375:. Validation with the university is awarded to an institution developing and delivering a programme of study equivalent to the quality and standard followed by the university. The validation made it possible for Trinity to offer degrees from the University of Wales—rather than from Trinity itself—up to the graduate level. To be awarded validation, Trinity was required to document and satisfy all quality assurance standards as outlined by the university, which includes QAA national standards related to the framework for higher education qualifications, program specifications, subject benchmark statements, and code of practice. A validation site visit of Trinity by a panel of assessors appointed by the university was also required for Trinity to demonstrate evidence of the attainment of said standards.
394:(USDE). On October 7, 2011, DETC denied initial accreditation to Trinity citing Trinity's "failure to demonstrate compliance with Standard IX (Financial Responsibility)" as the reason for DETC's denial. Trinity did not appeal DETC's decision, but disagreed with the DETC commissioners' decision, noting the demonstrated confidence of Trinity's banking institution. Trinity's comments also noted that it had complied with all other requirements, including all academic standards, for DETC accreditation and that Trinity would continue seeking accreditation.
361:. The institution provided a self-study report, hosted a team of North Central Association evaluators for a site visit, and expected a second campus visit in autumn 2006. However, Trinity resigned from candidacy status effective October 20, 2006. This choice was made after the HLC continually went back and forth on Trinity, costing multiple thousands of dollars each year. Initially, the reason for being denied accreditation was for course work that was "too challenging", but ultimately Trinity did not have enough "financial stability reserve".
350:. The QAA oversees the academic infrastructure of institutions, which includes frameworks for higher education qualifications, code of practice, subject benchmark statements, and program specifications. When they did decide to transfer the candidacy, students who enrolled prior to 2002 were allowed to finish under the University of Liverpool's "accreditation" logo. In time, the language changed from "accreditation" to "endorsement".
346:. The university did endorse theological courses, and students paid an additional fee for the inclusion. Also, theological programs like counseling were placed in the Faculty of the Arts Program, and it was noted on the University of Liverpool's website at that time. In 2002, Liverpool decided to "transfer the accreditation role to a theologically orientated institution" after consultation with the

At the time of validation in 2007, there was no requirement for the university to work only with accredited institutions.
