Naugatuck Valley Community College Danbury Campus has officially been recognized as a campus by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges.  More than a thousand students attend the center each semester.

Last May, the Connecticut Board of Regents for Higher Education approved NVCC's proposal to offer credit certificates and degrees in Danbury.   Last Monday, the accrediting body told NVCC that the application to become a full service campus was accepted. 

NVCC officials say the college continues to make progress on its search for larger space in Danbury, which they hope to have by the fall with relocation of the campus next spring.  Right now the campus is on Main Street.
