Accreditation Report

Institutional Accreditation

Southern Illinois University Edwardsville is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, and through the Open Pathway.

In all previous reviews, SIUE met all of the accreditation criteria and federal compliance standards required. SIUE was a long-time participant in the Academic Quality Improvement program (AQIP). In March 2014, SIUE completed the AQIP Quality Checkup. As a result, SIUE received notice that it had provided “strong and clear evidence” regarding the Criteria for Accreditation and the associated core component. No accreditation concerns were found and the institution met the Commission’s requirements for federal compliance. SIUE underwent final review for reaffirmation during 2014-2015 and received its formal re-affirmation of accreditation in March 2015.

Along with this reaffirmation, SIUE had the opportunity to declare a new pathway for accreditation through HLC. SIUE elected to move to the Open Pathway where SIUE’s reporting and quality improvement initiatives will change. The University moved into a 10-year accreditation cycle with an Assurance Review or comprehensive evaluation in year four. The Assurance Review was successfully completed in August 2019. The University is to submit its Quality Initiative proposal by June 1, 2022 with a subsequent Quality Initiative Report due by June 1, 2024. The next reaffirmation of accreditation for the University will take place in 2024 – 2025.
