The University of Phoenix has been regionally accredited since 1978 by The Higher Learning Commission (HLC) and was a member of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (NCA). In February 2013, a peer review group recommended to the HLC that the university be put on probation because the University of Phoenix ''has insufficient autonomy relative to its parent corporation.'' On May 9, 2013, the Apollo Group filed a report with the Securities and Exchange Commission which stated that the HLC Institutional Actions Council First Committee (''IACFC'') had recommended to the HLC that the university retain its regional accreditation, but that the university be placed on ''notice'' for two years. Their concerns center on the university's governance, student assessment, and faculty scholarship in relation to PhD programs. In July 2015, the Higher Learning Commission removed University of Phoenix from Notice Status.
