MAYFLOWER DIPLOMA & FULLY ACCREDITED BACHELOR’S DEGREE

  • Accreditation from a US Department of Education recognized body is a comprehensive journey, often extending over multiple years. Mayflower Institute, established in 2024, is in the early phase of development and is currently not an accredited institution.
  • We are actively engaging in discussions with an accredited university to establish a consortium agreement. This partnership aims to allow students to earn college credits through Mayflower courses, providing a seamless pathway from a Mayflower Diploma to a fully accredited Bachelor’s Degree in Education.
