Is the University of Phoenix an accredited online school?

University of Phoenix is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. As of 2015, the school is on notice, which means it has received a sanction indicating it may be out of compliance if it continues on a certain course of action.

An institution that is put on notice is still accredited by the Higher Learning Commission. The board of trustees may remove the sanction at the end of the notice period. Alternatively, it may put the institution on probation or take other actions. Information about the status of the University of Phoenix's accreditation and the accreditation process can be found on the website of the Higher Learning Commission.
