FEPAC Accepting Accreditation Applications for 2025-26 Consideration
The Forensic Science Education Programs Accreditation Commission (FEPAC) is currently accepting applications for forensic science, forensic digital evidence, and crime scene investigations programs for review during the 2025 review cycle.
FEPAC's primary mission is to maintain and enhance the quality of forensic science education through a formal evaluation and accreditation system for college-level academic programs that lead to a baccalaureate or graduate degree.
FEPAC accredits forensic science education programs that lead to a Bachelor or Master of Science degree in forensic science or in a natural or computer science with a forensic science concentration. FEPAC also accredits programs that lead to a Bachelor of Science degree in crime scene investigations. Eligible programs must be located in a regionally accredited institution of higher education that requires state, province, or equivalent approval.
For additional information on accreditation and detailed FEPAC requirements, please review the FEPAC Accreditation Standards. Detailed accreditation information and instructions can be accessed by visiting the FEPAC accreditation webpage and selecting either the Undergraduate application form or the Graduate application form. These links will take you to the FEPAC accreditation application online site (My.Reviewr.com) where you can create an account and start your application.
Please forward your questions to Nicole Zevotek, Accreditation & Outreach Manager (nzevotek@aafs.org).
Deadline for submission of applications is March 1, 2025.
