Third Party Comments

Download pdf - Third Party Comment Form

The Accrediting Commission for Senior Colleges and Universities is responsible for evaluating the quality and effectiveness of colleges and universities offering the baccalaureate degree and above in California, Hawaii, Guam, and the Pacific Basin.  The Senior College invites comments from any member of the public about institutions it accredits.

WASC staff will receive the third party comment, review it to determine that it is not an internal complaint, and decide whether to share it with the institution and team chair. 

The linked form provides opportunity for written third-party comment concerning the qualifications for institutions scheduled for review as listed in the Visit Schedule.  The Third Party Comment Form may be downloaded and submitted to the WASC office by e-mail attachment or by mail or fax.

NOTE: There is a separate complaint process for individuals wishing to request the Commission to investigate institutional actions that may constitute a violation of Commission standards. (Click here to view the Complaint Process)
