2025 Self Study

Middle States reaccreditation begins with an institutional self-study led by a steering committee and a variety of working groups and teams. Members are responsible for demonstrating how Fordham has met MSCHE standards across institutional priority areas that the university selects for itself.
Review the Self-Study Report
We invite members of the Fordham community to review the self-study and join us April 6-9 for the Peer Review Team's visit.
Please note: The report is only accessible if you are logged into your Fordham account.
Self-Study Design
To demonstrate compliance with MSCHE Standards for Accreditation and Requirements of Affiliation, we have chosen to use a standards-based approach to ensure that all standards are thoroughly and meaningfully examined, while simultaneously reflecting upon and applying to the University’s institutional priorities. Learn more about our self-study design.
It is our hope that this approach enables the University community to engage in the process and results in a Self-Study that is value- added and inspiring to the University’s ongoing strategic planning process.
