Middle States Commission on Higher Education Self-Study 2028

The College has begun the Self-Study process in preparation for its upcoming Middle States site visit in Fall 2028. The Self-Study is now a three-year process. which allows us time to assess how we are meeting the Standards for Accreditation and Requirements of Affiliation (14th edition), collect supporting evidence, and develop a thoughtful Self-Study Report.

The Self-Study process is led by Dr. Penny Kelly, Vice President for Academic Affairs and Accreditation Liaison Officer (ALO), and will be co-chaired by Dr. Kimberly McLain, AVP/Dean of Health Sciences & Institutional Effectiveness and Dr. Lee Heron, Professor, Business Department.

Check back to this website often to learn more about the Self-Study process as we move forward!
