Institutional Accreditation is a process of continuous improvement with a strong focus on student learning outcomes and institutional effectiveness. Regular and ongoing evaluation of the University’s progress in meeting its learning goals is a part of every institution’s accreditation. The University will host a peer review team from the Higher Learning Commission in March of 2021 for the next Comprehensive Evaluation review.
