NCA Overview
NCA Accreditation is a process whereby a higher education institution engages in comprehensive self-study. The self-study process involves applying quality indicators developed specifically for higher education institutions to help them evaluate their strengths and challenges.
St. Clair County Community College (SC4) is proud of its long and rich history with NCA Accreditation dating back to 1923.
Accreditation History
Port Huron Junior College received its first accreditation in 1923 when the Chairman of the Junior College Committee of the University of Michigan visited the College and assured acceptance of credits by the University. The College received its first North Central Association (NCA) accreditation in 1930, and has held continuous accreditation since that time. In July, 1969, the Association transferred accreditation from Port Huron Junior College to St. Clair County Community College, following an evaluation team visit.
The College’s last comprehensive visit by the Association was in 1996, when a 10-year continuing accreditation was granted.
The next comprehensive visit is in April 2007.
