here’s a news item of interest about Temple Univ accreditation

http://www.temple.edu/temple_times/2-2-06/accreditation.html

Accreditation tends to be regional, and must be renewed periodically.

Hope this helps.

There are a number of accrediting agencies depending i\n part the area of th country that the school is in and the different subjects or schools that are part of the University.

I have heard of Temple and know that it has a number of Schools, about 30,00 students and has a large percentage of it staff hold a Ph.D. I think that it is a reliable school but suggest that you check anyways.

Public universities in the US will be accredited. Temple is a state university and has a good reputation. It is the third best public university in Pennsylvania — after Penn State and Pittsburgh.
