National Council State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement

Idaho is a member of the National Council State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement (NC-SARA) and College of Eastern Idaho (CEI) is an approved NC-SARA institution. The State Authorization Reciprocity Agreement (SARA) is a voluntary agreement among its member states and U.S. territories that establishes comparable national standards for interstate offering of postsecondary distance education courses and programs. As a member we adhere to established standards for offering college level distance education and online courses and associates degrees in all member states.

SARA policy is intended to be consistent with federal law and is therefore subject to change based on federal rulemaking.
