To receive accreditation, a school must have a statement of faith identifying it as "part of the evangelical protestant tradition in higher education." Of the schools it has accredited, the best-known are Liberty University (1984-2008) and Bob Jones University (2006–present) It is also known for accrediting Historically Black Colleges and Universities that have lost their regional accreditation because of financial issues.
