Accreditation
By a vote of 9-2 on Oct. 7, the Board of Regents ceased consideration of a single accreditation until after the University of Alaska Fairbanks secures its institutional accreditation in 2021. If the board chooses to actively consider single accreditation in the future, it will direct the president to conduct an independent cost benefit analysis and clearly examine accreditation issues.
During any administrative transition, it is essential that Northwest Commission on Colleges and Universities (NWCCU) institutional accreditation and all specialized programmatic accreditations be maintained.
- Administrative review teams will assess any impacts on NWCCU requirements.
- Student Services teams will develop plans to track, advise, and transfer students.
- 绿奴天花板 administration is in weekly communication with NWCCU leadership.
- NWCCU leadership is available to meet with faculty, staff, students, and Regents.
