Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ has received official notice from the Middle States Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE) that it has reaffirmed the college\u2019s accreditation. \u00a0With this reaffirmation of accreditation, the next on-site evaluation is scheduled for 2027-2028.<\/p>\n
The MSCHE is a voluntary, non-governmental membership association that defines, maintains, and promotes educational excellence across institutions with diverse missions, student populations, and resources. It examines each institution as a whole and performs peer evaluation and regional\u00a0accreditation of colleges and universities in the Mid-Atlantic United States.<\/p>\n
The reaffirmation comes following a two-year self-study process involving participation from staff, faculty and administration across all divisions of the campus, as well as a multiple-day, on-site visit from an MSCHE evaluation team in April.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Trocaire community took on the re-accreditation self-study process with meticulousness, readily engaging in a sweeping evaluation of the college\u2019s mission, institutional priorities, practices and outcomes across all areas,\u201d said Trocaire President Dr. Bassam Deeb. \u201cWe are pleased with the Commission\u2019s assessment that we are complying with all its standards and that Trocaire\u2019s commitment to continuous improvement and institutional excellence has been reaffirmed.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
