What is the value of attending a school that is accredited or that has candidacy status?
Nearly all U.S. states that license acupuncturists require graduation from a program that is accredited or that has candidacy status (some also recognize certain foreign programs or state-approved programs that are not accredited). Schools are required to meet certain standards and undergo rigorous process of self-study and examination regularly to maintain accreditation. A school that is accredited also means it can offer students financial aid from the federal government.
