Northwest Association of Secondary and Higher Schools

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Northwest Association of Secondary and Higher Schools traces its history to 1917. In 1974 the association changed its name to the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges. In 2000 it became the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges and Universities, which disbanded and split into two separate organizations in 2004, with the Northwest Association of Accredited Schools handling the accreditation of schools and the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities handling the accreditation of institutions of higher education..[1]
