Accreditation

Gavilan College is accredited by the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges, Western Association of Schools and Colleges, 10 Commercial Blvd., Suite 204, Novato, CA 94949, (415) 506-0234, an institutional accrediting body recognized by the Council for Higher Education Accreditation and the U.S. Department of Education. Additional information about accreditation, including the filing of complaints against member institutions, can be found at: www.accjc.org.

Every seven years as part of the accreditation process, Gavilan College must undertake a comprehensive self study that culminates with a multi-day visit from a team of evaluators. This team evaluates the quality of the college and assesses the degree to which the college meets the accreditation standards. Gavilan College must also submit a midterm evaluation in the third year of the cycle, and submit annual reports. Gavilan College accreditation was reaffirmed in 2019.
