What is the basis of the Commission’s decision to accredit or not?
The Commission looks at the school’s application, institutional self study, report from the on-site evaluation visit, the school’s response to the visit report, annual report information, record of complaints, information on default rates, program reviews or other government information, information from third parties, and other relevant and trustworthy information. If accreditation already has been deferred or denied, the Commission also looks at the school’s response to the reasons for deferral, or at the appeal document and appeal hearing if there were any.
