The name Concordia is in common use by hundreds of other colleges & universities, accredited and unaccredited entities around the world. Our institution however is not associated with any foreign ''unaccredited'' college or university using a similar name.
Our accreditor's website is hosted on the accreditation.pro web domain, restricted exclusively to agencies admitted through a U.S. State Government recognized body (view eligibility requirements). The National Academic Higher Education Agency is founded to foster and preserve high quality, educationally sound and widely accepted distance education standards and to provide a consistent measurement of the acceptability of private schools (K-12), adult high schools, vocational and technical schools, private colleges and postsecondary education.
All online schools are global and non-state-specific by nature. Concordia College & University is associated with the The Technology Center Institute, accredited by the State of Tennessee Real Estate Commission. Concordia College and University has also been accredited internationally, by Government Departments of Education in Asia and in Africa. Concordia College and University's national accreditation in the United States does not enable our enrollees to participate in Title IV programs. Title IV funding is the nearly 60 billion dollar congressionally approved annual money stream that flows from taxpayers to mainly state universities and community colleges, we are not one of them.

''This is a significant day for the university as we receive accreditation from a U.S. national agency,'' said Concordia College's founding director. ''This affirmation of our strong commitment to providing our students with a rigorous and well rounded educational assessment program is another step in our growth as a university. I am grateful to our faculty, staff and administration for their diligence exhibited throughout the accreditation process.''
The United States is the only known country in the world that has no Federal Ministry of Education and no centralized authority exercising national control over postsecondary educational institutions. In other words : it is a common misconception to believe that the U.S. Department of Education accredits universities or university degrees, it doesn't. Click to learn more about the ins and outs of accreditation in the United States.
Accreditation means that an independent group of college and university administrators in the United States has certified that the college's curriculum, degree-by-assessment programs and faculty conform to standards within the field of higher education. Essentially, it means Concordia College and University is not a ''diploma mill'' and degrees actually have proven their academic and professional value in today's highly competitive job marketplace.
Concordia College & University is continuously examining both private and governmental accrediting agencies and organizations worldwide, that are complementary to its goals and objectives.

Concordia College and University graduates are eligible to apply for a U.S. Educational Equivalency Certificate which recognizes your degree as the equivalent to any other regionally or nationally accredited college or university in the United States.

Concordia College & University is rated a top-10 online university in the authoritative Online Education Factbook. Some states may however require that you graduate from a local brick-and-mortar state college for professional licensing purposes, they may refuse to recognize out-of-state distance learning degrees. Inquire with your local authorities before committing to any distance education establishment.
Keep in mind that accreditation does not provide ''automatic acceptance'' by an institution of credit earned at another institution, nor does it give assurance of acceptance of graduates by employers. Acceptance of students or graduates is always the prerogative of the receiving institution or employer. Learn more about how to get admitted to a traditional brick-and-mortar university.
