If accreditation is granted, the next on-site visit is scheduled for five years following the semester in which the first accreditation visit occurred.

In cases where the UAB grants provisional accreditation solely because of concerns with test scores, the UAB will require submission of documentation that addresses the unmet standard within two years* of the semester that the provisional accreditation decision was granted. If documentation is submitted under these terms, the UAB will decide to (1) continue accreditation or (2) revoke accreditation. If accreditation is continued, the next on-site visit is scheduled for five years following the semester in which the accreditation visit occurred.

Following a focused visit that occurs as a result of a UAB decision to accredit with conditions, this accreditation decision indicates that the unit has not sufficiently addressed the unmet standard(s).

For additional circumstances under which accreditation can be revoked , please see NCATE’s Revocation Policy.
