Cheyney University, the oldest historically Black college (HBCU) in the United States, is no longer on probation after the Middle States Commission on Higher Education placed the school on probation last November.

Cheyney University, the oldest historically Black college in the United States is no longer on probation. According to the Middle States Commission on Higher Education, the university has had its accreditation reaffirmed after the commission placed the school on probation last November due to alleged "insufficient evidence" that it was in compliance with multiple university standards.

This current Commission decision is consistent with the assessment of three separate MSCHE-appointed peer evaluator teams that visited Cheyney’s campus between February 2023 and April 2024 and formally reported that Cheyney appears to meet the Commission’s Standards of Accreditation and Requirements of Affiliation.
