The U.S. college where I obtained my master’s degree was accredited when I graduated but then lost its accreditation a few years later. Can I use this degree to qualify for a PERM position that requires a master’s degree?

Answer

If the college was accredited at the time the degree was conferred, the degree typically can be used to meet a PERM position’s degree requirements. (20.Aug.2025)
