The high school was first accredited in 1948 with both the State of Oregon and the Northwest Association of Secondary and Higher Schools. The college faculty worked on accreditation issues for several years until in 1960 the Board of Control resolved that the institution go forward with the accreditation process. The college was first accredited with NASHS in December of 1962. Later the accreditation came from the Northwest Association.
