UNLV earned a rare distinction from the the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU) following its recent Year Seven Evaluation of Institutional Effectiveness. During a three day campus visit, the NWCCU peer review team met with more than 20 groups to assess UNLV's alignment with accreditation standards. The NWCCU team put forward four commendations and no recommendations. This marks the second consecutive accreditation cycle in which UNLV received no recommendations, reflecting more than a decade of coordinated, sustained work across the campus community.
