What Classifies a University?

Programs

A university provides undergraduate studies leading to a baccalaureate (bachelor’s) degree in a broad range of academic disciplines, as well as graduate studies leading to advanced degrees in at least three academic and/or professional fields.

Organization

A university offers graduate studies and its associated programs distinct from undergraduate studies and the organization itself. A university also has staff whose primary responsibility is the administration of graduate and professional programs.

Resources

A university financially supports its graduate and professional programs and offers the facilities and equipment necessary to reflect the level of work required in both.

Accreditation

A university must be accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education. Additionally, in New Jersey, it must be licensed by the secretary of Higher Education, incorporated and located within the state.
