Academics
Northland College is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Universities.
On August 1, 2012, the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association, established two requirements for the institution, resulting from its site visit in spring. One involves producing a monitoring report by December, outlining faculty credentials, to include official transcripts and appropriate certifications where applicable. The second requirement involves a focused visit during the 2014-2015 school year that will involve an assessment of student learning and institutional strategic planning, with a focus on student enrollment and college finances.

Famous quotes containing the word academics:
“Almost all scholarly research carries practical and political implications. Better that we should spell these out ourselves than leave that task to people with a vested interest in stressing only some of the implications and falsifying others. The idea that academics should remain above the fray only gives ideologues license to misuse our work.”
—Stephanie Coontz (b. 1944)
“Our first line of defense in raising children with values is modeling good behavior ourselves. This is critical. How will our kids learn tolerance for others if our hearts are filled with hate? Learn compassion if we are indifferent? Perceive academics as important if soccer practice is a higher priority than homework?”
—Fred G. Gosman (20th century)
