Certain programs at Old Dominion Univerity (ODU) require specialized accreditation to maintain compliance with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges (SACSCOC) standards. This includes completing a self-study report.
To adequately support your program's accreditation review, please complete the self-study preparation assistance form and submit it 18 months before the self-study due date.
Institutional Effectiveness & Assessment (IE&A) should receive a draft copy of the self-study report 6-8 weeks prior to the final submission date for review and feedback.聽Signature requests must be submitted to the President no less than 2 weeks before the self-study due date.
