2026-27 Reaffirmation of Accreditation

In 2024, Stanislaus State formed a WASC Steering Committee composed of faculty, staff, and students. The work of the Steering Committee was facilitated by the AVP for Academic Affairs and Accreditation Liaison Officer and the WSCUC Writing Team. The Steering Committee was divided into subgroups by Standard and worked to gather information from across the campus community and develop a draft for review in Spring 2026. The campus will submit the report to WSCUC in summer 2026, host an off-site review in October 2026, and an on-site visit in March 2027.
