Reaffirmation of Accreditation 2024

Foothill College is scheduled to have a peer review team site visit during the week of September 30, 2024. The peer review team will base their formative and summative evaluations from the college's Institutional Self-Evaluation Report (ISER) that was submitted to the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges (ACCJC) in December 2023.
