Accreditation

BJU is a member of the Transnational Association of Christian Colleges and Schools (TRACS) , having been awarded Accredited status as a Category IV institution by the TRACS Accreditation Commission on November 7, 2006; this status is effective for a period of 5 years.

TRACS is a national accreditation body offering institutional accreditation to Christian colleges, universities and seminaries. It is recognized by both the U.S. Department of Education (USDE) and the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA) and is a member of the International Network for Quality Assurance Agencies in Higher Education (INQAAHE).

TRACS grants accreditation solely to Christian colleges and universities. Accreditation under TRACS will enable graduates to realize the benefits of accreditation without compromise to the University's Bible-based philosophy and practices.

BJU attained accreditation candidacy status in April 2005. Since then it has undertaken a thorough self-study of its academic programs and business operations, documenting hundreds of pages of programs and processes to show that the University meets accreditation standards.
