Tusculum College will be reviewed for reaffirmation of its accreditation with the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools during the 2009-2010 academic year.
Tusculum College was first accredited by SACS in 1926. In 2000, Tusculum College undertook its most recent 10-year reaffirmation review, and was approved for continuation of accreditation in 2003.
In 2001, the Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools adopted new accreditation standards, the Principles of Accreditation. The Principles of Accreditation established a two-phase process for accreditation:
Tusculum College's Compliance Certification is due on September 10, 2009. Its QEP is due in early 2010.

A timeline of events was approved, and responsibility was established for each of the 89 items in the compliance certification. The Leadership Team attended training conducted by SACS on June 9, 2008.
The current SACS Leadership Team includes:
The Quality Enhancement Plan Steering Committee was formed in Fall 2007 and included representatives from faculty, staff and students from the Greeneville, Tri-Cities and Knoxville sites
