The periodic reaccreditation process with the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE) has begun. Every eight years, Ithaca College is required to submit a Self-Study Report, followed by a campus visit by an MSCHE board of examiners.

The Self-Study is our opportunity to tell our story and show who we are, how we’ve come through some challenging times together, and how we are poised to move forward in our continuing efforts to provide our students with rewarding intellectual and co-curricular experiences that support them to be successful personally, academically, and professionally.

Students Help us tell IC's Story!

We are still seeking a few more student student volunteers for our working groups. No voice is too small, no expertise is necessary, all experience is appreciated. Take a moment to complete the interest form below for working group volunteers. Groups are organized by MSCHE standards.  Learn more about the standards and our Co-Chairs here.
