History
The North Central Association (NCA) began in 1895 when 36 administrators of schools, colleges, and universities that were in midwestern states met. The NCA’s first objective was to establish close relationships between colleges and secondary schools. The states involved was eventually expanded to 19 states that were engaged in having institutions of higher education. The NCA lasted through 2014 when it was merged into AdvancED and the Higher Learning Commission
