The FAAP has granted Institutional Re-Accreditation status to Central Philippine as recommended by the ACSCU-ACI. Institutional accreditation is the highest certification that can be given to an educational institution.

The Federation of Accrediting Agencies of the Philippines (FAAP) has granted Institutional Re-Accreditation status to Central Philippine University effective September 2019-2022. The official letter was received last July 28, 2020 from the ACSCU-Accrediting Council, Inc.

FAAP has granted Institutional Re-Accreditation status to CPU as recommended by the Association of Christian Schools, Colleges, and Universities-Accrediting Agency, Incorporated.
Institutional accreditation is the highest certification that can be given to an educational institution after a consideration of the university’s number of individual program accreditations and the result of an overall evaluation of the quality of its facilities, services, and faculty.

The university is also one of the few institutions granted with a full autonomous status by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED). CHED granted again the Autonomous Status of CPU starting June 1, 2019 to May 31, 2021.

CHED has entitled CPU as Center of Excellence in Business, Administration and Agriculture and Center of Development in Chemical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering and Teacher Education.
