CGA Earns WASC Accreditation

We are extremely pleased and proud to announce that **Crimson Global Academy has been granted accreditation by the Accrediting Commission for Schools, **Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC). This accreditation status extends through June 2030 and is a monumental achievement for our school, marking our commitment to providing educational excellence and continuous improvement to our student community worldwide.

The Importance of WASC Accreditation

WASC accreditation is a globally recognized benchmark that signifies a school's commitment to a mission that promotes student learning and achievement. We underwent a rigorous review of all aspects of our school operations, leading to the achievement of a six-year accreditation status, the longest period bestowed by WASC. This accomplishment is a huge endorsement of our program's focus on learning and meeting the global needs of our students.

The success of this accreditation process owes much to the leadership and dedication of our team, particularly Brittanie Bates, CGA’s US Diploma Pathway Principal who spearheaded this initiative. Through her guidance, we demonstrate our commitment to student achievement, learning outcomes, and continuous improvement, embodying the essence of what it means to be a WASC-accredited institution. This accreditation validates the integrity of CGA's educational programs and transcripts, facilitating the seamless transfer of credits and bolstering college and university acceptance globally.
