Probation is an active accreditation status and those entering a program that is on probation are entering a program that is accredited. If the program remains on probation or is removed from probation by the time of your graduation, you would be graduating from an accredited program. In the past, the NCCPA allowed graduates to sit for the PANCE exam as long as the program from which they graduated was accredited at any point during the students’ enrollment. This policy changed in 2003 and in order to be eligible to take the PANCE, students must successfully complete a program that was accredited at the time the student matriculated. It is best to check with the NCCPA concerning exam eligibility criteria.

Congrats to everyone who received interviews and acceptances.
 
Maybe I don't understand correctly, but I'm worried about the probationary status of the program which was outlined in an earlier post. 
 
Can a current student or anyone share what's being done to correct the issues?
