The Cardinal Newman Society

The College of St. Joseph the Worker has received Provisional Recognition in The Newman Guide. In order to receive full recognition in The Newman Guide, a college must have been in operation for four or more years and graduated a first class. Provisional recognition is granted to a college that does not yet meet the requirements for full recognition but based on information provided in the Newman Guide application, the Cardinal Newman Society believes the college’s standards and policies appear to meet Newman Guide criteria. The Society will conduct another evaluation of a provisionally recognized college before granting full recognition.

Accreditation

Accreditation of a new college is a multi-year process that requires a school to operate in order to earn accreditation. The College of St. Joseph the Worker is not currently accredited by any accrediting agency, but we are striving for accreditation.
