Clark College was founded as a private, two-year junior college in 1933 and was granted initial accreditation in 1937 based upon a visit by a committee of five professors from the University of Washington.

The college received accreditation from the Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities in 1948 and has maintained that standing, through periodic reviews, to the present.
