Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC)

The Accrediting Commission for Schools, Western Association of Schools and Colleges (ACS/WASC) is one of six regional accrediting associations in the U.S. It provides accreditation of public and private universities, colleges, secondary and elementary schools in California and Hawaii, in addition to East Asia.

The International Schools of North America (SNA) in Ho Chi Minh City was fully accredited by WASC in January 2021. Students who with us will leave with a WASC stamped High School Diploma after Grade 12. The WASC stamped diploma is recognised by many top international universities around the world. Therefore, the chances of an SNA graduate being accepted by a top university has increased significantly.
