CSU Global is proud to be institutionally accredited by the Higher Learning Commission (HLC). Accreditation is awarded to an institution of higher learning by an independent, external group of peer reviewers who confirm that the college or university in question keeps the promises it makes to students with integrity, transparency, and clarity.
Effective May 16, 2016, the Institutional Actions Council of the Higher Learning Commission continued the accreditation of Colorado State University Global with the next Reaffirmation of Accreditation in 2025-26. This action was the result of an extensive 18-month self-study, review, and site visit completed within the 2015-2016 academic year. In line with the HLC Standard Pathway 10-Year Review Cycle, in 2020, CSU Global underwent the Year 4 Comprehensive Evaluation and successfully completed a Focused Report and Visit in 2023.
