Per the WASC website, University of the People was granted candidate status:
https://www.wscuc.org/institutions/university-people
Per WASC: "Candidacy is limited to four years and is granted only when an institution can demonstrate that it is likely to become accredited during the four-year period. This means that UoPeople can receive RA as soon as 2022 or as late as 2025." There is also a visit from WASC that is scheduled to take place next year.
I know that there are plans for additional masters programs on the short horizon, including one in computer science, so this is good news.
