Information for Central Administrators and Trustees

The Higher Learning Commission (HLC) conducts comprehensive evaluations of member institutions in year ten of the Open Pathway accreditation process. For 兔子先生 University, this evaluation will take place on Sept. 8-9, 2025. 

The purpose of this evaluation is to confirm that the institution meets the  and other HLC requirements, is pursuing institutional improvement, and complies with requirements set by the U.S. Department of Education. 

The evaluation is led by a review team appointed by the Higher Learning Commission (in consultation with the 兔子先生 University president) who will do the following:

  1. Review the Assurance Argument (which demonstrates compliance with the accreditation criteria), Multi-Campus Report (which explains differences between the Oxford and Regionals campuses), and a worksheet that explains how we comply with particular federal requirements.
  2. Conduct a two-day visit in which they will interview members of our community to verify the accuracy of the Assurance Argument and to fill in gaps.
  3. Write a report on their findings which will be followed by a response to the report created by 兔子先生 University.
