is hampton university accredited?

Answer 1

Short answer: yes.
Long answer: for any school if you go to their website (which is easy to google) then they usually say somewhere right on one of the front pages exactly how they are acredited. If you can't find it, then just call them and they will be glad to explain it to you. Also, in the college 'catalog' of courses it always lists the accreditiation. Respectable schools are accredited by what is called "Regional Accreditation" - you can google that, too.
