Crosswalk between TRACS and SACSCOC

Because the United States Department of Education holds all accrediting agencies to the same standards, as of July 1, 2020, it no longer has a distinction between regional and national accrediting agencies- both regional and national agencies are now known as institutional accrediting agencies.
