Ms. Joanna Russell Page 2 July 10, 2024
In accordance with III.B.6.b. of the Accreditation Manual , the campus is required to undergo a staff verification visit within six months of the date instruction begins. Per the application, instruction is scheduled to begin at this campus on November 18, 2024; therefore, a staff member will contact you to schedule the visit, which will need to occur in ** Spring 2025 . The results of the evaluation will be considered by the Commission at its July 2025 meeting. Following a verification visit, the institution is required to submit a Self-Evaluation Report, date to be determined by ABHES staff based on the expected date of the campus’s first graduates. A full campus inclusion visit is normally conducted within 24 months of the date instruction begins. All information relative to an application, including the Self-Evaluation Report and the visitation report, will be considered by the Commission at its next scheduled meeting. The Commission will be apprised by the Executive Director of any institution or program that undergoes, and is approved for, three substantive changes within any twelve-month period. The Commission will consider the need for a comprehensive evaluation, including a Self-Evaluation Report and Team Visit Report, and accreditation decision by the Commission based upon the nature of the changes, their potential impact on the operation, and the extent to which accumulated changes have so transformed the institution or program that it has, in effect, ceased to operate under the conditions upon which the grant of accreditation was originally based, as outlined in III.B.3. of the ABHES Accreditation Manual. The approval of a non-main campus application represents one substantive change for the institution. Commission approval does not constitute eligibility to participate in or comply with Federal Title IV programs. You are advised to research all relevant requirements regarding calculations governing Title IV eligibility, should you wish to participate in Federal Financial Assistance programs. By copy of this letter, ABHES is notifying the Secretary of Education of the United States Department of Education and the relevant state regulatory bodies of this action. Please contact me at (571) 282-0049 or via email at aroope@abhes.org if you have any questions or need assistance. Thank you for keeping ABHES apprised of the changes at your institution.
Sincerely,
Alison Roope Senior Accreditation Specialist
