Accreditation...what it means

AACSB International–The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business

Business schools with AACSB accreditation have met or exceeded the highest standards for business schools worldwide. We are proud to be part of an elite group to have earned AACSB accreditation for both our master’s and bachelor’s programs, and one of only 168 institutions with AACSB accreditation for its accounting program.

Why choose an AACSB accredited school?

The Accounting Program at the University of Houston-Clear Lake has a separate accounting accreditation from AACSB International. Only 168 universities from around the world have both accounting and business accreditation. AACSB International accreditation represents the highest standard of achievement for business schools, worldwide.
