MSCHE Reports and Documents
Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø community members may access historic documents from Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø’s prior MSCHE self study processes from 1988 through the most recent.
MSCHE Self-Study Reports (Restricted Access)
The Self-Study allows the Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø community to carry out its own in-depth review of current practices, to assess against the standards of peer institutions and to measure progress against Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø's own aspirations. Through reflection and discussion about current achievements and challenges, the university can develop its own recommendations for future growth and improvement.
The Self-Study process culminates with an on-campus review by an evaluation team composed of external peer evaluators. The valuation team visits the campus to assess Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø with respect to the MSCHE standards, which has numerous elements or benchmarks that must be satisfied to qualify for re-accreditation.
Periodic Review Report (Restricted Access)
MSCHE discontinued the requirement to submit a Periodic Review Report (PRR) and instead institutions submit an Annual Institutional Update (AIU).
The PRR, previously due five years after the decennial self-study and reaffirmation of accreditation, provided a retrospective, current and prospective analysis of the institution. Each report contains six required sections including an executive summary and Âé¶¹¹ÙÍø responses to recommendations, and institutional analysis and insights resulting from assessment and planning processes.
