flexibility and can thrive with a high degree of independence. Working closely

Accreditation
Western Governors University is the only university to have received
simultaneous accreditation by four regional accrediting commissions. Currently,
WGU's "home" accrediting commission is the Northwest Commission on Colleges and
Universities, the same organization that accredits such leading institutions as
the University of Washington, University of Oregon, University of Utah, BYU,
and other public and private colleges. WGU is also nationally accredited by the
Distance Education and Training Council (DETC).
