MSCHE Self-Study Approach

The ASL video and the English text on this page are the same message offered bilingually.

The adoption of a Standards-Based Approach will enable Gallaudet University to confirm its alignment with the seven standards of accreditation as well as the requirements of affiliation and compliance with federal regulations. As we prepared for the current MSCHE Self-Study, Gallaudet considered which Self-Study Model would be the most useful at this stage in our history. We determined that a Standards-Based Approach would be most effective in addressing issues of importance to the university. We are also mindful of the campus-wide focus on the progress and next steps of The Gallaudet Promise. The current MSCHE Self-Study provides an opportunity for the Gallaudet community to analyze the university’s strengths and the effectiveness of practices related to The Gallaudet Promise and to assess areas in which the university might benefit from changes.
