This guide gives you a clear view of Maestro’s accreditations and the current approval status of its programs.
</aside>
Maestro includes two accredited schools — Maestro College and Maestro University — both offering programs built to meet strong academic and federal standards. Below is a summary of each institution’s current accreditation status.
Maestro University is accredited by the Distance Education Accrediting Commission (DEAC) — a nationally recognized accreditor approved by the U.S. Department of Education.
You can verify Maestro University's accreditation in the Department of Education's database at DAPIP: Maestro University — or by searching for Maestro University in the DEAC Directory of Accredited Institutions.
Upon completing your degree at Maestro College, you may continue to relevant degree programs at Maestro University through a structured pathway designed to keep you moving forward.
Maestro College (formerly Peloton College) — is accredited by the Council on Occupational Education (COE) — a nationally recognized accreditor approved by the U.S. Department of Education.
You can verify this in the Department of Education's Database of Accredited Postsecondary Institutions and Programs (DAPIP) under the Maestro College record—or by searching for Maestro College in the COE Member Institution Directory.

Please note that DAPIP includes both current and historical accreditations. Any older listings referencing the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges and Schools (ACICS) are archival only. The current, valid accreditation is with the Council on Occupational Education (COE).
</aside>
Maestro College is accredited by the Council on Occupational Education (COE), its official accrediting agency. The probation note you might see in federal databases reflects past financial reporting issues — from before Maestro College joined the Maestro group in late 2025. Since then, these issues have been fully resolved, and the College now meets all compliance standards. The institution continues to operate as a fully accredited member of the COE.

Understanding probation status
In accreditation terms, probation does not mean a loss of accreditation. It’s a temporary status that shows a school is addressing specific conditions set by its accreditor — usually about administrative or financial documentation, not academic quality. During probation, a school stays fully accredited, and all degrees, transcripts, and credentials stay valid and recognized.
</aside>
Maestro College remains fully accredited by the Council on Occupational Education (COE). Your enrollment, coursework, and credentials are fully valid and recognized. The historical probation note does not affect you or your academic record in any way. We include this information in Maestro’s Terms of Use to stay fully transparent about the college’s accreditation history.
