Statement on UH West O‘ahu WASC Accreditation status:

“We want to make clear to the public, especially the students, faculty and staff at UH West O‘ahu, that the campus is fully accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Senior Colleges and Universities of WASC. Campus and system representatives are scheduled to meet via video with WASC leadership in October to discuss the concerns raised by the visiting team. Issues of academic leadership and staffing will be addressed. The new UHWO campus is an integral part of the UH system and addressing the concerns of our accreditors is a top priority.”
