United States federal guidelines require that distance learning and related activities offered to residents outside of an institution’s home state are regulated. To comply with these guidelines, St. Joseph’s University has joined the State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement (NC-SARA), which establishes a set of recognized standards and regulations for offering postsecondary online education. NC-SARA is administered by the four regional education compacts (Midwestern Higher Education Compact, New England Board of Higher Education, Southern Regional Education Board and the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education) and membership is open to all degree-granting postsecondary institutions accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Secretary of Education. For a current list of states, districts and territories that participate in NC-SARA, please visit the NC-SARA website.
Students who reside in states, districts and territories that are members of NC-SARA are encouraged to resolve any issues regarding their education or experiences at St. Joseph’s University by following the steps outlined on the “Grievance Processes” page found on the student portal. Students who deem their issue not solved at the institutional level and who wish to file a complaint regarding the University may do so by contacting the New York State Portal Entity Contact for NC-SARA:
