UVM SELF-STUDY | NEASC Accreditation


Accreditation

How do students, faculty and staff put UVM into words? Click here to answer on the accreditation blog.

During the next 18 months, UVM will carry out a comprehensive effort to describe and define our sense of purpose and place. This institutional self-study will tell us who we are, where we want to go and how we plan to get there. By identifying common themes and communicating them widely, UVM has the opportunity to become an even stronger and more connected community.

The self-study process is a prelude to accreditation by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC) and serves multiple purposes:

  • to assess how well we are pursuing our mission and goals;
  • to evaluate ourselves against a set of 11 standards; and,
  • to demonstrate institutional effectiveness in meeting each of those standards.

Letter from the President A resulting report will be submitted to NEASC in late fall of 2008 and will set the stage for a visit by an Evaluation Team, April 19-22, 2009. Additional information about the accreditation process can be found at http://cihe.neasc.org/.
