Know what each school badge means
Badge colours help you scan the directory quickly. Always open the school page and read the dated programme record before making a decision.
School-status badges
Full accreditation
The matched programme has full accreditation recorded in the December 2025 approved-schools list.
Confirm the exact campus and programme before paying because accreditation can change.
Provisional accreditation
The programme has provisional accreditation, which is different from full accreditation.
Check the decision date and confirm the current position with the regulator.
Accreditation issue
The record contains a serious warning such as withdrawn accreditation, denied accreditation, or an admission embargo.
Do not pay or accept admission until the exact programme status has been confirmed officially.
Check status
NMCNCHECK cannot represent the programme with a single blue, yellow, or red result.
Open the school page, read the explanation, and verify with the appropriate regulator.
Hover, focus, or tap
Hover over a school tick with a mouse, focus it with a keyboard, or tap it on a phone to see the status attached to that school. Tap it again, or move focus away, to close the message.
Important limitation
A badge summarizes the best record currently matched by NMCNCHECK. It is not a guarantee of present approval, admission availability, or eligibility for professional registration. Status may differ by programme and campus.
When anything is unclear, use the approved-schools link on the school page and confirm directly before paying fees.
