Overview

In Fall 2023, Marywood launched its next 8-year reaccreditation self-study process. Between 2023 and 2026, groups of Marywood faculty and staff will conduct extensive institutional research, analysis, and reflection, and complete a comprehensive Self-Study Report. The report will be peer-reviewed by our regional accrediting body, the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE). Upon successful review, Marywood will be reaccredited through 2034.

As a MSCHE accredited institution, Marywood is expected to demonstrate compliance with the MSCHE Accreditation Standards and Requirements of Affiliation. MSCHE's newly updated standards emphasize alignment of institutional mission with priorities and planning, as well as the use of evidence and assessment with regards to resource allocation and stewardship. 

This process affords Marywood, as a community, an opportunity to showcase how we continually strive to achieve our Core Value of Excellence, as well as our dedication to our Mission.
