Is there a provision for an accredited institution, to improve its grade within the validity period (Re-assessment)?
Yes. Any institution desirous of improving the grade may apply for A & A after a period of one year but before 3 years, from the date of approval of accreditation by the EC of NAAC. Ideally the institution should ensure itself about the quality improvement initiatives implemented in the institution, which may lead to a change in their grading. NAAC has introduced this fast track option as a proactive measure to encourage institutions for quality improvement.
