FIND OUT MORE Accreditation Accreditation Compliance (SACSCOC) The Houston Community College District is accredited as one body by the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACSCOC) to award the associate degree. SACSCOC is one of six nationally regional accreditation agencies recognized by the United States Department of Education. The Commission oversees accreditation of colleges in eleven southern states. Contact the Commission on Colleges at 1866 Southern Lane, Decatur, Georgia 30033-4097 or call 404-679-4500 for questions about the accreditation of the Houston Community College District. The Houston Community College District was first admitted into membership in SACS on December 19, 1977. Accreditation was granted provisionally and yearly for five years until a full Self-Study was completed and reaffirmation of accreditation was received for the ten years following December 17, 1982. HCC received its last reaffirmation of accreditation in June 2012. Fifth Year Interim Report HCC’s reaffirmation of accreditation was received from the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) in 2012. SACSCOC developed the Fifth Year Interim Report to respond to the U.S. Department of Education’s requirements (1) that accrediting bodies continuously monitor institutions to ensure compliance with SACSCOC standards and requirements and (2) that accrediting bodies have a mechanism for reviewing multiple sites initiated since last reaffirmation. HCC’s Fifth Year Interim Report was submitted to SACSCOC in September 2017. The Fifth Year Interim Report that was submitted in September 2017 was accepted by the SACSCOC Board of Trustees in June 2018. No further comments or reports were required.
