Policy A.3.o Reporting Deadlines

Policy A.3.o. Reporting Deadlines. For programs actively engaged in the reaffirmation of accreditation review process, accredited status will not lapse, provided that:

• The program has made timely and adequate report submissions in accordance with the reporting deadlines, and
• The program is in good standing for fees.

The Board reserves the right to interrupt a reaffirmation of accreditation review process in instances:

• Where programs do not adhere to the established time frames for report submissions;
• Where programs do not submit reports that sufficiently describe and document compliance with the accreditation standards; and/or
• Where significant compliance concerns with the standards become apparent during the review.

Failure on a program’s part to submit an application, application fee, and self-study report for reaffirmation of accreditation by the established due date may result in a gap in accredited status.
