St. Mary’s College of Maryland (SMCM) is an accredited institution and a member of the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE or the Commission), www.msche.org. SMCM’s accreditation status is Accreditation Reaffirmed.
The Commission’s most recent action on the institution’s accreditation status on June 22, 2017 was to reaffirm accreditation. MSCHE is recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education to conduct accreditation and pre-accreditation (candidate status) activities for institutions of higher education including distance, correspondence education, and direct assessment programs offered at those institutions. The Commission’s geographic area of accrediting activities is throughout the United States.
SMCM’s next self-study is in 2024-25. Read about our progress here.
