Cromwell, CT – Holy Apostles College & Seminary will undergo a comprehensive evaluation in Fall 2025 to renew its institutional accreditation by the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE), one of the oldest regional accrediting commissions in the United States.
As part of this process, an onsite peer review visit is scheduled for November 2-5, 2025, at the Holy Apostles College & Seminary campus in Cromwell, Connecticut. The institution has been accredited by NECHE since 1974, with the reaccreditation process occurring every ten years, along with a mid-term report submission. The college was last reaffirmed for accreditation in 2015.
A team of reviewers, experts in various higher education disciplines and representing institutions across New England and New York, will conduct an assessment based on the NECHE Standards for Accreditation. Members of the public are invited to submit comments or feedback regarding Holy Apostles College & Seminary’s compliance with these standards. For more information on how to submit feedback, please visit NECHE Accreditation Feedback Form.
The NECHE accreditation process allows Holy Apostles College & Seminary to demonstrate its commitment to continuous improvement and academic excellence, ensuring the institution meets the highest standards of educational effectiveness.
NECHE is a non-profit, non-governmental membership organization that fosters institutional self-regulation, voluntary adherence to accreditation standards, and a system of peer review. The Commission accredits a broad range of institutions with distinct missions, evaluating each according to its unique goals while maintaining a focus on institutional quality and effectiveness.
