NSU's Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree program is approved by the Southern Association of College and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) as part of the scope of the university’s accreditation.
Nova Southeastern University was visited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) in April 2017 as part of the review process for accreditation (an off-site visit occurred in November 2016). At its annual meeting in December 2017, SACSCOC reaffirmed NSU’s regional accreditation for a 10-year period and approved the addition of a M.D. program as a substantive change.
