UNA's most recent Compliance Certification Report was presented to the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) in September 2022. The Off-Site Committee requested additional information for several of the SACSCOC principles. UNA provided this supplemental information through a Focused Report that was reviewed by a SACSCOC Onsite Review Committee in March 2023. The SACSCOC Onsite Review Committee deemed the University to be in compliance with all of the principles and did not issue any recommendations. In December 2023, SACSCOC reaffirmed the University's accreditation. UNA will seek reaffirmation again in 2033.
