University Partnerships and Accreditation

University Partnerships

The National Hispanic University maintains several vital partnerships in the Silicon Valley. A key partnership is the NHU/San Jose State University partnership. This is an articulation agreement between the two universities establishing joint enrollment opportunities and collaborative programs and services designed to prepare future leaders. Students interested in majors not offered by NHU may wish to transfer to SJSU after completing their general education requirements.

Additionally, we have important partnerships with San Jose City College, Evergreen Valley College, Foothill and DeAnza College District. Furthermore, we have sustained important partnerships with NASA/Ames, Santa Clara County Office of Education and with several community serving non-profits and corporate entities.
