What does dual accreditation mean for my degree?
At USIU-Africa, dual accreditation means that the university’s academic programs are officially recognized by two separate accrediting bodies:
Kenya’s Commission for University Education (CUE) – which ensures the programs meet national higher education standards.
The WASC Senior College and University Commission (WSCUC) in the United States – which certifies that the programs meet rigorous American higher education standards.
This allows USIU-Africa degrees to be globally recognized, making it easier for graduates to pursue further studies or careers both locally and internationally.
