The School of Accounting holds an additional accreditation from Association to Advance
Collegiate Schools (AACSB) separate from the college itself, as it is accredited through
a parallel process with a higher standard for dually-accredited accounting programs.
The School of Accounting was among the very first accounting schools to receive separate
accreditation from AACSB.

Rawls College is also under university-wide accreditation with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC),
one of six regional accrediting agencies recognized by the Department of Education.
