The institution was granted Candidacy (Candidate for Accreditation) status based on the institution’s self-study, the report and recommendation of the evaluation team, and the response of the institution. After careful evaluation of all of the materials, the Commission determined that the institution is in compliance with the Requirements of Affiliation; it meets the Criteria for Candidacy; and it can be in substantial compliance with the Commission’s Standards for Accreditation within five-years as outlined in the Commission’s Policy on The Meaning of Candidacy. The judgment of “substantial compliance” is a qualitative judgment made by the Commission, consisting of peers and members of the public; in making this judgment the Commission gives principal attention to the statement of the standard for each of the Commission’s Standards for Accreditation. Institutions granted candidacy status will undergo a comprehensive evaluation within five years.
