History of Accreditation Dates

Graduate Education Programs in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology

ASHA has offered an accreditation program for graduate education programs in audiology and speech-language pathology since the 1960s. Today, the accreditation activities for programs that prepare individuals to enter the professions are conducted by the Council on Academic Accreditation in Audiology and Speech-Language Pathology (CAA).

This lists identifies the universities and colleges, by state, that have participated in the accreditation of master's and clinical doctoral programs on their campuses since 1965. The dates reflect the years in which accreditation or candidacy status was held by that audiology or speech-language pathology program. If you have questions about any specific program's dates, please contact the Academic Accreditation unit at accreditation@asha.org.

The official list [PDF] of the current CAA-accredited and candidate programs can be accessed online.
