The following table lists all schools, colleges, and universities within 50
miles of
that offer a minimum of an Associate degree. Furthermore, the table is broken
down into two section separating 2 and 4-year schools.
The accreditation information provided is based on an annual survey conducted
by the Dept. of Education (2000). Special note: accreditations can change, you
should contact the school to verify if the school is still currently accredited
by the institution of interest. A lack of accreditations does not necessarily
mean that the school is not accredited, it simply means that that portion of the
school survey was not filled out. Responses to the survey are voluntary and
therefore may not accurately reflect the actual school's condition. Sources:

1998/1999) and (Accreditation data, IPEDS Survey 2000-2001).
