What happens if a student attends a non-accredited schools and transfers to an accredited school within or outside the WASC region?
At the elementary and middle school levels, the transfer of records and credits from a non-accredited school to an accredited school is usually not a problem; however, most accredited schools at the secondary level have policies to accept credits only from regionally accredited schools. If a student comes from another part of the country or world, WASC has reciprocal agreements with the five other regional associations. WASC also recognizes some of the other national and international accrediting associations. Please contact the WASC Office for further details.
