The University was accorded 5 star status in 2001 and ‘A’ grade status in April 2012 by NAAC. However, Mumbai University’s NAAC rating expired four years ago. The accreditation status is valid for a period of five/ seven years as per the certificate issued by NAAC to a university.

NAAC is developed to assess and grade institutions of higher education accreditation and is mandatory for applying for funds from Central agencies.

The assessment procedure is based on a set of seven criteria - circular aspects, teaching-learning and evaluation, research, innovation and extension, infrastructure and learning resources, student support and progression, governance, leadership and management and institutional values and best practices.
