Academics
Pacific Oaks College receives its academic accreditation from the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC), a distinction which the school has laid claim to since the year 1959. The school was recently (2009) served with an Order to Show Cause by WASC, which means that the school must provide the accrediting institution with sufficient reason for why accreditation should continue to be given within no more than a year; otherwise, Pacific Oaks College will cease to receive its accreditation from WASC. At the time of writing this article (early 2010), the timeframe to react to the Order to Show Cause has not expired and the school remains accredited. All degrees granted until such action is resolved bear the mark of an academically accredited institution.
The academic offerings at Pacific Oaks College fall under one of the three following academic divisions: Human Development, Marriage and Family Therapy, and Teacher Education Credentialing.
