetic Association, Commission on Accreditation
of Health Informatics and Information Management Education and
the National Accrediting Agency for Clinical Laboratory

Shoreline Community College has been
continuously accredited by the
Northwest
Commission on Colleges and Universities
(NWCCU) since its initial accreditation in
the 1960s. The College was founded in 1964
as part of the Shoreline School District and
moved to its present site in 1966 when all
community colleges in Washington State were
transferred to a common State Board of
Community and Technical Colleges.
SCC's accreditation was most recently
reaffirmed following a
Five-Year Interim
Visit in October 2007 which followed a
Full-Scale Accreditation Visit in October
2002.
NWCCU is currently revising its
accreditation standards and process, and
Shoreline CC is serving as one of the Phase
II colleges whose Year One Report based on
these new standards is due Fall 2011
followed by a full scale visit on all five
new standards in Fall 2012.
Recently we completed a progress report
to Recommendation One as originally cited in
the 2002 full scale visit and 2007
interim visit. SCC is currently
drafting its Year one Report and working
diligently on its self-study for the full
scale report due in 2012. Relevant
accreditation documents required by the
SBCTC and the NWCCU can be accessed below:
