UNC to learn accreditation status next month Posted May 15, 2015 UNC will learn next month where it stands with the accreditation agency Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS) in wake of the Wainstein report on academic fraud. SACS President Dr. Belle Wheelan told ABC11 on Thursday, "the board decisions will be made public the afternoon of June 11." SACS first put the university on notice in 2011 when claims of academic impropriety first surfaced. (ABC 11)
