Best Answer

Accreditation is the process of ensuring that a college meets the minimum requirements for providing a quality education. If a college is not accredited, the diplomas it gives will be meaningless and not recognized by other schools or employers.

Is Patrick Henry College a good Law school?

I would look into this institution before making a decision. The college states it has the preferred regional accreditation. However, the College Board does not indicated that the school does have this accreditation. A regional accreditation is extremely important for you who plan to continue on the law school. With a regional accreditation, you can be assured the coursework and degree you complete will be recognized by all other colleges and universities as well as employers. Still, I can find no evidence (other than what the college states) that Patrick Henry has a regional accreditation.
