Education: Transferring Credits

New Haven's academic program is US accredited through NAAS, the most prominent accreditation body in our region and part of the largest regional accreditation system in the US. This is the same accreditation body that approves all major US universities and school systems. Our academic team is experienced in working with the education systems of other countries to ensure that credits are transferable to our students' home countries.

SEVP: International Student and Exchange Visitor Program

We are approved by the US federal government to accept international students through SEVP. Our admissions staff can help parents of international students ensure that they have the correct visa and have registered properly with SEVP through the SEVIS database. Once enrolled, we will help you maintain SEVP approved status throughout your child's enrollment.
