What is Accreditation?
Accreditation is the process for evaluating and assuring the quality of education used by the American higher education community. It is a uniquely American quality assurance process through which institutions collectively set standards for good practice, conduct peer-based evaluations of institutions, on a regular basis, confer accredited status on institutions, and make the results of accreditation review of institutions known to the public. Through accreditation, the higher education community shoulders the responsibility for monitoring the quality of the programs and services or member institutions. Agencies that develop and apply standards are called accrediting commissions. Accrediting commissions were created by a collective group that wished to engage in the quality review and assurance process, and those institutions were and are referred to as the member institutions of a commission.
Institutional Accreditation is public certification that institutions meet defined standards of quality and responsibility.

The Yuba Community College District was founded in 1927. Yuba College opened on its current site, 2088 North Beale Road in Marysville, in September 1962. The campus currently includes 23 buildings and sits on 160 acres.
In addition to the main campus, Yuba College operates an educational center at the Sutter County Center located in Yuba City. The Sutter County Center opened in the fall of 2012 and is the college’s newest center, just off Highway 99.

The college provides services to allow eligible 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th-grade students to enroll in college courses; these efforts assist students to plan and complete their college degrees through quality dual or concurrent enrollment, with less cost while working toward a two-year or four-year college educational goal.
