Business-school accreditation
No business-school accreditation (AACSB, ACBSP, IACBE) is on record. It is optional, and its absence does not make a program illegitimate.
Supplemental accounting accreditation
No separate accounting accreditation is on record. AACSB business accreditation does not mean the accounting program holds AACSB accounting accreditation.
Institutional, business-school and accounting accreditation are three different things, and one never implies another. Each record names its unit and scope as the source gives it.
