What is an HBCU?
“…any historically black college or university that was established prior to 1964,
whose principal mission was, and is, the education of black Americans, and that is
accredited by a nationally recognized accrediting agency or association
determined by the Secretary [of Education] to be a reliable authority as to the
quality of training offered or is, according to such an agency or association,
making reasonable progress toward accreditation.”
