Accreditation
GateWay Community College is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission.
Accreditation is a review process used in higher education to scrutinize colleges, universities, and educational programs for quality assurance and quality improvement. GateWay Community College’s accreditation was last reaffirmed in 2020 with an update in 2022 expanding this accreditation to include the offering of a Bachelor of Applied Science degree in Nuclear Medicine Technology and Computed Tomography. Currently, GateWay is preparing for the October 2023 Higher Learning Commission assurance review. Such assurance reviews provide colleges fully accredited on the open pathway model an opportunity to demonstrate continued compliance with Higher Learning Commission's criteria at around the 4 year point of the standard 10 year accreditation period.
