Ensign College is accredited by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU). Accreditation of an institution of higher education by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities indicates that it meets or exceeds the criteria for evaluating institutional quality through a peer-review process. An accredited college or university is one that has available the necessary resources to achieve its stated purposes through appropriate educational programs, is substantially doing so, and gives reasonable evidence that it will continue to do so in the foreseeable future. Institutional integrity is also addressed through accreditation.

Accreditation by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities is not partial but applies to the institution as a whole. As such, it does not guarantee the competence of individual graduates or every course or program offered. Instead, it provides reasonable assurance about the quality of opportunities available to the institution's students.

Inquiries regarding an institution’s accredited status by the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities are directed to contact the institution's administrative staff.
